Pickett still has a niggling injury....heard he will play for Sandringham but if available will be straight onto my IN list. He along with Rivers would be a welcome return.

Other teams, coaches, supporters alike continually state we have alot of depth at Melbourne. Let's use it. Enough with the giving "this" bloke or "this" bloke another week or chance....we've taken enough risks in the past thinking we can "win" with this team or this team. What happened....more embarrassing losses ie: Carlton...TWICE. Ring in the changes. OUT: McLean, C Johnson, M Whelan, D Ward, C Bartram, D Bell IN: C Bizzell, R Ferguson, P Johnson, N Brown, J Rivers

So much for Neale saying it was Friday night, on the big stage, the season opener, being thrilled to have all eyes on Melbourne.... Embarrassing.

No excuses, only solutions. Posession football has been a lingering disease at Melbourne since the days of John Northey and Neale Balme. It needs to go.

I'll be in The Redlegs making some noise. Game on moles!

That's terrible news. Thoughts go out to his family. Hope we can get up and win for him on Friday night.

It's about time....I think both parties had forgotten their long standing connection and one passion - Melbourne Football Club. Let's see what membership numbers we can pull now.

Which guernsey will we be wearing tomorrow?

All the more reason to start Podcasting...let's move with the times and reach out to the supporters and hope to sign a few more members!

I was about 9 years old and didnt make it to the game....the tranny was the next best thing. Brilliant!

A good opportunity for the club to lead the way...IPOD shuffle $99... {You don't even need an IPOD if it's in MP3 format, you can listen to it anywhere!}

I believe that Melbourne FC would have some control over what access they can gain to match games, videos, audio etc... Alot of these podcasts are free on itunes and it only provides free publicity for the football club. It doesnt necessarily need to be match games or video....simple audio regarding club news, changes within the club, upcoming events and more importantly player interviews - this giving people the chance to know the players on a different level. Channel 7 will have alot more control now also so what is stopping them from allowing clubs to reach out to their members and supporters?

Have Melbourne FC thought about Podcasting? I've come across alot of EU Football/Soccer podcasts on itunes and think the Dees should lead the way in providing more avenues to reach members and fans "across the world". Ideas and thoughts welcome...

We'll give it a good shake....there's $500,000 up for grabs - the $1 million prize pool to pull off the Grand Final/NAB double!

Launceston? Is that confirmed?

Hope the Dees are in the Top 2 which will almost guarantee our matches are played on free to air. Foxtel are a complete rip off. Look what they did with Love My Way...

Anybody know when, who or where some practice matches are taking place?

I support any day you guys schedule. Count me in for the 11th.

I signed up the first week of December and got the email today. I'm member: 13,876. {Not impressed seeing I submitted my forms earlier than the cut-off}. I still haven't recieved anything in the mail yet either, even though I have seen heaps of '07 bumper stickers on cars... :angry:

Here are the details to the MFC Family Day. I'm free on both 11th and 18th, I'm just not sure whether some of the guys off here will be down at the Junction Oval on the 18th?? MELBOURNEfc Family Day Sunday 18 February 2007 When: Sunday 18 February 2007 Time: 12 noon to 3.00 pm Where: Junction Oval, St Kilda Melways ref 58 A7 Parking: Limited parking is avaliable for $2.00 Public transport: All day Sunday Metcards are available for $2.50. Free entry for members and a gold coin donation for non-members.

I think it's called Mighty Hawks and or/ Hawks Headquarters.

Sunday Feb 18 is the MFC Family Day @ Junction Oval from 12pm - 3pm... Sun Feb 11th?

I totally support this. This is the way it should be - FREE TO AIR. SBS would do a great job I'm sure, just like Seven and Ten's joint efforts. I did hear that the SBS coverage would be available via digital tv into Sydney... but if digital is available here in Melbourne, would we be able to watch it too? I think this is the best decision made thus far in this coverage war between networks. Now if only SBS, Ten and Seven would sign the dotted line...

Merry Christmas Everyone.
