  1. Chardonnay showers for everyone 😂 Is Freo the poor cousin of the Weagles?

    The Holy Grail AFLX 😎
  3. For sure we want more than that but let's start with the short-mid term plans. I believe it is a synergy that once it clicks just keeps rolling.

    I may be colour blind 😂 Nah I was taking the [censored] about feeling lonely. I may just be spoiled because the game I felt in love with the club was the 2018 elimination final against Geelong, boy oh boy! what an atmosphere it was!

    I think FC Barcelona is maroon and blue? I also go for them btw. I meant to say all the teams that are nicknamed devils or demons. In terms of game day experience I do tend to get carried away, I am one of those vocal and loud supporters (I have found myself shouting BALL! as much as the next bloke).
  6. I am hopeful we do understand that. I think all the necessary foundation are there (young talent, cap space?, star players committed long term). Jackson and Oliver contracts will be key and pivotal for the next phase of long sustained success.

    Red Devils not going well I am afraid, bottom of the ladder ala 2009-2013 Dees. It seems that the demon family around the world (ManU, AC Milan et al) is not doing so well except for the MFC.

    No hard feelings from my side, I just don't like to feel lonely at the game haha (last game only myself and my missus were sitting in our designated row).
  9. Can't see the current list plummeting in the next 6 or 7 years, provided that we have an adequate list management plan.
  10. Are you suggesting Bowey can take Salem's place in the half backline? I do like Bowey's use of the ball but at the same time I feel Salem is more damaging for our transitions to our forward half. Can't make up my mind on this idea.

    I for one will not miss one single home game, unless I am not in the country. I guess each to his own, but our players definitely deserve better. GO DEES!

    So what's the preference of the majority of our members and supporters? I have read people complaining about night time games and asking for more twilight/arvo games (can't see the club not wanting to be in the prime time slots)
  13. So annoying that the media only talks about us is how X or Y team has shown how to beat us. No mention whatsoever of our struggles with COVID, like it was nothing. Bit frustrating considering we are the benchmark and reigning premiers 😤
  14. I can't believe any self respecting footy supporter doesn't know MFC's number 13. Top 5 player of the competition.
  15. ElDiablo14 replied to rpfc's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    That can be a bit misleading. We shouldn't compare raw numbers but rather capacity %. 40,000 at Marvel is great. 42,000 at the G is not great.
  16. ElDiablo14 replied to rpfc's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    That may be right, however all (or almost all) the reserved seat areas are sold out. I am in the redlegs level 2 and for all the 3 games I have attended this year, not once I have seen that level full capacity. I Think maybe 60 to 70 % at best. Yesterday it looked more like 45 - 50 % capacity (funny enough my wife and I were the only ones in the row we have our seats on).
  17. ElDiablo14 replied to rpfc's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yep, I have missed only the GWS game. I will miss multiple games (around 3) later in the season because I am going overseas, but will try to watch them live on Kayo.
  18. It seems most people here think the Geriatric Cats are done... I am one of them 😎
  19. Skipper, Clarry the Beast, Trac the Bull, Jake "Rick" Lever, Steven "the General" May, Christian "Clean Skills" Salem, BBB, Luke "Dogga" Jackson, Harrison "The Wall" Petty, Jake "Undefeated" Bowey, Jack "Mongrel" Viney, Bayley Fritsch Honorable mentions : Spargo, ANB,Rivers, Hunt, Langdon ( I really want him in my 12 but hard to remove one of the above), Brayshaw. I think I need a top 18 😂😂
  20. ElDiablo14 replied to rpfc's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    But we can't always blame the opposition supporters or expect them to come to our home games. We now have 60k members, did they pay for an empty seat?
  21. ElDiablo14 replied to rpfc's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    What do we make of another lackluster crowd last night? I still can't fathom a reason for more than 60% to be absent to our home games. In a season (second in a row) in which we should be basking in the success and drive of this team, it is definitely sad to see the MCG half empty.
  22. If only Jim could've watched him become a star 🥹
  23. It'll be close race no doubt, hopefully Clarry is aware of this and is a man possessed for the next 10 or so games. In any case, touching wood, Clayton's career seems to be injury free so should have better stats in the end.
  24. Do you know what's the replacement home game for the Alice one?
  25. Wouldn't rounding it up to 9 be more accurate?
