    Rename the Olympic Stand

    Barrasi played for the MFC which is a sporting section of the MCC. It is not a tenant club like Collingwood or Hawthorn, it has a shared history with the MCC, which makes this a pretty redundant argument

    Autopsy AFL 2023 First Qualifying Final - Pies v Demons Thurs Sept 7th 7:20pm EST (MCG)

    Original material. I'd be surprised if Collingwood supporters are responsible for selling papers. You need to be able to read.

    Autopsy AFL 2023 First Qualifying Final - Pies v Demons Thurs Sept 7th 7:20pm EST (MCG)

    Selling out a 42,000 seat stadium - whoopdee dooo. Melbourne’s Ave home attendance is 49K, yours is 32. Based on our Ave we’d be selling out the Gabba weekly. Complete Nuffie reply. Ignoring key stats to suit a misguided narrative.

    Autopsy AFL 2023 First Qualifying Final - Pies v Demons Thurs Sept 7th 7:20pm EST (MCG)

    Nah, he was just responding to jibes from the knucklehead Jono Brown who was saying it was up to Dees supporters to turn up, perpetuating a long-held stereotype like you have...The game is a sell out. MFC Members - sold out. MCC Sold Out! So far off the mark Brown. Tell me, where do Melbourne...

    Portfolio AFL Redesign (ideal jumpers)

    As a Melbourne fan, I can honestly say that MFC design is absolutely cooked. The Yolk is off and the monogram is in a strange spot. Like some of the other designs, but the MFC one is a big NO

    Prediction 2023 Ladder Prediction Thread

    Hahahah. The same dire forward line that allowed the Dees to finish 2nd at the end of the home and away and will be tinkered with over the off-season to ensure more connection.

    Prediction 2023 Ladder Prediction Thread

    A lot of people predicted the same for Melbourne after 2021. Often young players are the ones he plateau and feel content with what they’ve achieved early in a career. So, it’s interesting that you see this as something that’ll make Geelong stronger.

    Best grand final of the modern era (since 1999)

    By your logic, the 2021 Melbourne one must be up there too. Finished top of the ladder, average winning margins of 10+ goals across all finals, and a 70+ point win on a neutral deck.

    AFL Grand Final start time - Afternoon, twilight or night

    I’m a twilight convert. I think a 4:10pm bounce would actually be ideal. Still allows people to get together at lunchtime and have a BBQ and then the game finishes around 7pm. I am staunchly against the night Grand Final. The 2021 game confirmed tht for me. Whilst I loved the game itself, a...

    Nostradamus Lives Harley Bennell Covid Breach

    So you are suggesting that he started having a beer on the Sunshine Coast and then travelled 2 and a half hours to the Gold Coast to continue the party? Seems like BS

    The AXE vs Adelaide - IN: Bennell, Tomlinson, AVB, ANB. OUT: Hannan, TMac, OMac, Pickett.

    Has anyone got any more news on Bennell? It’s been mentioned that his Instagram shows he is back with him family? Has he left the hub? Or has his family joined him in QLD? I would think he would be in line for selection this week...

    Jumper clash fails

    Green and Yellow you reckon? You must be blind. Its fluro yellow, which is about what Richmond's sash is now and dark grey, one shade lighter than black. It is completely illogical. Here's an idea, how about the umpires wear all white...so there is no similarity whatsoever...Or purple or light...

    Izak Rankine

    He should have been pinged for holding the ball when he took Langdon, as he ducked his head and the Clayton Oliver free kick against was completely baffling....in fact...it was a disgrace. The commentators agreed. So maybe the umpires were sucked in by the hype. His over- confidence will be his...

    News Melbourne to wear 160th anniversary jumper in Rd 23

    Why would we have any reason to lie about our foundation year? It was published in a newspaper in 1858 the calling for a foot-ball team. There is evidence that a game was played intra-club in that year and between Melbourne and South Yarra takes place in Yarra Park on September 25, 1858. The...

    Discussion Footy Jumpers Buy Swap Sell – new rules in OP

    I know this is going to be a massive longshot, but I am desperately seeking a 1987-1989 Melbourne Football Club Adidas warm-up jacket that were player and club official issued only. I thought I would jump on here in case anyone could help me add to my collection. Please PM me if you have any leads.

    Which explains why we werent allowed to wear a red jumper except once this year. AFL deem red to clash with dark colours, go figure, maybe why the Doggies ditched theirs too

    News New Jumpers for 2016

    Agree with that, but its a bit like the argument about Sydney in the 90's until recently with the home jumper always being worn with red shirts, whether playing home or away...because the jumper was predominantly white the AFL deemed it ok to only wear 'dark' red shorts. Melbourne should be ok...

    Not sure anyone has posted it yet. New Away jumper looks like this. New monogram, thats about it. looks better with blue shorts but the AFL does not allow dark shorts to be worn with this jumper. Absurd..Sydney have been getting away with red shorts for 30 years

    News New Jumpers for 2015

    Yep, no doubt. Which is why I was pointing out that it's hardly a soccerish thing as was suggested. It's only a soccerish thing if we start calling them soccerish names like Anthem Jackets, it's simply a warm up jacket.

    News New Jumpers for 2015

    As shown in the photo on the last page, AFL sides have long worn track jackets in warm ups, in the 1990's it was particularly popular for all teams to run out in a track jacket. These days only some players, usually those on the bench wear them, but I don't know why there is a distinction...

    So an "anthem jacket" is a name you have made up for a "warm-up" jacket? They have long been worn by afl teams, not sure what the big deal is. I have never heard of an "anthem jacket".
