  1. i'll just call us 'down the road' caulfield is just one component of the wider melbourne diaspora
  2. same same but different
  3. fairly normal to think of each club as an extension of the same name's grammar - toffs in town vs landed gentry i maintain dingley is just the nouveau riche melbourne fc; we won 12 premierships from 1900-1964; they won 12 from 1965-2015 13 each in total now
  4. nissan here the other retort to when people say "where are the fans? at the snow?" the response is always "oh, please, as IF we'd ski LOCAL; it's aspen in february and japan in october" having never been to either...
  5. couldn't agree more just like the notion of us being toffs and going to the snow in range rovers, i think our boutique crowd sizes are symptomatic that we are the elite we invented the game; others are just lucky to play it
  6. reckon you've misunderstood hoyne's point
  7. fritsch has definitely not been our 'best forward' over the last 50 years but he has been our best forward in our most successful period since neitz was our best forward in our previous successful period under daniher neitz has a coleman, fritsch has a premiership i reckon i know what neitz would have traded to claim the latter...
  8. so ~62,700 there tonight last year baggers had 107k members, dingley had 89k - just shy of 200k members in total where were they? watching from the comfort of their fishbowls, dog cages, and cat climbers?
  9. so would the aints - he was in their academy in the same year that mac andrew was in ours
  10. hinkley has already gone
  11. maggots really calling against cripps tonite almost like they realise giving him 45 brownlow votes last season might've been...excessive
  12. gotta be hopefully sestan can come on quickly in his new role as a half-back at casey
  13. well, people ARE living longer... and boomers have more disposable income than any other generation...
  14. 1994 and 2000 finals comes to mind
  15. i really don't rate saad at all for someone who gets fawned over for his kicking, he turns it over far, far too much
  16. i'd much prefer the likes of langford and lndsay get an early season opportunity in lieu of billings
  17. mckay out ill
  18. i'd go... IN: spargo, turner OUT: windsor, johnson
  19. meth coke, according to riley at pravda, sniffed around last year
  20. he's not wrong hence why a gw$ or dingley style campaign wouldn't work for the mfc
  21. ah sorry, right you are currently acting ceo
  22. yes and no; depends upon what the return on investment looks like from an engagement to activation to conversion ratio i'm guessing, but i suspect ours would be very low, whereas gw$ have very different aims and outcomes with their social strategy
  23. no, i don't think social mediia activation is her role at all
  24. got a spare $5-800k a season to pay a consultant to come up with it?
  25. chippendall, our coo (previously cfo)
