I've sent text message to the anti social behaviour phone number. Only obvious contact number shown anywhere around ground. Hoepfully someone there could pass on to maintenance people to swap out the seat. They got 3 hours 🤷‍♂️

Poor bugger in Q50, row B seat 2 has an uncomfortable night ahead ☹️

General public tickets almost a sell out. Category 1 - N11, N31, N33 Category 7 - very back of Q1 to Q6

Another good achievement is that we finished 2nd despite playing literally half of our season against top 8 sides. Meanwhile Richmond .... 🙄

Can someone who is better at maths than me work out how many points Sydney's pre game percentage lead over us equated to? 10 points? 20 points?

Haha, love it! This was definitely the general sentiment at the ground too. Lots of noise until Melksham kicked his goal, then it was panic, then it was absolute crickets after Kozzy got the winner.

Are you not entertained? 😅

I guess this is the most appropriate thread for this. Apologies if it's a re-post! Either way, enjoy! 😎

Just got home. How many of you here are the poor bastards who gave up and left with 2 mins to go? Fess up! 😅

Kozzy just came out and is warming up

If it hasn't already been mentioned, we have an AFLW Practice match tomorrow at the MCG vs Carlton. Gates open 4:15pm. Game starts 4.40pm Just incase anyone feels like a double header 🙂

Could be wrong, but I think someone here said that he has issues between the ears? Lacks the needed desire, discipline, attitude.. etc

@Demonland 👆 Lifetime ban please! 😉

I had a 'fun' walk over William Barrack Bridge and down into Birrarung after the game. For most of the walk there was an old codger on his motorised scooter weaving his way around the çrowd until he found a Melbourne supporter. He then rolled up beside them, hit them with a zinger that he obviously thought was hilarious, then scootered off to the next guy in non-Filth colours and did it again. I was tempted to point out that he was a bit hard to understand cause his falsies weren't in and that he'd be better served focusing on breathing from the oxygen tank he was hooked up to rather than mouthing off to people, but I probably woulda got bashed for picking on an old guy. There is a reason they are called the Filth.

I'd be interested to know how he still has a two week suspension after losing the first appeal. Isn't there supposed to be some sort of incentive/disincentive built in? Accept your punishment and get what you get. Challenge and its an extra week? If not, and if it's just a free hit, why wouldn't everyone challenge every suspension?

Thanks Gonzo. I'll give that a try next time. Glad to hear I can still get a spot on Friday. Quite like sitting up there anyway!

Can I ask... when you guys say "general admission is sold out", does that just mean for non-members who are trying to buy a ticket to the game? Or would it also apply to those with general admission membership, like me? Given we have to wait till 7.50pm tonight before we can even get the mobile membership ticket, it'd be a bit annoying if regular punters who can already buy them online have taken all the seats.

Thats great! I'm seeing my family for the first time in about that long too, also in September. I leave just after the first final, so I'm praying to the footy gods that we either get a home game or are playing another VIC side.

Better still if in that scenario, Brisbane beat the Filth in the Qualifying final: QF1: *GEELONG* v Fremantle QF2: *BRISBANE LIONS* v Collingwood EF1: *SYDNEY* v Western Bulldogs EF2: Carlton v *MELBOURNE* SF1: *FREMANTLE* v Sydney SF2: Collingwood v *MELBOURNE* PF1: Geelong v *MELBOURNE* PF2: *BRISBANE LIONS* v Fremantle GF: *MELBOURNE* v Brisbane Lions All our games would be at the G 👍

I was just about to post the same thing. Here is quick worst case scenario if we lose every game and all other results go as you'd expect... W L D 1. Geelong 18 4 0 137.8% 2. Brisbane Lions 17 5 0 126.4% 3. Collingwood 17 5 0 106.2% 4. Fremantle 15 6 1 119.1% 5. Sydney 15 7 0 126.7% 6. Carlton 14 8 0 112.8% 7. Melbourne 13 9 0 120.7% 8. Western Bulldogs 13 9 0 111.1% 9. Richmond 11 10 1 111.2% 10. St Kilda 11 11 0 97.1% 11. Gold Coast 10 12 0 104.8% 12. Essendon 10 12 0 92.5% 13. Port Adelaide 9 13 0 101.7% 14. Hawthorn 8 14 0 91.6% 15. Adelaide 7 15 0 87.7% 16. GWS 5 17 0 85.0% 17. West Coast 2 20 0 58.7% 18. North Melbourne 2 20 0 56.2% QF1: *GEELONG* v Fremantle QF2: Brisbane Lions v *COLLINGWOOD* EF1: *SYDNEY* v Western Bulldogs EF2: Carlton v *MELBOURNE* SF1: *FREMANTLE* v Sydney SF2: Brisbane Lions v *MELBOURNE* PF1: Geelong v *MELBOURNE* PF2: *COLLINGWOOD* v Fremantle GF: *MELBOURNE* v Collingwood 😎

Early pre-draft pages of this thread make for interesting reading... 😂 (And all the obligatory gems from Dr.D and friends since)

In the 2000's... Melbourne 18 North Melbourne 17 Western Bulldogs 13 St Kilda 10 Richmond 8 Carlton 3 Hawthorn 3 Essendon 2 Collingwood 0 Filth havent played there since 1999

This is the content I come here for

When Eddie gets on his soapbox about something no one else can get a word in, especially if anyone has the gall to disagree with him. Not a fan of Caro, but glad she at least tried to pull him up. He makes the Wednesday Classified is near unwatchable now.
