What if this is all a ploy to outrage supporters into buying membership for the club before he turns around and signs with the Dees after trade week?? ;)

Either way - if we had more members we would have more clout - I say sign up everyone you know who goes for the Dees!

Hopefully we'll pickup a quality forward this year instead.

    I know a lot of dee's supporters but most only have a passing interest in AFL, it seems that we have people who grow up as melbourne supporters but never get into following the club with any real love or passion.

    thats because we've done nothing over the past 10 years to stir that passion...

    I know three people and my mates know others who just want to be inspired by something - a genuine superstar or a new an exciting coach - they said they'd sign up if Sheedy was our coach - its very fickle - and probably pretty weak, but after so much heart break people move away just to give themselves a break.

    Im signing up tomorrow - I reckon Bailey is gonna blow them away.

    I've been a member for the past 7 years. I'll be signed up as soon as the club sends out the papers.

    Which is exactly why we were chasing Judd. We need something to excite those fickle bastards who won't buy a membership until we win a flag or produce a star.

    What they don't understand, is that success and player development cost money, lots and lots of money, and when they don't buy a membership, they are robbing us of the opportunity to be better. It's a vicious cycle.

    I've long maintained that one of our biggest weaknesses is our supporter base. Too few who care, too many who won't contribute.

    Exactly right Jaded, the pies kids are better because they have 2 coaches that work with them all week and only them.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
