Will drop next year for sure

Then got belted by the Crows in round 6 by almost 80 points before going on a run of losses (4 losses in a row).

The size of Punt Rd oval didn't seem to worry the Tigers over the last 5 years

Just remind them on Saturday last year doesn't count, it was a Mickey Mouse comp and the GF wasn't even played in Victoria! Our AFLX trophy has more significance than their 2020 flag

Yeah and then got wiped off the park by the Crows in round 6 - something for Melbourne supporters to keep in mind if things go against us on the weekend

Dunno if you're familiar with the MFC od but we are still a pretty threadbare organisation competing against behemoths like West Coast who keep $60m in the bank for a rainy day.

Way to jinx us!

Scored 10 tickets in AFL members this morning, 6 on the wing 5 rows back and another 4 on the flank about 20 rows back Bring it on!

News corp presents him as a "man of the people" so if you ever need confirmation of what Murdoch thinks of the general public there's your answer - beer swilling, chain-smoking, incoherent, semi-literate yobbos.

That was right in front of us on the southern stand side and I was worries he'd injured a rib or jaw or something. Came out as though nothing happened after half time (saw it mentioned he copped a "low blow" which may explain why he was down for so long - it's his Achilles heel)

Just got an email from AFL membership which makes it sound as though crowds will not be increased for this week

I I highly doubt it - AFL membership trialled a couple of games this past weekend where people had to enter contact details for every person they were purchasing tickets for in anticipation of going back to 100%. So you'll still need to reserve tickets and you'll also need the contact details of anyone you're our purchasing tickets for

Surely its back to 100% this week? What is the point of reduced crowds when they just shut off the top level and herd everyone in close together anyway? Utterly pointless.

Or just start sabotaging the speaker system ?

Jump on board Demons, pester your family, friends, neighbours, colleagues to sign up and get to 50k members. Even just a 3 game membership, every bit counts.

Well the thread is titled "Is Gawn the best player we have EVER had?" (emphasis added) Bring us home a cup after almost 60 years and I might reconsider though ?

Exactly, this is a footy club not a supercoach team

Ask me in another 4-6 weeks

Anyone reckon Mitch Brown could be in trouble for his "dangerous tackle" in the first quarter? Was a free kick and looked as though Duryea's head made contact with the ground.

I said this today, we basically had to yell at each other during the breaks just to have a chat! Way too loud and the kids hate it as well. Half of the reason I lose my voice after going to the footy, you should be able to have a discussion without having to scream.

Hawthorn's pressure was immense, they'd set themselves for a real crack today. It wasn't sustainable though with their young guys tiring by the last which is when we ran all over them. We had no run off half back, it was all static and when we did play on they were right up in our face. We wrestled back control over quarters 2 and 3 and blitzed them in the last.

Jones isn't getting dropped

Biggest sooks I've had the pleasure of sitting amongst for some time. Would've had 120 free kicks if their supporters were umpiring today CARNA DEMONS!!! Great to put the foot down in the last and make it a resounding win when the Hawks players tired. They couldn't sustain the flood all game and the dam finally broke.

Yep ;)

This is just pessimistic rubbish. We monstered teams in 2018, triple figure wins against the Crows and Blues as well as drubbings of the Dogs and others. Last year we belted Hawks and Pies in shorter games. Even in the Bailey years we racked up significant victories. I'm waiting with baited breath for today's game just like every other Melbourne supporter but to say we can't put teams away is plain wrong. Kick straight in our games this year and we would've won all of them by 40+.
