Come out and support on Sunday



Recommended Posts

We cannot expect our team to perform when the supporters arent either. Soon as the going gets tough our supporters disappear and start calling for Daniher's blood. Instead everyone should stop the finger pointing and get out and support the team. The lack of supporters in the game against Fremantle was a complete embarassment, it was only round 3 for goodness sakes and already everyone has run screaming in the opposite direction. Show some belief, odds on they will lose on Sunday so what, go and support them, scream, yell do what you have to do, just because their form is poor doesnt mean ours has to be as well.

Mate, I only travel to Melbourne to watch us play our fellow Victorian teams....

There is nothing better than staying here in Adelaide and going down to the pub in Alberton and drinking amongst the Port Adelaide filth! There is a certain adrenaline rush one gets when sitting amongst a bunch of dole-bludging, West End drinking Power supporters whilst wearing my beloved Red 'n Blue and enjoying an ice cold VB!!!

You can tell me I'm not a real suporter for not travelling, but I know the truth!! I pay my premium membership each and every year and travel to Melbourne when I'm not working but I can assure you that I will enjoy the match on Sunday regardless of whether we win or lose and I won't have to be at a silent MCG full of 25 Port supporters and a bunch of Melbourne fans with their hands under their bums to keep warm :)

Mate, i would think that most interstate supporters are excluded from this plea to Dees supporters.

Most of us would like to think that when the chips are down, the team looks to it's supporters for inspiration. If that IS the case than it's no wonder we lost to Freo. We need every able Melbourne supporter (bandwagon or not) to get down to the G this Sunday and help the boys get over the line. Neitz should be back this week and that will bring back half the leadership group of Melbourne, not to mention one of our best Full Forwards of all time.

I will be there, and i hope there'll be much more than 16,000 as well.

I personally would like to think that when the chips are down the team looks deep within themselves and drags out whatever passion they have for the colours they wear and plays like a bunch of blokes willing to give 110% everytime they step onto the ground (that goes for training as well as games)

If the Melbourne players are looking to their supporters for inspiration, then it is no wonder we haven't won a flag for over 40 years!!

I will be there, and i hope there'll be much more than 16,000 as well.

Great to see you will be there supporting the boys through a tough time, but there will be no more than 19,000 there and 25% of them will be Port supporters.... So make sure you and the other Red 'n Blue Army folk make plenty of noise!

I am not being negative, just realistic :(

I wish i could come on sunday and support the boys- but as being an interstate supporter i cant go, even though i have a desire to visit melbourne. But i support the boys any time i can. Although i could not go to the game last saturday due to not being very well, i at least listened and watched the game on TV.

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    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. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
