No wonder thereโ€™s no crowds with these gutter journos supposedly promoting the game.

    Thanks 'Macca', my thoughts exactly.

    What a childish, ridiculous comment...what a DH.

    Goody should have asked where were all the Tigers supporters last nightโ€ฆ

    That's not the reason and you know it. They did not make up this story. MFC players did that all on their own.

    Negativity around the game, is definitely one of the contributing factor to small crowds in my opinion.

    People ย just get sick of it.

    Im not talking about the punch up story specifically as you inferred, because numbers were low before this incidentย

    I'm sure the Dees will post it on their YouTube channel at some point during the day. I will post it here when it goes up.

    Interesting to note that not a single reporter at that press conference (over zoom) has posted anything to twitter as of the writing of this. I bet you if there was something inflammatory in the presser and not the common sense and matter of factness that Goody spoke then they would have been salivating to post about it.

    Exactly ... over 100k members on the back of 3 premierships?ย  Who are the self-satisfied lot?

    But we're the scapegoat/whipping boy and it will remain that way

    Crowds are down right across the board so the AFL has got a real problem on it's hands

    Overall, Simon spoke very well and gave nothing away other than mentioning that the club was handling things and would learn from what had happened

    I don't think they care Macca the money is in the media. Spectators going to games are running a bad last. They will make all the right noises but the money speaks loudest.ย

    What was the crowd numbers last night,ย  I can't see any details on either AFL or the Age site?

    Ultimately, sparse crowds can effect the numbers viewing on TV

    And it could be that those staying away are not staying away for the more obvious reasons (covid, cold weather etc)

    The AFL needs to promote the games in terms of people attending the games

    21,757 as per an Sen article. Crowd numbers have been suspiciously absent for some games on the AFL website. We got more to our Freo (+8,000) and Sydney games (+11,000). Haven't seen the media go hard on the tiger fans yet though.

    Not sure they care.

    iirc Gil's salary/bonuses are primarily based on Revenue.ย  Broadcasting and related sponsor revenue dwarf that of attendance.ย 

    Its a simplistic KPI.ย  I'm sure there are others but not sure game attendance is one or if it is, is a significant KPI.

    Any questions about the QB game or talk of MND?ย  Very disappointing if not as that is what the pc was for.

    Goody does a presser every Friday to talk about the upcoming game, selection, injuries, etc. Whilst MND big freeze fundraising would've been one of the topics asked about, its not necessarily what the presser was for

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterdayโ€™s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown andย  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
