I love when people just assume everyone has a membership and can easily afford one.

To a lot of people 100 or 200 bucks is a lot of dough and as Dazzle has pointed out there are of course always more pressing concerns than a footy membership.

We might be the club of 'cheese platters and skiing',  but not all our supporters are Toorak and Brighton fat cats, in fact the vast majority are not obviously.

Anyways, I did get a membership and the club can keep the money as I  don't really go to games anyway, just get one to help keep the club afloat

Go Dees.

Just our luck that the year we have two genuine home game blockbusters that the coronavirus is going to diminish crowd numbers. Last year we had neither Anzac Eve or QB and blew a $1.5 million ho

I have no problem with people refraining from buying memberships because it's a difficult financial decision for them. Breaking it down into "two coffees per week" is not a fair way of looking at it -

I think he has a few very important issues to deal with right now
So just back it off..

The MFC will go on, it’s a very small cog in this big world. This world is going through something right now that could change everything. I am not suprised because i have thought the Human Population is getting too high

But we have no idea what will happen to things we consider as standard 

It may be years until Large public gatherings are safe...

It's an over reaction. They should quarantine people when they have the flu kills more people. Banning Dazzle is an under reaction even though he has problems and don't think for a minute Melbourne are safe. Melbourne are struggling and the conora virus threatens a lot of clubs existance. Don't think for a second Melbourne can't become extinct, merge with Gold Coast or GWS or even relocate to Tasmania. The AFL doesn't give a stuff about us face it.

I suggest you go back and re-read Dazzle’s response to you where he outlined certain issues he is dealing with closer to both home and his heart. You are starting to look embarrassingly silly.

I have ALWAYS rated Dazzle as an astute football mind and Guru, heart on sleeve MFC person

As an aside, I received a membership and prompt in the mail

RF sitting on my shoulder urged me to buy.

Nothing else needs to be said!

We all struggle in life and this is another test

Pass well Demonlanders

You the world's biggest dill. Well if the club is bankrupt you only have yourself to blame. But what do you care your not a real supporter anyway. An 11 game membership won't break the bank for anyone but you keep on thinking your doing the right thing. Your not a supporter you only come here to start fights. The sooner your banned the better.

You i diot

This comment just proves how you simply you cannot grasp the reality or understanding of how this world functions.

You're sad individual Werride. Life was great when you had me on ignore. Keep it that way.

So he is allowed to bag me but I'm not allowed to respond because his brother has cancer? He's always made it about him. His response to Saty's training reports says it all he starts fights all the time. He knows [censored] about football and is a genuine [censored], that never changes with him. Why people stick up for this germ has got me stuffed and more importantly he's not a supporter.

I just hope when the club calls to refund our membership everyone says keep it because they need it the corona virus could bankrtupt this club. Dazzle is a disgrace I would expect this from him he shouldn't be on this forum.

Just remember you fired the first shot in this "Dee".

Don't go crying like a little [censored] because you are being called out for the stain human that you are.

you can tell by the teams he picks that he does not read reality well. We are all lucky he is not on the match committee, we would have not won a game for years.

I do LOL at his rolling "Casey" team" that he's got going on.

Anyway, this is my last post on this. Thread is Getting derailed.

You are showing ZERO class in this thread matey.

If your mother saw your posts she would probably put you across her knee.

DD said nothing in this thread to deserve your childish carry on, and to ignore the guts of his reason for not caring too much about footy right now is staggering.

Give it a rest.

Good luck selling memberships, many are talking about getting refunds for not being able to go to games. The clubs have to slash 5 MILLION from there spending wow huge amount, who's to get cut Burges, about 25% of the paid staff to be cut, or all take big pay cuts. Rookies cut from list maybe.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
