Have you raised concerns with the club re our social media Andy? 

I assume you would have some contacts there that would pass on supporter feedback.

I have in the past. I have offered my advice/services. Never been taken up on it. Still more than happy to assist in any way I can. The club always comes first.

    Our club mentioned that we could follow the game via there site. Cannot find anything there.

    Open the gates next time for the few who are interested! 

    As I understand it that was a decision of ICON, not the clubs. Doubtless wanting to save on staff and cleanup etc.

    Just got to wrangle that AFL media accreditation Andy.

    If everyone here is screaming out for better comms from our media dept (we know it gets read) how is it still such a low priority for the club?

    Arguably the best player in the league is rolling through this game after some challenges, it’s of huge interest.

    I’ve seen Andy say he’ll do it for free probably half a dozen times in 2024

    Melbourne FC have a very special ability  to ‘Melbourne’’ everything

    Giving the "keys" to an official website/twitter feed is a hard ask these days. That said no reason that independent social media "gurus" can't be given access and post on their own outlets.

    Does that mean Jefferson and Tholstrup are out of the main game?

    I'm getting the odd update;

    Tmac, Verrell, Clarry, Woey, Fullerton Sestan, Hore, AMW, Tholstrup, Jefferson and KFW  playing

    Clarrie dominating

    AMW playing well

     

    Sorry, that's it.

    Depends what happens in the 2nd half of the Casey game. They might be pulled at some point to play in the latter part of tonights game.

    Last night both teams put on players from the extended bench for the last quarter and a bit.

    I wonder if AMW could get a chance against the Swans with Kozzie out.

    Even though they are a bit different, it could depend on whether McAdam is fit.

    Completely understand that but Andy is very, very cautious of the club and what is discussed here. At this point I don’t consider him far removed from being an actual staff member

    Thanks. I like watching new players, to see what they are like.

    The club do like some young guys to have the experience of a match day. Wouldn’t surprise me if Kolt/Jeffo get pulled at 3QT and then warm up and do the ‘match day experience’ with the main team tonight but don’t actually play

    Be grand if Andy debuts sooner rather than later consistency is the key.

    Just to be clear. I have never asked for that nor do I necessarily want that. I have a full time job. That being said I have alot of ideas and advice that I would happily give. I would love to have the access that the club has to their own talent. I'm not saying I could do a better job but I have a lot of ideas about what the club could do better with their own resources. When I say I would do things for free it is more to just emphasize my love for the club and wanting them to be the best in all aspects. I already support them financially in the form of many premium memberships as well as the 2 player sponsorships not to mention merchandise etc. I'm also happy to give my time and knowledge to help improve certain aspects that I believe the club is lacking in.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
