    Is it in the MCC museum or the Australian Sport Museum. The link suggested MCC, but the title of this thread suggests otherwise. They are two different museums at the G. 

    The original post was a tweet from the MCC and the tweet said Australian Sports Museum. The tweet has now been deleted and was not replaced. I have now put the Dees tweet about it from today in the original post.

    AUSTRALIAN SPORTS MUSEUM AND THE MCC MUSEUM

    The MCC Museum forms an integral part of the Australian Sports Museum experience on non-MCG event days, where ticket purchasers will be able to access the MCC Museum from within the Australian Sports Museum.

    Follow the signage when browsing the Cricket Gallery inside the Australian Sports Museum to discover the MCC Museum.

    I am going to assume it's the MCC one down near the Bullring

    Great to see the Stynes family donating his Brownlow to the museum. However even more surprising was Trac donating his Norm Smith medal so soon after winning it! Said that it means more to him having the fans come and see it. What a guy!

    I also note he didn’t hand over his premiership medallion - shows which of the two medals is most important to him.

    Please don't donate your empty booze bottles picket - you'd fill the place up.

    I was fortunate enough years ago to work on an MFC project cataloguing a lot of their vast trove of memorabilia. This was while it was in temporary storage of the sports museum in the depths of the MCG. Many athletes put on loan or bequeath their medals, uniforms or other gear for safe keeping. Pluggers Locket's Brownlow and Coleman medals were in storage , Betty Cuthbert's track suit and even a funny old bike that was ridden to glory for an olympic gold medal reside down there. Many of the old cricket bats are kept in the MCC museum on loan. The owners say they are properly stored and are kept in a safe secure environment.

    There is o much in storage that isn't on display.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
