I'm a member of the MCC and just received an email inviting me to respond to a survey about the MCC and the use of the MCG. I have used it to request that the gameday experience be improved by getting rid of the music. If you agree with that and are also invited to respond to the survey, please ensure you make the same comment.

I have also asked that those teams who use the MCG as their home ground not be required to have a home game at Marvel. I know that's not likely to change and is a decision of the AFL, not the MCC. But it's still worth saying.

 

I will also tell them to bring back the Spinach and Ricotta roll.

Gee whiz you'd be fun to have at a party....

 

I filled out the survey. Here’s what I asked for:

Whatever happened to the lovely young man in his Dinner jacket who used to play the Bugle at Melbourne home games? Bring him back.

We need more mature Gruyere on the menu in the Dining Room. No local substitutes either. I like my cheese like I like my bank accounts - Swiss. And…

It’s not enough to require members to wear a collared shirt. Security must be checking that the shirt is either Ralph Lauren, Trenery or Rodd and Gunn. Country Road is permitted for summer sports only. As per the current rules an R.M. Williams shirt will be allowed if the member is a Geelong Grammar alumni.

Absolutely no short sleeve shirts. This is a members club, not an Italian deli.

Warm Regards.

THBT, Esq.

When you can't hear the person next to you talk, the music is too loud.

Well said. I doslike the music but considered if others like it. Tge only ones who appear to get involved are a sprinking of kids who have some pre prepared dance moves hoping to get on the big screen.

I agree with LDC we are there for a football game not a heavy metal concert.


Please improve the quality of the MCC Shiraz

Jokes aside, a very average drop.

No-one ever invites me to parties.

Don't know why.

I am like you LDC, very happy that no one who likes that music leaves me off the list. I would happily support you but sadly I am not a MCC member. I do however complain about it on every footy survey. Result zero. I think there is more chance the Dees will win the next four games than the music being removed.

Can you also ask them to put the cup holders back in the redlegs/trident area. Sadly missed

Clubs a joke, coach is a joke…

Are you a member? They send members surveys twice a year at least.

Gameday experience, music etc and Melbourne playing home games at Marvel has nothing to do with the MCC but thanks for filling in the survey.

Agreed. You don’t go to a concert and expect to see/hear snippets of a footy match.

The Irish music at the Jim Stynes game was incredible everytime we kicked a goal

Don’t mean go all Karen on your arze, Wrecker, but that wasn’t Irish music. It’s a hymn called “Lord of the Dance” and it was written by an English songwriter and based on a traditional English carol. And I know this because Sr Margaret Mary used to make us sing it every single day at St Aloysius college much to my parents’ chagrin. 😝

Yes I get the surveys. Not very hard hitting.

I have a couple of member friends who never get them 74. Inspire of contact to ask why they are not on the list. I often wonder if the results see the light of day to those running the club.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
