What was your excuse?
Obviously there are very real reasons why people canāt get to games. If you live interstate or have to drive hours each way, you have kids etc. Mental illness or financial reasons, your own personal health is paramount and following melb probably isnāt ideal for both mental and physical. I posted this thread to ask the regulars that live in melbourne who make up most the 40k local melb members. If this thread has annoyed you good.

What was your excuse?
If you don't think a crowd of 40k screaming Melb fans wouldn't have an impact. It says more about you.

Grand Final Entertainment
King Stingray would be a good local band to have play. They have an aboriginal front man āļø Three decent bangers and would get the crowd pumping. Could easily get the to play a few famous AFL covers.

PREGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS
Unfortunately Bowey is one of Goodwinās untouchables just like Sparrow. I thought Bowey was better this week. Sparrow is just getting caught in no manās land too often. He could use a week at Casey to fill his boots as the main man and get some Confidence back, but Goodwin must not rate the standard of the VFL at all. Refuses to bring anyone back through it who he sees as starting 18.

Goody is a genius!!!
Apologise to Fullarton? The coach doesnāt have to be liked by every player. I think what he said is spot on, everyone complains he gives nothing. He stated a fact. if he said Verrell was more likely to play than Fullerton as ruck maybe youād have a case.

POSTGAME: Rd 19 vs Fremantle
Anyone who went in thinking we could win this didnāt take the following into account. This team is young. Last week the average age of the team on the field was less than Essendonās and theyāre rebuilding. Weāve been up for a month in terms of consistency of effort. Thats hard for young players to maintain. Freo Pumped us in Alice and we had Gawn & Max.

Oliver Trade Rumours
Couldn't disagree more. Viney could easily be used as a forward. He is a better kick for goal than he gets credit for. He applies pressure and tackles like a beast and can take a mark.

A new dawn for the Demons - our 2025 squad
Cmon mate. They arenāt trading Sparrow, heās not having a good year, but theyāre playing him on a wing and as a High Half fwd when he is an inside mid. Give Laurie more than 1 or 2 games and see if he can show something, he plays in the midfield at Casey have a look at him at AFL in the middle. Set and forget Woewoden in the 22. Agree with BBB Shache š¤ You can call me crazy, but if the right deal came along and we could trade Salem for a high end pick/s and then use that to get a genuine B+ to A grade midfielder. Iād do it in a heart beat. I love him, but he is injury prone and slow, great skills and is tougher than he looks but unless he can consistently start to show his 2021 form he is just another half back. Apart from our forward like licking windows for 2 years, if we donāt try and replace Brayshaw we could have Carey Ablett and Farmer up forward and weād still be [censored]. Iād also be paying out Stafford and getting an actual Forward line coach.

Iām sorry about your dad. Yeah we all watched on TV (those who lived in Victoria and were locked in by Dictator Dan). AFL clubs are like family. You donāt get to pick them, like your friends. I was saying to a mate on the phone post game. We should have known that even when Melb were having their best era of 50+ years theyād still manage to torture us. It wonāt stop me going and suffering through though.
