    I normally have a preferred team that I’d like to see win, either a mates team or one that hasn’t won one for ages, so I certainly don’t mind people jumping on our journey. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Hell, if we make the GF I’d be happy if a lot of neutral supporters that will be able to attend, wherever the game is played, support us loudly. 💪🏼🔵🔴

    i for one welcome everyone who wants to join our bandwagon

    the hallmark of successful sides is how many interlopers switch and clamber aboard

    i want our membership up to that 75k target; if people wanna join us now we can sniff success, the more the merrier

    I had some fondness for Carlton and North because of Barassi.  And some of my mates followed the Tigers so I was on that bandwagon in the 70's.

    And there is much goodwill to the MFC simply because we are called Melbourne.

    All aboard.

    Just enjoy every moment, and if we are able to win it this year, buy everything after our GF win😉

    If other supporters want to cheer us to a win, then let them come😊

    What have I done wrong? I haven’t even made an appearance in the thread yet? 😎😉

    We’ll have a ‘fairytale year’ where we aren’t the object of blatant hostility. If we win and become a dynasty, the Hatorade will flow thick and fast.

    We’re here to embrace the joy, not wallow in collected resentments. I say drink it in!

    This is dumb. You want to build the club and shore up its existence?

    Get over seeing new faces - we need them.

    AND get used to seeing some old faces that you don’t like seeing! 

    Everyone welcome.

    what do you mean mate? CBF What does that mean?

    Replied and then decided to delete it because I couldn't be "effed" dealing with it tbh.

    Bizarre thread mate. I was happy for the Dogs, I was happy for Richmond (the first time), I think it's great that other fans want us to do well.

    Yep - the more, the merrier, I say. Get the Goodwin-Crows connection going strong this week, to get as many SA neutrals behind us on Sat night.

    Anyone who wants to support us is welcomed. As a neutral fan you’d surely be backing us and that’s great.

    The last time we had a genuine bandwagon was 87 I reckon. I welcome every. single. one. 
    For the older more bruised of us, like myself, we can take a particular pleasure that only those who have suffered know. But every sungle supporter who turns up at this hour brings a bit more joy to my heart.

    Any chance SANFL Norwood supporters will turn up on Saturday night to give us some support?

    I understand that newcomers will not understand our experience of enduring disappointment for 57 years; but whatever, everyone’s welcome.
    It is, however, sweeter for those of us who have suffered the most.

    Considering most of our games will be watched live by neutrals I hope they all jump on our bandwagon and shake whatever stadium we play in.

    I can understand the sentiment. I went week in and week out when we got thumped every week. When you are down and out out and get txts from people hanging [censored] on you. They won't be coming to my party.

    There are lots of mates that sympathized with me over that period. They are welcome on the bandwagon and are jumping on.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
