  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Season died at 0-5, became slightly undead at 5-6, became very dead in Alice again. Sod off with the Alice Springs game.
  5. It’s closed
  6. The good news is that only single seats remain now for KB of the Tridents & Reflags areas.
  7. The decrease of around 20,000 over two years is ridiculous.
  8. I think you should lose your membership. Unfortunately, so many people have dropped off that there is no more waitlist for GF guarantee seats.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. MCG won't post that until tomorrow or more likely Friday. Expect 35K, hopeful of 40k. Sunday 3:20pm is not a great drawing slot, we got 42.5k in the same slot in 2023 when we still had optimism around the club. 52k against them in 2018 in the 3:20 but that was the BCNA game. Need the weather to hold up. Currently 17 and sunny on Sunday but miserable every other day around it.
  12. Hi all, My 2 Redlegs seats in P7 will be available for King's Birthday as I'll be in the Zoo that is the AFL reserve. Please let me know if you would like to avoid the chaos of Collingwood supporters - tickets are free of charge.
  13. You couldn't have two least qualified people for the job. Andrew Dillon, i am sure is a very smart man and lawyer, but he clearly isn't a football fan and has no passion for the game. I love quiet people in leadership who aren't overbearing and arrogant, but he just gives nothing and doesn't seem to offer any leadership at all. Laura Kane is 34, a failed lawyer who ran North Melbourne's football program when they were a bottom 2 side. Now all of a sudden, she is qualified to run football operations for the whole leave ffs. Has nothing to do with gender either. Her and Dillon are just the wrong people for the job.
  14. Agree entirely, nothing better than Saturday or Sunday 1pm games and our crowds reflect that.
  15. Sunday 3:20s yum. Deserved, but at least its FTA and not 4:40. We don't deserve nice things because we are [censored] on the field and off the field, we haven't been better.
  16. No Sue, you are just making excuses for them. They don’t need that, they need to be better.
  17. Bad kicking is bad football wherever it is. Has nothing to do with Casey fields.
  18. Ok but if I’m Bailey Fritsch and I’m 20 out directly in front I reckon if I aim between the big sticks it probably goes through.
  19. Our players aren't good enough. Simple chat.
  20. Us losing the game had absolutely nothing to do with coaching or Clayton Oliver being a tagger. Clayton is a bigger liability for the midfield as a non-tagger turning the ball over with every possession than he is as a tagger. We lose that game because of very simple set shots and snaps (Fritsch, Windsor, Gawn, Chandler, Spargo, Langdon) which should have had us 5 goals up at 3qt. We are then unfit because Selwyn Griffith is not good enough at his job. The gameplan gave us the opportunity to win and our players aren't good enough to take it. I am as a big an advocate for sacking Goodwin as anyone, but this isn't on him or Clarry tagging.
  21. That one deserves a 2am Tuesday morning game.
  22. Article posted to herald sun 10 minutes ago about the fixture. Hopefully someone here can post it.
  23. Please let me know if anyone would like to sit in my redlegs seats on level 2a in P7. I will be in the afl as usual tonight so I am happy to message the location of the seats for anyone scanning in and planning on going GA.
  24. They exhausted them last night because they were setting the general admission areas for the ground. Once they set those they work out whether they think they can sell more GA in addition to the expected GA member turnout which tends to be massive for this games it is still going to draw between 65-75 based on ticket sales.
  25. There are plenty $27 GA tickets available for sale still. GA areas have also been posted to the MCG Website
