  1. The MFC is a sporting section of the MCC so it is one and the same.
  2. Yeah I was more referring to those flopping in marking contests and throwing themselves back when feeling a tackle trying to milk a free
  3. Yep Mitchell initiated the contact, Oliver was just standing there. What about the Hawks players diving forward in marking contests as if they'd been shoved in the back? Or flying over our players as if on ice so as to make out their legs were taken from under them? Or diving headfirst into our tackles so they could get a free for high contact? What about the fact Oliver gets scragged at every single stoppage so has to compete for the ball with one arm half the time? Why is there no media coverage on that?
  4. He braces and bumps back and they keep niggling and getting stuck into him off the ball all game. He lets the bump knock him to the ground and he gets a free and they stop harassing him and he can play footy
  5. Agreed, Hawks players were flopping and diving all over the place on Friday, I guess the difference was Oliver got a free for the most part the Hawks flopping was ignored. Except Rougheads who lead with his head and acted as though he'd been kinghit before the goal in the last quarter
  6. It was actually August 31, but yes too late now
  7. Email the club and ask for the info [email protected]
  8. Giving out barcodes to people who never post on this site will just see your tickets up on eBay within minutes for ten times the price.
  9. Yeah you're probably right, I guess it depends on which order they release the bays in. You'd assume priority 1 get ground/2nd level first and once that's exhausted they move to the upper levels. When we got seats to the GF in 2000 we were up the top of the old Ponsford Stand. No idea what the allocation was like then though, my dad organised all that as was still a teenager.
  10. As far as stereotypes go, it could be worse. I never understood why being well off is meant to be a negative? I guess you need to be a Richmond or Collingwood supporter to understand.
  11. Sorry I'm a bit slow, what does this mean?
  12. From what I can gather it could be anywhere. They just allocate the tickets based on what section you want or "best available". You might get lucky and be level 1 on the flank/pocket or you may get shunted up the top of level 4 somewhere.
  13. No what it means is if you put in 6 tickets in the ballot and someone ends up saying "I can't afford it/can't go" bad luck! You either buy all 6 or you get nothing.
  14. Next time you see him, give him a punch in the nads from the people of Victoria
  15. Club members AFL members with full/Gold membership will be guaranteed a ticket if their club of support makes it. AFL Members with Silver membership (still on the waitlist for full) are unlikely to get a ticket. They can go in the club ballot though as their AFL membership also counts as a club membership for their club of support however it will not be the same barcode, you'll need to find your club barcode from recent club emails.
  16. Who is willing to fork out some money to buy up our seat allocation in Perth even if we don't go? The noise of affirmation may be less affirmative if there's only 30k of them there and the stadium is half empty
  17. How times have changed in the last few weeks. Stuff em bring em all on! I want another crack at the Tiggers
  18. Too right OD I've been waiting my whole life to see a Melbourne side "play like Demons" in Checkers immortal words. Not only that but seeing a midfield with the talent and guts of Oliver, Brayshaw, Viney and Gawn is something I thought I'd never see.
  19. It's so dumb not least of which is because they have players running around for their team who would take offence themselves. Have they already forgotten Cyril? When I was about 15/16 a Saints supporter was making similar comments about Farmer I gave him a serve and reminded him about a guy called Nicky Winmar he went pretty quiet after that.
  20. Not to mention Rougheads Selwood impersonation in the last - goal.
  21. If we get our forward 50 entries right we will be close to unstoppable. Still the one thing that's holding us back from being an absolutely dominant side. We are still young though, the next few years will be bloody exciting. Still got Lever and Hogan on the sidelines too How good is Viney, the last 10 minutes of the 3rd quarter he just went full on Beast Mode. Reminded me of Marshawn Lynch circa 2014 for the NFL fans here just busting through tackles.
  22. OMFG What a mature performance. This team is building something special. How good was the "Melbourne" chant after the game? GO YOU MIGHT DEMONS!!!!!
  23. Any chance she pisses her pants on stage again?
