Seen quite a few comments online from various clubs, all seem to be complaining about rising costs with little return. Wonder what the solution is as we're stuck in a cost of living crisis.

2024 AFL Grand Final
Thanks for this. I'm interested in attending my first AFL grand final, but 4am is a bit of a daunting! I do love me some Level 3 FGS seats though. I know both teams are technically "interstate" but have their origins here and do recall the MCC having decent number of Lions and Swans fans when we've played them recently.

Welcome to Demonland: Tom Campbell
Look I agreed with you that Boyd has the advantage due to his age. I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on the fella - obviously some posters rate him highly on here, others a little less so - just stating TC has been in the AFL system etc If we went down the Boyd route, there's still a chance that in 2 years time he hasn't played a game at AFL level and by then he would be 28 years old. We'll know a lot more about Verrall in the next 12-18 months. Also think its important to note that Max signed a 3 year deal and as that progresses we'll look a better destination for some Rucks (that are a better age fit etc) who are already on AFL lists.

I don't see the issue with a stop-gap option like this, would know he's an in case of emergency break glass type acquisition. Free addition, low salary. Don't think it would necessary hinder Verrall's growth, would help share the load. Would other clubs be into Boyd?- 2024 AFL Grand Final
Thank you! I live in Richmond so might duck in early for a seat and then go home and snooze, doesn’t help I’ve got a bucks party the day before tho aha- 2024 AFL Grand Final
It's my first year as a MCC Full member, was not a part of the GF ballot. Any idea what time someone would need to rock up to get a seat for a Sydney v Brisbane final?- Brisbane 2024 Round 1 Pick
So we're going for Geelong this weekend then?- Brayden Preuss - Delisted
It was pretty fun watching him try chase people though, small moments of joy- 2024 Phantom Drafts
AFL phantom draft has Langford #2, ESPN has him at #10. both lists are a fair bit different despite being released on the same day. No doubt we’ll grab a talented kid at #5 regardless who it is- Christian Petracca
Also probably wants to avoid drunk dees fans querying him/having a go at him- Trade Targets
But it would ruin the nickname you're trying to push onto Tholstrup though- Delistings 2024
Looked at an article from 25 March 2024 on the AFL website and it lists our potential out of contract/free agents as Tom McDonald Jake Melksham Adam Tomlinson^ Marty Hore* Joel Smith No mention of Hunter, when he joined us he had 2 years left on his WB contract. Imagine a player in that circumstance would be asking for an extra year to make the move worthwhile/secure as well.- Training Ground?
There are some reciprocal rights with Melbourne Racing Club where you can attend certain events at Caulfield. Maybe they want to boost that partnership a little? And also clear us out of the MCG.- Dusty Retires Immediately-ish?
Correct, but still played out very strangely.- Tim Membrey
Losing ANB a big loss for forward pressure. But Chin still very good with forward pressure. Tholstrup with another pre-season will only improve, he's shown he's happy to pressure/tackle. Petty was showing some good pressure/tackling towards end of season too. Hopefully Spargo has some built up aggression from his lost year too.- Go Sam Frost
Ah yes my bad - temporarily forgot.- Go Sam Frost
Ah yes my bad - temporarily forgot.- Tairon Ah-Mu - No access for Dees NGA Talent
Surely the AFL should just issue us an IOU Voucher- Welcome to Demonland: Jack Billings

6+4 is an outrageous deal, especially at a minnow/expansion club.- TMac Re-Signs for 1 Year
Think most of us on here did. Glad he's going around again.- Go Sam Frost
Went last week and saw the best and worst of the Frost man. Wish him well this week. Wonder how he'll go next year once Barrass and Battle are in the squad- Tairon Ah-Mu - No access for Dees NGA Talent
Well this is frustrating, interesting he's in the program but not eligible. I am sure the club were aware of this.- Tim Membrey
Schache/BBB/JSmith off the list. Tomo/Membrey seems a good balanced swap for us. - Welcome to Demonland: Tom Campbell
