2022 Crowd Traditions
"That NZ dance thing" is the haka, which is a huge part of NZ culture and tradition and has been performed pre-game by the All Blacks since early 1900. Please don't throw that in the same basket as the manufactured BS that Port do. Liverpool is tolerable because that was started by the fans.

Carlton to get on the 'selfless' bandwagon
Certainly is! Wait till they do the player profiles for this year's draft prospects. We'll probably start seeing the "plays like.... " line, and it'll be one of our guys!

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
Absolutely nuts what he is doing this early for a guy of his size/experience. He played the GF as a 19yo and turned 20 today. 😳

Closest to the mark...2022 membership total
Premiership should get us an extra 10,000 new or returning members at least. Then there are the ~25,000 Melbourne supporting MCC members who don't have dual MFC/MCC membership. 65,000 seems realistic, but if some of the MCC guys jump aboard cracking 75,000 is definitely possible. I'll go 71,966

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
All the news coming out of the NRL over last 24 hours has made me think about our boys in Perth. I hope they are having the time of their lives, but doing so sensibly and not getting involved in the WA party scene or into any compromising situations with the locals.

The Ollie Whines Lounge
It's probably already been said, but if we had taken Wines, we probably wouldn't have had one of Oliver or Petracca today. Similarly, whilst 2019 was a horrible year, without it we wouldn't have Jackson, and probably not have Kossie either. Silver linings in everything.

What does the number 57 represent?
Max is #11 👉 1 + 1 = 2 Max kicked 5 goals in prelim 👉 11 x 5 = 55 👉 2 + 55 = 57 Who needs Cam Mooney? 😎

I had a sleepness night last night, but when I did drift off had a vivid dream of the final score tonight, and BOG. Wrote it down so I wouldn't forget. Would it be bad luck to post it here?

Your first MFC Game/Best MFC Game/Worst MFC Game
I moved to Melbourne from NZ in late 1999, and after many 'recruitment' attempts from Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon & Richmond fans I settled on the Demons. 2000 I thought I'd enter myself in an online tipping competition and I guess with no pre-conceived ideas about the teams or who the players were, I managed to win. Prize was 4 tickets to each week of the finals series, including the GF, so the first game I saw live was the Qualifying final vs Carlton. Probably still my favorite game, ahead of the 2 x 2018 finals. Been to plenty of bad games, but the worst, probably because of how disappointed/mad I was afterwards was round 23, 2017 where had to beat the Filth to make finals, but choked and finished the season 9th.

PF: Melbourne vs Geelong
Considering some still question what ANB brings to the table and are apparently happy to trade away Brayshaw and/or Sparrow I'm not sure a subjective opinion on an anonymous forum is going to appease too many here. If it's true....

PF: Melbourne vs Geelong
I'm sorry, but my red undies, red socks, dark blue trackies, royal blue superman t-shirt and home made red & blue beanie (thanks MIL) beg to differ. Stuck with that same combo all season 😎
