True Believer

Got my seal of approval. Congrats to Wayne Carey on his footy career

great area...Hassett Room a good catch up room.

I was in Hobart a couple of weeks ago...and in their paper there was a small article on Ricky. He had put all contact talks on hold... as he was drawn between both. Loves the red and blue, BUT also misses his family and friends back home. He said he will let his footy do the talking ...!!!!!

you beat me ... must read the same paper as I do. Just posted this on Demonology then came here to post it again.... Happy Birthday Jimma....hope a win is amongst your pressies. Go Dees Go Jimma

Level 2 reserved "Redleg seats".....level 2a is reserved "Redlegs Area".... Able to get guest passes in this area. Great area to sit.

the sound system problem at MCG is NOTHING new....it has been a problem for years. I never heard the siren when we played Collingwood....thought we had marked the ball ready to kick the winning score...sadly not.

Judee...a very passionate member. Thanks for all your hard work.... from MFC email.... Women of Melbourne Profile - Judy Nicolson, MFC Member It’s no wonder that Melbourne Football Club Member, Judy Nicolson, has red and blue running through her veins; from the age of two, Nicolson would attend the football with her father and four siblings cheering on the mighty Demons. It was during the days when football was raw, and it was mostly standing room only around the many grounds that housed the VFL clubs. “My father started taking the five of us kids (to the football) when I was aged two. I hate to think of it now, but he would leave us all in the Grey Smith stand (MCG) and he would go into the men’s only area and then come back to give us a cup of tea at half time,” Nicolson says, laughing. “I think we used to run riot, but the old ladies used to look after us.” Today you will find Nicolson comfortably seated on level two, cheering on her beloved Demons, by their side through thick and thin. It was during the announcement of the possible merger between the Melbourne Football Club (MFC) and the Hawthorn Football Club in 1996, that Nicolson decided something needed to be done. She was not going to sit back while her club fell to the ground. “I became fully involved with the Club just after the possibility of a merger, I was very anti-merger and I became quite riled up about it. A fellow member and I got a group of volunteers together and we go into the Club and cold call the members who hadn’t joined up, any of the lapsed members who hadn’t re-signed, and encourage them to sign up,” Nicolson tells. “We had really great results from this and our knowledge and passion really got through to our fellow members.” Nicolson has also been involved with various fundraising activities within the Club, and has raised funds for projects such as getting the jumper to go back to star forward, Liam Jurrah’s, community, where Nicolson had the privilege to present it. A volunteer within the Club, Nicolson spends her time outside of the MFC working in a voluntary role within the Human Resources sector in recruitment as a mentor, after spending many years in the corporate sector as a HR Consultant. Nicolson also plays an integral role at the Port Phillip Prison, where she is a volunteer through the Red Cross. “I assist the visitors who visit the high protection prisoners, and mainly offer counselling. I give them a shoulder to cry on, cups of tea and just guide them through the process of visiting this area,” Nicolson says. “I sometimes work with people who are to be released that day and, for example, sometimes their partner may not show up, so we help them in that area.” Nicolson is very much about the present, and looks forward to a bright future for Melbourne led by the experienced, such as James McDonald, and also the up and coming youngsters in the team such as Jack Grimes. She hopes the Dees can notch up eight to ten wins for the season, and then proceed to make the finals during Season 2011. “I love our club - I feel it stands for integrity and passion, I just really love my boys,” she says with a smile.

do pet memberships count in the overall figure ?????

...."DARE TO DREAM".... says our legend Jimma

why why why !!!!!! simply not fair

Oh what a strange game. From bottom of the AFL ladder to 12th spot....after a loss. What a game, gotta love it. Bring on Crows and Tigers.....

Newton was ok today... not brilliant but worthy of another game atleast. His game today was better than Miller of last week !!

I'm with you...spoken like a real passionate demon. GO DEES

more of the same, please Bailey !!!!

cruel game ... can we blame the umps ???

from MFC webpage.... Demons clarify contract situation 8:11 PM Fri 02 April, 2010 In response to Mike Sheahan’s article in today’s Herald Sun, the Melbourne Football Club confirms the following in relation to Dean Bailey’s contract extension. The Club, Dean and his management reached agreement in writing prior to announcing the contract extension earlier this year. We are currently in the process of finalising his formal contractual agreement, which required clarification of some non-material matters. This will be completed as a matter of course.

they'll sign the dotted line, but I wish the MFC has a serious think first for the future of our mighty club

will be a better performance this week..all I really want, apart from a WIN is to atleast show some passion and effort. Go Dees

a couple of weeks should have been the penalty...AFL you are a joke

I've just sent off my letter... Not a harsh letter but after years of membership I feel I have a right to say how I feel....I feel better now

hard as this might sound...send a copy (above) to the club...maybe it will hit a nerve and feel some sympathy for our young supporters. A little something, like a signed poster would do some much for your daughter, maybe you could quietly suggest this...just for her moral and future support !!! Tell you daughter, we will win soon. !!.. and keep her passion for the best club in the world.

6 - Green 5 - McKenzie 4 - Scully 3 - McDonald 2 - Grimes 1 - Jamar

I have nothing good to say about the game today ( rather depressed and gutted) ...except Greeny you are our no.1 gutsy player. Come on guys dig deep. !!!!
