  1. pencil in JAMA... at this point as well
  2. The question was raised think with DB last week before the game and he still suggested it will be post mid season but he is pushing hard for selection or something to that effect. But it does sound like he is getting close.
  3. "M" is what I have had as ground, for some reason i thought the stands were like this grnd, lvl 1, lvl 2 etc maybe its the sthn stand or TD i am confused. but Premium membership i think is section N - Pres Club, Captains club etc. What I am proposing is the seats below these at grnd level to have 1st come seating for members on small forcast crowds like sunday! Would love to sit in the pres or captains club, but enjoy it too much being a bit closer.
  4. Get in contact with the club and the membership department on the website, you never know they might be able to get a special call made ala the debt demolition calls by players. Failing that I like the mothers day idea! just make sure she is given red and blue flowers!
  5. might take a pic or 2 on sunday to prove my point as well in an area that would be/should be "sold out" on the books. Anyone else with similar areas should do the same and the next week submit this post to the MFC and see what they think.
  6. spot on, re family area thats has an unbelievable atmospher this was the driving factor for the suggestion being that for small games we struggle to have any atmospher at all (ignore freo and Bris wins last year)
  7. Great Post, I have always been one that believes that the wet shows the classy players skills even more. Trav is one that comes to mind playing in terrible conditions in rd 1 or 2 he dominated for bris, 1 hand pickups, silky finishing etc etc etc. Poor skills generally get worse when it is wet. Where i believe we have an advantage over adelaide is the big 22. He will smash em on water sodden ground look out for beamer!
  8. Well he put his hand up for selection last sun with a nice grab in the 2nd!
  9. You can bet your bottom dollar every side would be interested in him. he is in the top five players in the AFL and IMHO top 2 forwards (j brown) is the only guy I would currently chase before pav. Therefore minus those that have salery issues (carlt$n) every other club except bris/stk/Haw due to current forward setups would be interested in his services. He will be as hot an item as juddy was if he decideds to put himself on the market.
  10. Not so silly, I wonder if barry hall ices his head rather then his hammies after every game? (or has a bowl of fruit loops)
  11. Would you Support Nth Gnd Reserve to be open for all members on small games yes [ 30 ] ** [88.24%] no [ 4 ] ** [11.76%] I would be very interested to hear the thoughts for the 11.76% for not being in support of this. I actually expected far closer to 95-100% support for something like this?
  12. One of the best games I enjoyed last year was getting soaked watching us get pumped by geelong under lights. Not only did they teach us a lesson that night but I really believe that this was the game that our backline came of age. 100pt thrasing yet I had our backline up on points. Makes wins from here just that more enjoyable. Maybe I'm a little sick?
  13. my reserved seat on gnd level is definately a dry zone as is the whole section. It has been this way from the day the stand opened? unless there was a slack staff member at the top of the stairs? I wonder if were getting confused about grnd & lvl 1. I'm sure lvl 1 in the nthern stand is for captains club etc and is on the 1st tier of the stand not ground level?
  14. Same could have been argued with carlton and ju$$. At this point you would have to say ViSy FC made the right choice?
  15. Careful OGD, your making too much sense for this site!
  16. Thats the only issue with these seats, but trust me you get used to chuggin them down at 1/4 and 1/2 time. But there would be nothing stopping the same approach for the seats in the sth stand for those who enjoy an ale while the games on.
  17. I was only 20 rows back and it was sundays game that really got me thinking. the last time I enjoyed a game (be it a terrible game) as much as this would have been against the doggies at TD when brown broke his leg. That day the club had a members area and same as sunday it was a terrible standard game but again one of the best atmospheres to sit in. If enough votes are cast and its in favour of the section i think this post will need to be passed onto the club. Could also be a dress code of red or blue on or no entry as well!
  18. 45 this is one of my biggest gripes as well. Another is that I have had real bug for the last 10yrs or so about a few of our "band-wangon type" members that purchase reserved seat memberships yet are never there when we are not going as well apart from the big games. I have always had a reserved seat for home games ever since the "red seats" were removed. One of the 2 biggest reasons for having this ticket is the atmosphere. The other is to not sit with the opporsition filth - refer Mr Jones! Unfortunately the first reason has overtime deteriated really badly to the stage where I can remember up to 6 games in the last 2 seasons where there were lucky to be 50 people in our bay for a home game. Therefore I would propose for the smaller drawing crowds to open the bottom level of the nth stand to MFC members (and MCC if they wished) to sit in a "fanatics area". This would use approx 5-10k of seating more effectively thus opening more space in the sth stand for general on the bottom as well. This could well facilitate a closure of the top sections and have a real members wing once again plus a real home ground advantge by concerntrating our supporters. Target 2010! bring us together and make some noise. One of my fondest memmorys was having diamond joe come down and sit with us in a last quater win after getting soaked for the 1st 3 but still sitting with plenty of red/blue around us! I would have no issue paying the same price for my current Nth stand ground reserve seat and only have a reserve for say the big 6 (Coll, Ess, Carl, Rich, Haw) and any other game as a 1st come for the seating in a members stronghold. There can be no issue with seating allocation (premium etc) as many times for away games some of these same seats can be general admission anyway.
  19. I hope that CS, CC and DB have all been in contact with the great man to make sure that he is ok and if he needs any support from the MFC he just needs to call. If we were to finishing with a priority pick this year I would have no issues giving up our 2nd pick for the PAV. All of a sudden our "disfunctional" forwardline would be amazing. I really think we could be in with a shot on a player like pav this year, unless QC17 beat us to it. It would be interesting if anyone in the media is aware of his relationship with harvey vs CC+CS?
  20. 20,091 Hopeing for break even, 4pm start on a sunday with bad weather forcast big chance of being less then 20k. But I'll be there rain, hail or shine
  21. Understand that when playing interstate you must take an emergency with you, but for a local game this seems a little strange. Cheeny has been a gem thus far so i can't understand why one would risk putting him out of form by not playing. Unless it was a way of managing a young player by scheduling a weeks rest? General soreness/flu etc? I can't remember many if there have been times that emergencies did not play in either side for a local game unless there was an issue.
  22. But he didn't play for casey, has to be more to this one? teams are in fri so surely he could have played at casey on sat if this was the reason??
  23. If its the one I'm thinking of, it was a discrace he did not win a free kick for incorrect disposal. What ever happened to that rule? Prior opportunity and then a crunching tackle that forced the ball free. Dunn also dumped one of the young tiogs in our forwardline with a heavy one as well. Once upon a time the only one that could tackle in our side was wheels.
