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

    I know context is everything, but I actually felt a bit uncomfortable reading this. I'm curious...did it also affect others in that way?

    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?!

    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

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
