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.

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.

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

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.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
