Its good to be remembered, I was banned correctly for 3 months for using multiple tags. I was ,am still computer dumb, I had just moved home and had an EMAIL change. I thought my old tag wouldnt register with DEMONLAND so I invented a new one, my mistake. I am old school still as I dont even have a mobile phone and just use cash All I am saying is I got the tag wrong and I was rightly banned for 3 months. I still sit in the same seat but just greyer, so on to Saturday for a demon win.

Do we go to the footy or dont we. Is going or not going important? To me as I said last year, the biggest problem at the moment is the AFL looking to get games off the G for hawthorn home games when they exit Tas. Already we have one home game at soulless city. With the lack of supporters at the G the AFL dont look at reasons only numbers. That is why we should support the players with our attendance.

One thing touched on, injuries. We had a few, some major, but they were made worse by us having a short list, Missing two , Brayshaw and Smith with Spargo going down ten minutes into the first game. These had the effect of restricting our response to in season injuries.

This has been asked before, so I am sorry if I missed the reply. Where does a MFC reserved seat get you at docklands? Please dont say free on the top level.

What do we want out of 2024 at this late stage? Our season is cooked, so how do we get the best result from now for the MFC. Do we know if Fullerton can play at AFL level or do we just leave him at Casey until we delist him. Drop Gawn, in for medical, Bring in Jefferson for 2 matches after telling him this is what AFL is like and strive over preseason to get there Use the remaining 2 games as a positive for 2025, if in doubt play them. Whats the worst that can happen? Lose 2 dead games, have a look at players and possibly improve our draft position. It wont matter to the vast majority of our supporters, they wont go anyway, Petty will still be a forward, at night, cold, dark or just couldnt care. Let us see the possible future and enjoy the DEES at the G. For now!

The AFL dont care about a disaster for the MFC. There will be 19 teams soon, it would solve a few problems if one team fell out. I am sure interstate teams would cry if a Melbourne team went under. I am sure they would About 10 years ago we played GWS at docklands and drew about 8000 people, a complete money and look disaster, lost approx $120000. too many of those and we will be broke. If this happens we [ the supporters] can blame nobody but ourselves. As I wrote in an earlier post about possible moving of home games in favour of more for essendon and carlton at the G, I forget about the 4 games hawthorn will need to relocate in the ending of the Launceston games.

My information on the break even figure was a conversation with Cameron Schwab about 10 years ago. It was during a walk to the G on a queens birthday game. He said that different grounds have different break even figures. Waverly was 14000 G 20000 and docklands 30000. Now those figures have changed, no Waverly, lower at docklands now owned by AFL. But as I said above I am more worried by other teams wanting OUR ground.

As to the finances, we would have had to write a cheque to the MCC for not getting a break even crowd. Approx 20000 people, we pay or collect approx $10.00 for each above or below that figure. So in the last two home games we would have had to pay approx. $50000. Another point which I am much more afraid of both carlton and essendon want more games at the G. Which clubs attendance do you think lends itself to being moved to docklands, to enable more home games for the above teams?

If in the words of our coach, Fullerton couldnt win a ruck contest, WHY draft him? We could have kept a Harmes or Jordan on the list and been no worse off in the ruck as the bloke we drafted to be a back up for Max cant ruck A real simple question . why draft him, didnt we look at his previous games at bris. Also as I recall we gave him two years, for a ruckman who cant ruck.

How often have you heard the coach say ' our forward line is a work in progress. Dozens I bet. I think the airport rail link is closer to finish than our forward line. We worry so much about the forward line that its coach is a ruckman. Here is a left wing idea employ a forward line coach who was a forward. How about Jack Reiwolt. Just retired kicked many goals, in successful team. On thursday night sitting at the city end watching the forward line up close, the number of times with the ball approaching into our forward area, JVR and TMAC standing shoulder to shoulder next to each other. For gods sake split and offer multable options to the on coming ball carrier. Learn how to kick over the preseason at a 21 mtr wide target because simply we cant.

Thank you very much Daniel. Being in my 70s and not up to speed with high tech[ I dont even own a mobile phone]. I went into MFC my account and changed my password and BINGO up popped my barcodes . Next H&M season pop down to 52k2 and I will by you a beer. signed GREY HAIRED OLD BUGGER.

Daniel I have a physical card and there are 4 nos on the back, a number above the barcode, a member number higher on the card and 2 numbers one on the left and right of the barcode. Neither the barcode nor the member number is recognised by the MFC account .

I am a 35 year member and cat 1 ticket holder. No bar code has been sent, no email. Other people love this time of year but I hate it having to battle with this stupid computer system. It takes all the joy out of finals. Ticktet is the daniel andrews of the computer world. How do I get my barcode? I dont have an MFC account.

The problem isnt about connection between mids and forwards, get kingy in and he will throw dozens of stats at you Its all bum fluf. Our one problem is we cant hit a target 7.5 metres wide often enough. We are getting plenty of shots on goal, plenty. Alot of them set shots from good angles. Our scores show if we can hit that 7.5 mt target we will win most games. They are prof. footballers who canr kick. Thank god they arnt surgeons, dead everywhere.

Thanks Titan.
