Ump's looked at the half time stat's and thought "we have gone too far" let's get them back into the game.

Just watching the match now on Fox. What's with the very loud music after every goal. Absolutely deafening.

I had red hair as well and boy did I cop it at school. After a few altercations I concentrated on athletics and become a very good runner which helped to avoid further flack. The other bad side of red hair is that over the past two years I have had 7 procedures for melanoma's. The joys of the Aussie sun.

Selective hearing but I had probably turned off by then. Media bias for larger clubs verses Top Of Table match. A Melbourne blowout so not appealing to the masses. Happy to stay under the radar until when it really counts. Have to wait till we play down the highway in two weeks as clearly the best match that week. If true to form they (media) will make the narrative about Sydney V Bulldogs.

I was going to post the same. Turned it off half way. According to them there was only one game. Jeeeelong V Tigggers.

Looking at the crowd so many would have not been alive when they were good. Family/peer pressure to follow them. (vomit vomit)

Where are their 30k members????? Another AFL beatup.

Having just got out of hospital this week, so unable to go, I watched the game on TV. The commentators in the main were pretty good (no BT or Brayshaw) BUT if I had to hear from "Gill the Dill's brother" one more time about Dogga moving back to W.A. I was ready to throw something at the TV. Only to be replicated on SEN today by DerrrWayne. Give me strength. Oh and to just prove he knows footy he stated from the top of his show that there are 9 teams capable of beating Melbourne in the grand final. The amount of calls and text's calling him out on that had him backtracking furiously. Was driving around with a smile listening to him being called out.

I also have the same as well as a Shane Woewodin from 2000.

I made a slight edit but considering the media comments during the week I feel that they massaged the figures. I just cannot stand the AFL as I believe they are one of the most corrupt organisations around and along with Ch #7 will wreck the game that we love. Strong comment but that's how I feel. I know close friends and family feel the same way. Not all are Melbourne supporters but their feelings are the same. I am a 64 year continuous member of the MFC and along being a MCC member love this club with all my being but am finding the way the AFL treat our club just so hard to cope with. With poor fixturing at the "G" against interstate teams at crazy times to the favouring of the larger clubs just for "bums on seats to ensure bonus's at year end" is just so frustrating. I support our club with two memberships but GOD it's getting harder by the year how we are treated. Sorry for the rant. Go DEE'S - always.

AFL announced North's attendance as 13,700+. Would lay money that they included 5,000 Medallion memberships when convenient wether anyone is there or not. Been doing it for years. Corrupt to the core they are.

Have to stay home as well Rob. Open wounds on face after removal of 6 melanoma's. Pain killers and vodka/red bull assisting a pleasant evening. My skiing finished around then (2000) as well.

Pity we have a censor as I really would like to say EXACTLY what I think of him but I always play by the rules.

Haha. Nearly fell out of my chair with your age but I totally misread your comment.

The best thing fitting into the 71-80 bracket is that I have seen and been to 7 premierships inc last year as the only "seen". I consider myself f-ing lucky compared to a lot of Dee"s supporters. Fit as I am (thanks to the good folk at the Alfred/Sandy) I hope to see quite a few more. Go Dee's.

Same for me. The one and only time I was in that stand was the Nicky Windmar game and as St Kilda left the ground you could not see the race they were walking to from "Filth" supporters spitting on them. VERY embarrassed to say one of them was a friend. I chose to lose contact with them after that.

For me many times and I am still scared. Being in the cheer squad then ensured we had targets on our backs.

Not withstanding having just got out of hospital and certainly unable to attend but using ticketek to get "prime" seats in nose bleed territory level four is just not on. I always seat level one, M46 or level two but absolutely refuse level four. With my health lately (not Covid related) just better I stay at home. Will try for the Sydney game.

What about the sale of our gambling venues (which they never had). I doubt they are better off financially than us.

The one that really gets me is GWS claiming 30K+ members. Looking at todays attendance I would be surprised if 4-5K were GWS supporters. AFL must count the "freebies" they have given out. With a club like Melbourne, starting this game back in 1858 and only having 60K+ just makes a mockery of membership numbers.

Second best PF or am I missing something.

Hah. Wet Toast's highlight of the evening. Booing Petracca's goal. Suffer nuff's nuff's.

I was going to suggest they drop/withdraw the whole team and replace them with their WAFL team but just checked and they were on the bottom of the WAFL ladder. The whole club is screwed. Going to be a long long long way back for them. Heads MUST roll over there.

Just had a look on Big Footy and Wet Toast supporters are concerned that the rest of the AFL look at their team as tanking. The thought had crossed my mind as some of their selections are surprising.

Or Midland.
