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.

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.

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.

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    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
