Firstly, we will win today and over 40,000 will attend, but that is up to all supporters getting to the game, don't wait for the replay get to the MCG you won't be disappointed. The winning part I have confidence in our players that we can beat the dogs.

Secondly, We have secured a top line CEO that has the contacts to increase our sponsership and improve the clubs adminstration. This was an amazing get by our Board.

Thirdly, Chris Connelly amazing we can get this past player back to the club he was a good coach a fremantle and we have him as our Football Manager, already he has addressed our training base problem, another great win for the club.

Next, today look over to the new home of the MFC, it is being built, every week we go to the MCG take a look and get excited about our new home.

There is more our debt has been dramatically reduced, once the balance of 2.7mil can be wiped out we can start making some big profit numbers.

Ex players are starting to show more interest in the club, the club is really starting to unite, still a bit away but it is happening.

The only negative is the supporters, the club can't make supporters attend games and buy memberships that is upto us. We can make this club a great club again by getting to games even if we are losing. The club is putting things in place on their side to rectify some long stanging problems it is time for us the supporters to stand up and be counted.

    I`ll be there regardless of the weather! No excuses for any real supporters today unless you are getting married or going to a funeral. It`s been a bloodbath in the media this week and the players know it. It`s all very good for us supporters to say we want to see some heart on the field and rightly so , but our supporters have been heartless far longer than the players who displayed that insipid trash last week. Get out there and show some spine people. Our club`s future relies as much on us supporters as our players on field actions. Respect!

    That is a very good post dr.

    I've been waiting for Gardner to show some leadership over the last few days. Sure, he went on Footy Classified a couple of weeks back and his style is relaxed, but there's not enough passion emanating from him, imo. We're presently being hit from pillar to post, yet I've heard nothing from the club this week. I want someone at our club to tell the media to go and get stuffed. Not in so many words, as of course that would be counter productive, but you get my drift. Most of the speculation is media driven as stations like SEN have to have footy as it's spotlight 24 seven. It's our turn to be in the gun. I'm not saying that we don't have some serious concerns, but they are being addressed in the main, and won't be fixed overnight. Patrick Smith stated that Demetriou is concerned by 1 or 2 Melbourne based clubs, but no doubt he was responding to the question "Andrew, are you happy with all the Melbourne based clubs?" "Well, we are concerned by one or two, Patrick". Gee there's suddenly a newsworthy story !

    In reality we really have lacked someone at the MFC getting on the front foot and passionately defending this club and where we're heading. The silence has been deafening.

    And we've also missed articulate posters like Fan providing their keen insight during a time when derision is coming from within our own supporter base. The club needs switched on supporters on internet forums providing a semblance of sanity. Your voice reaches further than you think.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
