16000 supporters at the mcg.

what a disgrace.

having a big crowd makes such a big difference. not only does it have a significant effect on umpiring decisions, but if a player hears the roar of a massive crowd, it definitely lifts his performance and adrenalin levels.

i love the demons, but sometimes i with i supported a club like adelaide which has atleast 40,000 people turn up and scream for their team every week.

it really does make a difference.

obviosuly we can't just pull 40000 members out of nowhere, however i know that there are more than 16000 melbourne fans who could have made it to the mcg on a sunday arvo for 4 hours on a nice sunny day. shame on those who could have been there and weren't, because your presence could have meant the demons winning.

    I will no doubt get shot down but yesterday was amazing...

    You would have thought there was double that with the noise generated during the game, the standing ovation and cheering on at half time, three quarter time and even after the game...

    there was as much passion in the stands yesterday as there has been all year - whether it was the desperation of needing a win, the determination and effort of all the players or both, it was a day that made me remember why I support the Melbourne Football Club...

    we are not far off getting a win - this was evident from sunday!!!

    i'd have to agree. the supporters really got behind the boys, and i don't think we've ever cheered them off louder after a loss. everyone in the crowd knew that they had a red hot crack, just a shame they didn't have more voices to show their appreciation. we should have a 'bring two mates to the footy day'. we should all make sure we wear dees stuff around town. sick of seeing all these pies scarfs all around town. it's half the reason they all go, because they feel like everyone else will go

    interesting on the pies scarfs. what ive noticed is that the only stickers i ever see on cars are melbourne. if you were new to the city you would think everyone barracked for us...

    yeah that's so true ey! i've always said that but people just reckon it's cos i'm biassed. every tuesday should be wear your scarf to work day

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
