NON-MFC: Finals Week 01
Hogan is the player he should have always been, and it’s a great story.

You still play under 12’s? Aren’t the other kids a bit suspicious?

This is the key to a successful year in the modern era. Most teams can afford, and have set themselves up around, 3-4 really good players. If your B graders all have a great year at once you can rise quickly. But the reverse is also true.

What’s the story with Bont? Why have him sitting at half forward when they can’t win the ball?

Season 2024 Over for Clayton Oliver
Well in that case…. I’ve always loved you Clarrie. Don’t go anywhere. We’ve got your back.

I reckon if the state government built us our own Stadium at Casey, and then we only allowed 300 opposition supporters in we’d give that record a fair shake.

Except last year when they didn’t play finals?

NON-MFC: Finals Week 01
I’m very happy for any non Victorian team to win the flag, as it’ll feel like it didn’t really happen here, but… I’m super nervous about what that means for the fixture next year. AFL will be keen to recoup losses, so expect 2025 to see Collingwood and Carlton schedules for 12 games each against Richmond - to make sure they are both top 4 by season end.

Yes. Doesn’t change the fact I pay for something that has literally no value.

We are Demons Seats Plus Undercover in M55. I need the cover for my folks as they are older. Everyone in our area was so annoyed every game. We pay $580 a year, but we won’t again because we know that for the cost of a standard $200 or so membership we can rock up 90% of the time and sit wherever. The club is very aware of all of our frustration, and have done absolutely nothing about it - which I understand is difficult, but if they aren’t protecting the value of our spend they are the ones who’ll miss out next year.

This year I was a Reserved Seats member for the second season. It was a joke. 9 games I had to kick people out of our seats, and each week I was surrounded by different people, and quite often they were opposition supporters. I wrote to the club 3 times about it and they said they’d notify the MCG staff. It never got better. I saw so many people just wonder in and sit wherever they wanted. I realise to an extent it’s not the clubs fault, but if nobody is protecting the value of our memberships then it makes it next to impossible to justify paying for them. I know of 20 members in our section, and we all said we’d never pay for the reserved seats again. That seems like such a shame.

Farewell Alex Neal-Bullen
I’m sad about this. We lost a really good one.

Well at least we can agree on that.

I love Max. I’ve never appreciated him more than I do right now.

Caleb Daniel
I don’t mind it. Salem’s body struggles with the demands of modern footy. Daniels is a backup for that role if Christian keeps breaking down.

Kozzy Homesick & Wants to Leave?
If anyone from the club is reading this forum I’d like to formally put my hand up to be drafted. Admittedly I am 46, and have no left foot, but I can absolutely promise you I have no desire to move closer to my family. Ever.

Pick 25 for McAdam
Agree. He had no preseason, and then came into the side when we were playing some of our worst football of the last 5 years. Get him fit and confident, and get the ball to him, and it can all come together quickly.
