Unfortunately, I cannot physically attend the Melbourne Football Club Annual General Meeting tonight (20/2/2023) at 6:30pm.

Hopefully it will be live streamed?

Obviously, there are some important items on the Agenda for this AGM.

All I respectfully request, is if someone could please ask the Melbourne Football Club Board what is happening with our Home Base? We as Melbourne Demons members deserve an update on it's progress.

    Regarding the Home Base Pert spoke for a long time and had no answer.Crapped on about how difficult it was to make a decision.And that he couldn’t tell us what the options were because it would breach confidentiality!

    Can you tell us which $20 - 50 odd multi million dollar projects that you started with state, federal and council from the ground up, as you think that is easy to do? I hope you understand the word confidentiality? or should they just let everyone know and get all parties to withdraw from the talks.

    Translation for:  "We've really not progressed as well as we would have like and there is currently no option available at this point".

    Perhaps he could tell us which options they have explored and the time frame they are working to, to make a decision.

    I watched Kate Roffe speech and although I enjoyed the content I thought that Kate sounded a bit edgy did something happen??

    I couldn’t get into the livestream so am awaiting for the other speeches to be posted on website?

    I very much doubt much progress has been made. I hope i am wrong, but i don’t think so. Not blaming anyone. Just reality. There is nothing to tell….

    Ok when state, federal and council money or approval for such projects are needed especially in this climate money wise all parties will not want information let out, but regarding the Caulfield project there was a delay and still might be regarding issues with the council and community groups and other parties, personally the only people moaning is a minority section of members, the club has Casey Fields and its set up AMMi park for gym and pools and the admin is there as well, we also won a Premiership with these same conditions, I wonder if these people seem to think there will be a social section for the club in any new amenities, now you can believe Pert or just come out and say he's lying instead of innuendo comments.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
