You know what, i'm actually retracting my statement. I have been to 12 out of 18 games this year, including one interstate, i think i was being too hard on myself (or maybe i've blocked most of the matches out from memory!). I still think i would care more about changing commitments this week if we were doing well but i've gone to basically every single game i could this year. I have been though bad times at Melbourne, and always stuck by them, maybe you do think i'm lumped in with the others but i think i've given the MFC amazing support under the circumstances.

So am i, and i think most people here are too. (Though i think that's been established in this thread already)

Nice work mate. Agree with you. You are Melbourne. 12 games is very good.

Well I'll cheer for you tomorrow night - I better hear you vs. the pies though. Haha.

 

I've been a member since 2000, I don't go to a lot of games though. Unfortunately I'm always took hungover for a Saturday game. Sundays I like to lay on the couch. I have been to at least half a dozen this year, and watched us loose all of them bar Collingwood.

It is hard to go and watch such a soft, up-and-down team play. I can't remember the last time I watched them lead after the first quarter, and go on with it. If we win, we always come from behind, and it's usually the result of an 8-10 goal quarter, why we can't do that all the time? Very frustrating sometimes and maybe why I found myself missing the last couple.

I am going Sat'd night...would love to watch a win.

i agree with you!

last week, clearly we went into the last quarter saying 'all we have to do is win this quarter' and we won it by 10 points

why don't we just say that before every quarter?

simple!

 
We need people to come to our matches. Even if it's just our home matches.

I guess being an interstate member gets me off the hook for some of the stuff being thrown around in here......

I would love to fly down more more often, I hate not being able to be there and do get jealous of those who can go week in week out.

But a combination of ongoing bad health, which subsequently means no money, makes that a little difficult, if not impossible.

I have been a (interstate) member (along with my dad) for about 20 years now. Since I was in primary school.

And I adore going to the games when the boys do actually come to town :D !!!

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
