Who exactly?

You're calling me clueless?

Grow up

You obviously dont understand the history.

Go inform yourself.  Yes clueless

He helped win us a flag and lost his front teeth for us.

Nice young fella.  Why would you boo him?

Hope he play terribly though

 

I think I’m over booing. Even for umpires. I never feel good after it.

Same as like during the last quarter against Port when I threw my phone at the couch and it bounced and crashed into my favourite coffee mug and broke it and my chihuahua looked at me fearful and wide-eyed never having seen such a thing.

Time to rein in the crazy.

What history? I've been to almost all Melbourne games over the last 30 years. Stop attacking one of your own.

You have a different view to me which is fair enough. That doesn't warrant attacking me - grow up.


If there's any booing I hope it's from Fremantle fans because Jacko is stinking it up.

Perhaps we get a sign saying "We Want Our Teeth Back"  😁

I'll save my voice for to support the lads in the red and blue.

I don't boo players, only umpires. But if I did boo I would boo but I won't be booing because I don't boo.

Sorry but I do boo players who commit low acts, especially behind the ball.

I think I will just shout DOG! Whenever Jackson gets near the ball.

You're either with us or against us, so "DOG" is completely appropriate in my view.

Yes of course.  He was one of us, chose to leave when we wanted him to stay (misled the MFC during the process) so he is now the ‘enemy’. Simple as that (Only for the first couple of games at best)

To give some perspective I also tend to boo umpires when they stuff things up, opposition players that purposely hurt one of our players, etc etc. It’s footy, it’s me.

To give further perspective, I wouldn’t boo Horne Francis (he didn’t stuff us around), nor would I boo say Hunt who went to WC, or Weidman who went to Essendon -(both the players and club were above board in discussions / outcomes).

Bit like religion really. I respect whatever you choose to believe or not believe in, just don’t try and convert me. Same for booing and not booing.

This has really sparked my interest.

What happened that Scully was to become the only player in the history of the AFL who was obligated to announce his intentions mid year to change clubs.

It's amazing that a 19 year old kid at the time (Scully) still triggers a lot of outdated individuals on here.

Kid accepts a huge salary upgrade so that he can set up his future financially.

Didn't know this was a sin..

He could not of possibly said no. Right place right time for him. 

No one on the planet was entitled to know his intentions mid year. Its the way the AFL works.

I'm a booing atheist.  I don't believe in it.

It's the way most workplaces work. Very few employees let their employer know they are looking elsewhere for a job.

If you dont know the circumstances and betrayal by that traitor then im not sure what team youve been following..

 

There's booing and there's booing.

Booing Wacko Jacko is fair game unless it spurs him on, but only for one game.

Booing Oskar Baker was embarrassing and pathetic.

I certainly won't be booing the Weed but am expecting the filth to boo Grundy on KB

Just voted and it confirmed what I knew: that the vast majority of us wont. Unlike other clubs                  ( particulaparticularly crows, power, eagles and lions), we are above such neanderthal tactics.

Disclaimer.  Umpires not included.

I won't boo but there is a place for booing in football. If Jackson commits a stupid act and knocks out one of our guys or partakes in some roughing up of Max he will be booed accordingly.

If he doesn't then there will be no booing.

I totally understand,   our dog came home in the morning for breakfast

 

I can't bring myself to Boo Dogga. I loathe the fact that he left us after 3 years of development and would only deal with a club who didn't have the best currency available in the state he wanted to return to. However the flag that he helped deliver and the feelings that that brought me outweighs the feelings that I have for him ditching us.

Had we not won the flag and he left it would be Boo city.

I loved having Dogga at the MFC. He reminds me of my puppy. Slightly crazy and unco at times, but happy to be alive and in the moment.

I hope he plays well, but we win. 

Then I can focus any negative energy on Cripps, the Daicos media storm, and the entire city of Geelong.

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
