Easily the worst thing about sitting in the MCC is the lack of feel for the modern game by so many. "Just kick it" is a regular refrain, as is "terrible kick, number ten". "His name is Turner, you nuffy" is my response.

How to tell someone you're not a member of the MCC without actually saying that you're not a member of the MCC.

Am I right?

    "Just kick the bloody thing"

    Player gets a hurried kick and turns it over

    "To a Melbourne player!"

    "Pick it up, come on! Argh why didn't you pick it up?"

    "Don't kick sideways, the goals are that way"

    They must have been going off against freo.

    I usually sit near the Criclet Victoria box. I heard some nuffy using the first refrain last week.

    Haha, I've been a full member since I was 16. So no, incorrect.

    There is a family that have sat there in the front row for years, and they never say anything stupid. They were there with us when we were pathetic between 2007-2013, and were there every week like us.

    So as I prefaced this original little rant, @La Dee-vina Comedia , most MCC supporters are nuffies. Not all.

    How bad are the queues? This is my first game of the season. I was planning on arriving around 615 PM

    depends how much heat you are packing

    Handguns fine but semiautomatics you need to queue on the far left side

    Could you be any more sensitive about a post?

    It is quite remarkable that the Tigers have beaten 2 decent/good teams they are missing 7 best 22 players

    Their team is filled with 3-4 solid senior players then NQRs and kids

    On paper we should win by 60pts plus but who the hell knows?!

    That's definitely not me. I'm the guy critiquing the umpires

    I just hope the players know you have your lucky socks and play for them

    I told Goody the lucky socks story and he laughed and said, “Tell Maysie about that!” I didn’t speak to Maysie but I’m guessing he also has lucky socks (?) If so, he’d better have them on tonight. The Ghosty and Maysie lucky socks one-two punch will get us over the line. 🧦 🧦 👊🏼

    We recently had a much-loved cheer squad member pass away. As a homage, someone will do what he did every match. He’d yell out to the umpire, “He’s been doing it all night!” but always in the first few minutes of the match. Never not funny

    I heard this a couple of years back in the top deck at Marvel, and have even rolled it out myself as well. Agree it never gets old

    He other one I heard and liked was in a day game when a bloke yelled out “turn the lights on, I want to see more of this” (wasn’t this year!!)

    Very Suprised that Goodwin has bought Fritsch back into the side after only 1 week.

    Hope it works,

    win tonight and there is a pulse left in the Season

    Of course

    But we can’t afford to look ahead, apart from the next game

     

    On my way in now. I'm expecting a win but who knows.

    Hopefully we see the exciting footy we saw last week.

    If kozzie can reproduce that form & petty can snag a few we'll be on our way.

    Cn wait to see mcvee back

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
