On 693 radio on Wednesday night most of the talk was of Melbourne moving to Queensland.

This was because we had; No members

No Money

No training facilities at the moment

Will this happen?

What happened to the Roo’s

Thoughts???????

well seeing that all the presidents today agreed on having an 18 team competition i see this as unlikely

Don't kid yourself that this can't happen. It can and will unless we get our act together very quickly.

Melbourne is the capital of Victoria. Victoria is where Footy was invented. The Melbourne Football Club is the oldest registered Football Club in the world. There will ALWAYS be a Melbourne Football Club.

Saying that, I don't for one minute think that the Melbourne Football Club is not in fear of merging with another club!

- Melbourne Kangaroos???????

- Melbourne Hawks???????

- Melbourne Tigers????????

- Melbourne Bombers??????

- Melbourne Saints???????

- Melbourne Cats????????

- Melbourne Blues????????

- Melbourne Bulldogs???????

- Melbourne Mag - [censored]! I would rather the club fold than be his one!

Geez, I hope none of these ever happens.

Since they now want 18 teams, merging would reduce the number, so it is off the agenda. Also, as they want the team on the Gold Coast to be a real Gold Coast team, based there, that lets us out.

Its nothing more than someone making it up to create news at the moment. Having said that, there is no doubt that if the club continues to wallow down the bottom of the ladder and continues to have the most fickle and underwhelming supporter base in the league, then it is a distinct possibility down the track.

And yes, I am pointing the finger at some particular posters who refuse to renew memberships because of their own self pity.

while we still have a way to go to get our club in the shape we want, we are still a long way off from being forced into relocation...

this is 693 we are talking about... was it crackers or christo that said it??

Won't happen. Although, with this current AFL administration, anything is possible.

dont think its that they want 18 teams. they just want to get teams into sydney and gold coast so they have more exposure. Re-location definiely still possible for someone seeing as they want it done in a hurry....
