I was sitting in the olympic stand and did anyone happen to notice that the players run flat-chat to the interchange, it's the hardest they run at anything, it's as if they can't wait to get off!!!!

Would anyone agree with that?

Yes.

Fwiw, I think it was 60:40 Roos/MFC supporters. Talk of 75% Roos supporters is - IMHO - ridiculous.

    I was there in MCC members on my own until the end... 3rd game this season

    I don't know if i'm a glutton for punishment or what, but i love to be there for every minute of it and digest as much footy as I possibly can.

    It hurts yeah, but i can see where the guys are trying to do something they're still unfamiliar with, and knowing all teams go through this at some stage i just sit by and bide my time.

    I'm sick of idiot 'supporters' though that go and constantly moan throughout the game. I'm probably happier when the crowd is small like that so i don't have to listen to it.

    Our time will come and the grand old flag will fly proudly again.

    I applaud you all for going, but these threads make me furious, um, even more so. Blaming fans for the state of the club is not only counter productive but patently absurd. I know most of you haven't done this but it was clearly the doctors intention starting the thread.

    I can't get to every game and I'm sure many others with a life are in the same boat. Friday night and Saturday day games are impossible because of work and the odd Sunday away game I take the opportunity to get up the country and visit my parents and my brothers and their families. It's a heinous sin putting my carrer and family ahead of the footy club I know. I give this club plenty of dosh every year, I spend more on friggin raffle tickets than my membership, but if thats not good enough drdrake and astrodee maybe I should take my money and go, is that what you want?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
