For those like me who find it easier to read like the old fridge magnets used to be

Sunday 3:15pm footy here we go...

Would be very surprised if Anzac Eve isn't the only Friday/Thursday that we get.

It does feel like the board made a decision based on a gut feel rather than going through a proper process. I have been in the sack Simon camp for a long time now and I suspect this is the right decision but it has yet again been handled so poorly by the club and by the leadership players who leaked it to the media. Simon is correct, we are a better team than the 7-14 record suggests and we have finally started to properly change the way we play. What we have done is forget how to win, we are 4-14 in games decided by less than 13 points since round 20 2023. He is the least respected premiership coach in the history of the game and this is further proof of that. If he puts his personal issues behind me, he will probably be an excellent hire for another team with a stable off-field. We will always be thankful for 2021. The 2023 finals series will always haunt us and ultimately that was on him.

Its a shame because we would have beaten 16 other teams yesterday. Given our percentage we would need to win 14 games to make it and would miss with 13. Just cant see us going 9-1 over the last 10. The three interstate trips in a row are killer.

I have woken up feeling very sad and sorry for myself. At least we havent lost to Collingwood over the last few years having more scoring shots, more inside fifties, more contested ball, less uncontested marks, less free kicks and less luck. oh wait.

If you ask every member to pay $20 more for the year to make up the money we get from the NT in order to play an extra Melbourne game, nobody will say no.

Season died at 0-5, became slightly undead at 5-6, became very dead in Alice again. Sod off with the Alice Springs game.

The good news is that only single seats remain now for KB of the Tridents & Reflags areas.

The decrease of around 20,000 over two years is ridiculous.

I think you should lose your membership. Unfortunately, so many people have dropped off that there is no more waitlist for GF guarantee seats.

No, the unused seats in m53 were available under the Melbourne supporter allocation and are all sold out. But you could only access them with Melbourne membership barcodes. The reason Collingwood people get into our reserved areas is because our members give them their tridents/redlges/demon seats plus cards to get into the ground.

For any GA members that haven't reserved a seat yet for King's Birthday or don't want to sit amongst Collingwood supporters or are worried about the GA area being full, put ur ga barcode into ticketek. The Melbourne allocation now includes the unsold reserved seats in the Tridents and Redlegs areas in the Southern stand on level 2 and 2a available for sale. Hopefully these can be bought by Melbourne members before they go on sale to the general public in the week of the game.
