What a pisser - c'mon demons members, this is funny and God knows we need a laugh right now!

Family membership here (2 Adults + 2 Kids) Love the Dee's no matter what! Though I'm 44 and would like to see a premiership before I die!

Melbourne is the capital of Victoria. Victoria is where Footy was invented. The Melbourne Football Club is the oldest registered Football Club in the world. There will ALWAYS be a Melbourne Football Club. Saying that, I don't for one minute think that the Melbourne Football Club is not in fear of merging with another club! - Melbourne Kangaroos??????? - Melbourne Hawks??????? - Melbourne Tigers???????? - Melbourne Bombers?????? - Melbourne Saints??????? - Melbourne Cats???????? - Melbourne Blues???????? - Melbourne Bulldogs??????? - Melbourne Mag - [censored]! I would rather the club fold than be his one! Geez, I hope none of these ever happens. Moose

I took the family (wife & 2 daughters) to the family day and we had a ball. Yes, I agree with some of the comments about the fact it could have been bigger and a bit more professional due to the 150th year but we all had a great time. But it was a down to earth family fun day. Credit where it's due - ALL the players were brilliant and so obliging. Nothing was too much for them and they signed everything and posed for photo's when asked. Neitz & Robbo in particular were the most sort after and boy did they look after the supporters. Neeta in particular sat there for hours and signed everything. We came away from the day (our first one of these) VERY impressed. My gripe was the amount of leeches (IE - the sports memorbilia sellers) who took advantage of the day and brought along collectables for players to sign and then to no doubt sell on Ebay etc. There were 8 'professionals' (for want of a better term) in front of me lined up for Ronald Dales signature with dozens of things for him to sign (EG. Old style boots, old photos, No. 31 jumper numbers etc) which the great man signed. These leeches were no doubt going to sell these at HUGE profits and not 1 dollar was to go to Ron or the club. I heard them talking about the other club days that were coming up and the stuff they had for signing there. Not one of them was a Melbourne supporter or Member (From the lack of teeth in their mouths they were obviously Collingfilth of Caaaaaarlton parasites). Something really needed to be done to stop them from this blatant profiteering and holding up the queues. Other than that we had a great time. Mr Moose - Proud Melbourne Member
