  1. Hating the height of the TV camera's. Too low to the ground. Should be much higher for a better view. THIS MUST BE THE LAST GAME AT THIS VENUE. Even more cheering for a Freo goal that a D's goal. Grrrr
  2. Hard shots for goal - easy. Set shots - hard.
  3. I got in after watching the Dali Lama drive past. Busy night in old Melbourne town.
  4. WTF. Before he leaves we need a better deal on OUR HOME GROUND. The rest are tennants for god's sake.
  5. She leaves all the other special comment"nuff nuff's" for dead. She is so insightful and to the point on all teams just not the pro cats and hawk comments that some have.
  6. AFL is a professional sport. Hundred's of million's are generated each year. The AFL has opened up gambling to where some feel the AFL maybe compromised down the track (India/Cricket) and yet they leave the most important part of the game in the hands of amateurs. THE UMPIRES. By making them professional do you really think things will change. The weekly tinkering of interpretations are mind-boggling. Quickly losing interest in this game as it is at the moment.
  7. Just met neighbours going thru a fence issue and in general conversation we realized we follow Melbourne. They are not members but will join next year if we have a good year. Good result on the fence ensued. Then went to the Alfred for eye checkup (make sure I see free kicks on the other side of the ground) and the lady looking after me also followed Melbourne (I talk a lot) and she said her whole family of eight members follow Melbourne but not one is a member. Do well this year and we should re-connect with many supporters who with a push will join. All up to the boys on the ground and the FD moving forward. A sleeping giant may just awake.
  8. One per winning goal. Brilliant.
  9. Great spot in my mind. Train from Toorak to Richmond, walk to the ground and get our seats in the members then a quick walk up for a meal and drinks at the new facility (as long as they keep the prices cheaper than inside the ground) then back for the game. Got it planned already.
  10. And the government HAS to include Spring Street as well as Federal. The Federals have pumped millions into Geelong, Essendon, North and of course the filth.
  11. Just watched the second quarter and with 4:50 min to go, Richmond's Miles, being tackled around the chest, lifted his left arm to push the tackler's arm up towards his neck and was paid a free kick. Umpire 8-10 mtrs away with a perfect view. I thought the umpire dept was outlawing the "Selwood" free. The dribble from 7's commentary team was the worst I have ever heard. I actually screamed at the TV with Ling's comments. ABSOLUTE idiot. He makes BT sound good.
  12. I agree. I'm told he is from Adelaide so why not debut against Port over there and give his family and friends an armchair ride watching him.
  13. Sorry. It was Oscar McDonald. Impressive running.
  14. By the end it was freezing but glad of the hot coffee. Really impressed with Oscar who really has some speed. The guys really looked like they were having fun out there.
  15. Let's blame Neeld as we will always be grateful to Todd for a moment of passion and gave us JACK.
  16. The whole Northern stand and behind the Punt Road end goals.
  17. And Bill Guest currently has a say to the AFL on "fixturing"? He does not speak or give agreements on behalf of the Melbourne Football Club. Christ he gave all the staff working for Guest's furniture MFC memberships to vote his way on the merger. Will never forget that.
  18. No Geelong as they are the second oldest team? The one thing that other teams CANNOT come to grips with is that the MCG is Melbourne's home ground and the rest of them are ONLY tennants. And yes the Melbourne Football Club is a club under the MCC umbrella. Long may that continue.
  19. Good idea. Lot's of toothless "mothers" at the filth.
  20. Just saw AFL360 and they were on about the free kicks to West Coast at home. Currently 96 to 39 and umpires have intimated to Chris Scott that they are influenced by the crowd so the free must be there. Alan Richardson was also complaining about the frees there but not paid to opposing clubs. Robinson said that Fox will chase the AFL up. Haha Dead end there I feel.
  21. It's easier for the AFL to pander to the larger clubs with the "fixture" and keep the others on the drip. Times are a'changing. Keep playing the way we are and maintain being the 4th best in attendance and things HAVE to change. Excluding the NT attendances.
  22. Didn't know where to post this but listening to SEN yesterday, David King was talking of the top three teams (West Coast, Richmond AND NORTH). Sorry D.H. but last time I looked at the ladder WE were 3rd and North were 6th. Let your bias go David and talk facts. Always respected his comments but this was stupid. Oh and now we have lost Lever we will go into free fall. And they actually get paid for this sh_t.
  23. Wrong topic. Have put into media not giving us credit.
  24. Yeah well next year's wish list ad better have the following. 1. No game at Geelong.. 2. No game against West Coast in Perth. 3. Home games against larger supported Melbourne clubs at the "G" as well as the above. Last years performance and this year's demand it.
