With the season well and truly done and dusted I hope the players are focussed on important matters such as what they will wear to mad Monday and not some junk time game v North Melbourne. 

My call is that we will have a Game of Thrones theme with Clarry as Brianne of Tar, Gus as Ramsay Bolton and Pruessy as Hodor. 

Any suggestions re themes and costumes?

Not sure they deserve a Mad Monday this year. I've been Mad almost every Monday. I don't want to see any off season holiday partying pics either. I only want to see photos of them in the gym or running up a mountain.

I agree Kelpien, and as for Inside Melbourne podcast the club can replace it with the players practising skills.

If its a fantasy theme, i suggest they go dressed as footballers.

Some players don't want to come back from their holidays to attend the Bluey, so it's an absolute fantasy if anyone thinks they're going to be training on mad Monday.

I know we're all having a bit of a laugh, but everyone needs a break

No one is suggesting that they train on Mad Monday. I'm not even suggesting that they don't have a break for the holidays. I just do not want to see them galavanting it up on social media like they're champions of the world. Many should be ashamed of the season that they had. Go away. Recharge. And come back on day 1 of the preseason in tip top condition. And by day 1 I mean even the senior players should front up on first to 3rd years day. No [censored] excuses.

Except for Max. He can do as he pleases but even he will rock up on day one because he doesn't have a [censored] pea heart. He has the heart of a stallion.

Yep, absolutely agree mate. My comment wasn't directed at you, just read your previous comment and realized it may have come across that way, sorry about that, wasn't intended.

No problem. I just wanted to clear up my comments. Fired up this morning. Depressing that we've gone from destination club to destination zero.

I suggest the club goes with a Titanic theme for mad monday. with Goodwin arranging the deck chairs, the Captains wrestling over control of the ships wheel, assistants jumping overboard, and the passengers(players) out to save themselves and fighting for a spot in the lifeboats. abandon ship!

They should dress up as competent, skilled, committed, caring footballers.. that's a real stretch though.

Unfollow them

Stop logging into your app

Do whatever you need to do to allow them some space, too.

We do agree on one thing - recharge, but come back on day one, ready to go.

The Mad Monday celebrations should be conducted like a wake and not a dress up celebration. Celebrations are for winners. Not many can hold their heads high this year.

What's to say it hasn't been seen as a disgrace? It's been terrible

No one's misguided into thinking it was a great year

They need a break, regroup and get better

No Jumbo. We the Members need a break and regroup. 

The Players can start with Burgess on Sunday morning as far as i am concerned. 

2019 was completely wasted 

Zurich and Jaguar must be thrilled

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
