CASEY: Rd 03 vs North Melbourne
Foot. Great Game. What's his first name? He kicked 3 tonight in the smashing of NM by over 100 points!!!!!!!!! Why is he not on the MFC website under TEAMS?

MFC Fixture Update
Dear Demonlanders, I wanted a 2021Melbourne fixture that was quick and easy to read. I needed to know at a glance when and where we are playing this year. I couldn't find a "global" one that was easy to glean MFC info, so I've made my own and I update it as info comes to hand from the AFL and MFC. The latest round details were released today and I've added these to my fixture. I'm finding it really helpful so I thought I'd share it. I hope you do too. If so, I'll keep posting it when new rounds are released p.s. Casey are smashing the Roos tonight - could be a 100 point thrashing...GO DEES! 2021 Fixture.csv

POSTGAME: Rd 06 vs Richmond
Saw this epic Demon victory from the 2nd level of the Olympic Stand. Three favourite moments: Spargo's tackle in the 1st quarter Kossie's shirtfront after kicking a set shot in the last quartet Singing with the full voiced Demon faithful "J-O-N-E-S-Y J-O-N-E-S-Y" just before he was interviewed on the ground after the game. Will always remember Jonesy's 300th

Training Ground?
Thank-you Young William. I was unaware that the initial push for an MFC home at Jolimont (Yarra Park) in 2018 coincided with the Victorian State Election and subsequent political shenanigans. How unfortunate. The next Victorian State Election is set in stone for Saturday 26 November 2022. Much has surely changed politically since then, especially since 2020 and CoVid. That gives 19 months before the next Victorian State Election. A large window for advocates of an MFC home at Jolimont (Yarra Park) to again push their case prior to another electoral "interference". In holding fast to what we want, (Melbourne Football Club Home @ Jolimont (Yarra Park)), we would do well to remember the words of William Edward Hickson:"...If at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again".

Training Ground?
Thank-you Chookrat. I'm glad we agree that Jolimont remains as the best home for the MFC. I am heartened you say that this proposal has not been ruled out. The link to the relevant article regarding the proposal for an MFC Jolimont Home is again shared below. I hope with all my heart it succeeds! https://turfmate.com.au/melbourne-football-club-pitches-plan-for-new-headquarters/

Training Ground?
That's a conspiracy theory at best. But my question remains: where is the proof that Jolimont has been ruled out as a home for the MFC?
-
Training Ground?
Thanks IHW. Is this the article from the Age to which you refer? Its from 2018: https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/concept-to-build-new-melbourne-headquarters-in-early-stages-20180620-p4zmnj.html Still no confirmation that Jolimont has been ruled out as a home for the MFC. I still think Jolimont is by far the best option.

Fritsch Out for 2 Weeks with Fractured Hand
Fritch must be spewing! He has really stepped up, found some great form and started kicking straight. May also would be feeling the same. I hope the team lifts for both these guys and really takes it out on the Hawks on Sunday.

Training Ground?
Can you confirm Jolimont has been ruled out? If not, surely this is the best place for an MFC home.

Training Ground?
A walk across the park to celebrate at Jolimont after a win at the MCG would be awesome! Anyone know how the negotiations for the below are going? https://turfmate.com.au/melbourne-football-club-pitches-plan-for-new-headquarters/

The Choco Appreciation Thread
Totally agree with you. I just listened to the end of that interview too. Mark Williams has earned and deserves respect.

The Choco Appreciation Thread
I was at that game. Port coached by Mark Williams won their first flag and in doing so famously stopped Brisbane from winning 4 premierships in a row. Goody's also scaled that mountain, twice in '97 & '98 when he played with Adelaide. Williams & Goody: success breeds success - good things ahead for the Dees me thinks...
