Wow that's wrong with our supporters, if things aren't going right for us, they boycott the team...

Its fans like you that seem to revel in the club performing poorly. "Oh, the team is playing badly, so I'm not gonna go. They can bugger off". That is fair weather supporting, and it stinks. If you support a club, and indeed are a member of them, you turn up to their games and scream your support for them. Anything less is criminal, no matter what the state of the team.

Ill be there

backs to the wall stuff..

and our first win of the season coming up

thats exactly right......

I think a few of you members in Victoria take going to most games for granted - win, lose or draw! What about us up here in QLD who get to see the boys once or maybe twice a year? I'd kill to see all the games at the G or anywhere else in Melbourne! Get to the ground and get the boys home for their first win! Someone needs to stay on board! I know I will!

I'll be there, i consider myself a tragic supporter who just comes back for more. But mostly i think about how i stuck with them through the times of 97, 99, 01, and 03 :( and although i don't think it made a huge difference on the field, i know they must've appreciated any support they could get.

NO Headland, no Carr - starting to balance up - we just need a severe bout of gastro to go through the Dockers and we will be right!!!!!

If we can't win this week - remember the Saints made the GF after being zip and 4 in '97 - oh, but then they lost to the Crows........:-(

what goes around comes around .

But when will the ultimate good come around to us!?

As you say though, you can have good without the bad, hopefully the good won't be too far away.

Go hard or go home. I am one to not lie. I could have said "oh course im going" but i remain truthfull. I am guttered with the team and offered to go if i see some young kids but playing players out of form is just sheer stupidity and i will not stand for it as a supporter. I have paid for my membership so melb have lost nothin...i guess spotless catering have but thats it. Im no different to thoes who leave at half time and trust me many did on sunday. I like 1.5 hrs from the g so get over yourself and realise i am a supporter - both finantually and non financially

Oh and one more thing. At least im not attacking a 2nd AFL year player in Bate. Get over yourself

I hope Melbourne's success isn't contigent on the crowd.

Maybe ND can trot that one out at a pre-match.

:( you have to have the bad times to really enjoy the good times.

l love the club and l will be their .

just sit back and wait their is light a the end of the tunnel.

what goes around comes around .

43 years is a fairly bad run. I'm looking forward to 5 consecutive flags.

I'll be there in the Redlegs section behind the goals AS ALWAYS. I couldn't live with the thought of Melbourne winning & I wasn't there.

Count me in too....same area ...Redlegs level 1 behind the goals.

Did I hit a nerve?

Two things -

1. Not having a go at you personally, apologise if I insinuated that. But your point about the fact that the club loses nothing by your not being there is a mute point. If 5,000 supporters share your attitude, then the club loses support on the day. Imagine you play your heart out for the team, and look around the ground and see 15,000 instead of 20,000. It makes a difference. Your policy on the young kids is another silly point. The season is not lost at 0-3 as we saw last year. To call for the team to just give up at this stage of the year is wrong.

2. I have never "attacked" Matty Bate. I stated that his confidence seems to be down and that his form probably doesn't warrant him being in the team. I don't think too many people would disagree with that.

I can't believe you guys are even debating on being there or not.....they are our team and we as supporters have a duty to support them through each of the hurdles and also the joys of victory. I can tell you I have sat through much worse in the years 1996 and 1997....try fighting off a merger....losing match after match....

I'll be there on sunday as I have been for many years. It's just a mattar of time before we notch up our first win and charge towards the top end of the table.

I think we'll turn it around on Sunday....C'mon guys, get there and support these guys.

Go Dees.

One of the great stupid posts. Well done Boy, and 'boy' is the key word.

Grow up. We're all disappointed with what's happened but what's the point of your post?

Have you actually got anything constructive to say or do you simply want to see your name in lights and get responses from more informed posters than yourself.

Until you make an observation worth considering your opinion is fool's gold and a waste of cyber space.

Yep I'll be there too! Life is not just about choosing the good times but walking the journey through the ups and downs. True blue!

Mind you it does feel good when we win and an empty feeling when we lose. I see my role as a supporter is to be there for the team- the support crew in the outer.

He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.
