I would go every week win or lose!! Even if it hurts.

And the fact i cant go makes me want 2 go ever week more and more

People say the can accept losing i cant hurts more and more each week and i believe we can fix what happened this week and all takes is danners to pick up the lazy players and slap them in the face and then do 1 to himself!!

The game was that bad that I had to leave at half time!

I felt really sad about it cause its the first time I had ever done that. :unsure:

You could have missed the greatest goal/mark etc ever to be taken in the red and blue.

It's always worth sticking around IMO, even if it's just to watch closely a player you rate highly/don't rate at all and see how he goes.

wow, the fickle supporter tag does permeate into these boards, i didn't think anyone here wasn't passionate enough to attend for the sake of supporting the boys, even if it hurts to watch

ill support them when they come to play, but they showed no respect to us, the club or themselves, so on that basis i had no qualms on walking. 9/10 ill sit through a shlacking, but i can't tolerate it when i feel i care more than they do.

friday didn't hurt for me like other games have, it infuriated me and saw me come close to bursting an artery.

i meant people saying they won't bother next week, weeks to come etc. it is times like this that our most passionate supporters stay tough, because if we don't the average dees 'snow bunny' has no chance, and our standing in the media and the football world will deteriorate even further.

i personally don't leave early, but can udnerstand why people do, and it's fair enough if you feel let down by what the players provide for you, but if you don't go every week through whatever, you miss wins like the crows game, or the tigers, blues in 97

Well I had a prior commitment so I didnt get to the game until half time and I met a lot of Melbourne supporters on my way to the ground. I do not applaude you leaving at half time, we have been losing by worse margins than Friday night at half time and I have stuck around to watch that train wreck I do not understand the point of leaving nor do I condone it

I have supported this club for too long not to expect performances like what was dished up on friday evening...

There was a sense all week that Richmond was a chance but looked at match ups and thought we looked pretty good...

However, you cannot beat spirit and passion - something which our players played without!!

there was no pride in their performance whatsoever...

The second quarter was possibly the worst quarter of football that a demon team has played in a long long time!! no manning up, kicking over players heads, no hard running, no clearances, lack of hard ball gets...

where has the team of 2004, 2005, 2006 gone???

i stayed for the entire game and supported, some with sarcasm and some with passion - such as matthew bate's continuing good form!!

seriously though, as soon as we stop accepting mediocrity and tripe that was dished up on friday evening and demanding performances week in week out such as those against adelaide and the filth, then we will be a better club!!

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
