had a friend who worked there for years

they've done a pretty job of engaging the pacific islander base, as @No. 31 said

but for the most part they're completely anonymous in melbourne from an engagement and junior development perspective

rugby australia has a lot to answer for - how that sport has squandered its success in the 90s and 00s is extraordinary

    99.9% of Victorians wouldn't be able to name a single Rebels player, let alone be interested in attending games. 

    The way that team has been promoted is abysmal. Hopefully it frees up sponsorship dollars for the MFC.

    Yes, there was absolutely no promotion at all. Rugby Australia are to blame for all of this. 
    Letting it out on the eve of a Finals Campaign 

    Shameful, hope it goes to Court

    Watching the Rebs last ever H&A match in Fiji on Stan Sports. The Rebels giving it a good crack with the score 19-19 against Fijian Drua.

    Carn the Rebs!

    They needed someone like Cam Pedo to come in and shake things up. But thinking outside the dodecagon, any of their guys be any good a full forward?

    I used to know Wallaby players' names; now I don't even know or care when, where and on what channel games are on. Hurry up and merge League and Yawnion.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
