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.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
