Jetta and LeCras
I take Lecras to be a Hanzo main tbh.

Support Melbourne
I think our support and membership numbers are quite strong and there is a positive there considering how poor we have been. Richmond only had 50k members in 2012. The challenge for us is that we have a small overall support base, so we need to increase that commitment ratio. Further, the high percentage of Melbourne supporters being members suggests the base has a high purchase intent, meaning game day and club sponsorship should be strong once we start playing consistently good football and finals. The downside is that from a broadcasting point of view, unless we are performing well, there is little way to justify primetime fixturing. People carry on about Carlton but harsh reality is that they *must* bring in viewers. No one wants to watch Melbourne unless they're performing.

Support Melbourne
We may not have won the quarter but imo we won the mental battle. Every time they won a centre clearance, they scored a goal, but we kept it even and often scored the other way. That was deflating for them. Even when they hit the front you could tell that the Eagles were down on confidence. We won that third quarter in the next best way.

Brendon Goddard
Surely you jest? He won't get another gig the way he carried on at Essendon this year.

Jetta and LeCras
He told him he sucked at Fortnite. Jetta responded by saying he's an adult and that he plays Dota and that Fornite is for little kids. Lecras then said Dota sucks. Cue fight.

Cyril Rioli
He would be an upgrade on Garlett no doubt.

Was the win against West Coast rigged?
What we got away with and the Eagles DIDN'T get doesn't compare to some of the weak BS rhey *do* get. The umpiring was very good on Sunday. Both ways. Omac definitely should have been penalised but it wouldn't have made a difference imo. If you do watch the replay though, his head is down as he collects the ball and is tackled, so he doesn't quite duck into it.

Finals Tickets
Members tickets technically are non transferrable, and in the time since we last played, the league and MCG have been pretty aggressive with regards to that. I've seen both someone's MCC membership revoked (2012), and had my dad's AFL Gold membership downgraded to silver for 12 months when I went with a mate to watch a final in 2010 and gave him that membership to use. Now I believe it's a straight up revoke. All types of membership have in the T&Cs that you may be asked for ID.

Run home to Finals - 2018
I'm confused. If you finish top 4 and you lose week one, you get a home final in week 2. How did you conclude we have to travel to Sydney or Perth?Top 2 guarentees at least two home final, top 4 at least 1. Positions 5-6 is a maximum of one, while 7-8 is no home finals.

What they're saying over at Roberts Road
If you want to get an idea of how utterly pathetic a fanbase the Eagles contingency is, go and check at Melbourne's Instagram stories. There is one where Nathan Jones is strolling over to give a kid a mini football after the win, and a degenerate Eagles supporter is booing him. Someone posted it on Bigfooty and sure enough the Eagles flogs over there were actually trying to justify it. They're a bunch of imbreds.

Lions to take ownership of longest finals drought
If Brisbane can hold onto Beams would not be surprised if they smoke a few teams next year and make finals. A team with 5 wins and a percentage of 90%. They're doing something right.
