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.

 

 
 

According to the email sent to members it is live steamed:

The Melbourne Football Club Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held at 6.30pm on 20 February 2023 at the Olympic Room, Gate 3, Level 2 at the MCG.  The AGM will also be livestreamed for members who wish to watch it but cannot attend.

There was, is working now


A pathetic streaming attempt…

another communication issue as sound went off, pictures went off and finished half way through.

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.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
