On a slightly related note, and because I didn’t want to start an entirely new topic - it’s time that we gave NB the flick. They’ve been great over a sustained period, but if you look at the range they have produced this year, it is boring, dull and unimaginative. The off-field range is literally just a navy canvas with patches stuck on it and a red zipper where appropriate. If that’s where we are at with merch, then we really don’t understand branding. 
 

while I’m on it…we have stuck the MFC monogram on the jumper. There was a thought when the logo was redesigned tht the MFC monogram would be what the Yankees NY in respect of city wide identity. It may have been a pipe dream, but sticking it on the the jumper demonstrates we haven’t given up on the idea. However, take a look at the merchandise on the Demon shop. Barely another item using the solo monogram. Not a single baseball hat that is just a monogram. It shows we really don’t get it at all. The idea and thought is there, the execution is appalling

Of course she's good 'picket'...

You don't have her level of sustained success if you're not.

Ahm Gary Glitter??

I said sustained success 'picket'...Glitter has had nowhere near the career.

She's been topping the charts for over 15 years now.

Personally I don't like stadium shows at all...much prefer more intimate venues with musicians really playing, taking chances and not just regurgitating the record.

She''s not my cup of tea is Taylor but the girl has got a load of talent.

This is how it looks today…

The large brown area is where the stage will be.

The MFC admin staff have to relocate and work from home and/or Casey and/or AAMI for 10 days. No functions will be held during this time. If a room that has windows which overlook the ground does have to be used during the lead-up to the concerts, the windows will be ‘blacked out.’ There are huge black curtains already erected between the concourse and the ground level seating. All this because Mz Swift demands total secrecy. She doesn’t want the details of her spectacle to be known before the event.

As for the Demon Shop, I was there today and asked about them shutting, and it seems one reason is because it’s not worth opening when there’ll be so few people wandering in and out of the ‘G. (Many people who visit the ‘G incorporate a visit to the Demon Shop.) I don’t know why they’re shutting for such a long time though.

That's where they've taken the drop-in wicket out. The main stage is at the city end.

Thanks Ben

Out off curiosity why are there no seats available on the mid level of the Northern Stand. Seems a massive area if that's the lighting and sound control area.

What time frame are there no functions?  The Coterie Season Launch is advertised as being in the MCC Dining Room on 22 February.

Whoever runs and whoever located the Demon Shop where it is  have no idea of business principles. 

they should have negotiated and got a demountable ( one exists near Gate 3)  Surely they could have one located near the MCC members. 

Just  seems as though they are taking a holiday as it is too long a break. 

Will they open up for replacement time like  a Sale afternoon to get more merch sold? 

Also why didn’t they let fans know about it weeks ago so they could cash in before the shut  down?  Too much effort ? 

Can’t believe MFC have to move from their office spaces. That’s ridiculous.

What about $$$ compensation from the MCC also to Admin and Demon Shop? 

Rant over but Pi.. off back to USA Tay Tay.

Exasperated by the Mess there concerts have caused the Club .

Must be some compensation for such a raft of inconvenience at this stage of season.

Demon shop is moving everything to Casey so maybe they are planning a "pop up" for the 18th. I would ring the shop and confirm.

Actually when posting previously I eodeted if that may be possible as Casey is used most frequently, big day on 18th it is a good move under the circumstances.

well done DSHop.

It looks to me that every bay has seating available in the Northern stand (apart from those behind the stage). It's comparatively emptier on the map compared to the Southern stand due to most of the Northern stand only having three levels for seating (apart from P42-45 in the MCC Members), compared to the Southern stand's four.

I know the admin have been told to move out by her security team to. Doubt they'd give 2 hoots. 

Do they know that we are a business trying to run things and make money? 

Imagine if a singer who was performing came to travis's team and said get out I'm playing.

Just another yank scrubber who likes taking her clothes off in front of millions to hide the fact she is no good and milking aussies for heaps of dollars

a teenager rang up the radio. said she got tickets at $1200. She's got tickets for all 3 concerts. Her family of 5 are all going to first one.  and ... she's been to 4 previous swift concerts (presumably overseas).

now 7 tickets at $1200 is a heck of a lot of spondulaks. even 1 ticket at $1200 is big time, and considering most attendees are young teens the bank of the parent must be working overtime

in times of inflation and thrift it all seems way over the top

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
