As of now it is wins at all cost as we all no now.
But after every year we have rivalry round i watch games like essendon v hawks or carlton and collingwood and see the high intensity and physicality which are 2 main things that sets this great sport apart.

I would melbourne to start a bitter rivalry with a team personally i don't care who, maybe it could be a Melbourne V Sydney rivalry (based on the two city's). Though carlton would be the main team that stands out.

Im just saying i would to look at the fixture and say yes cant wait for that game i hope we kill em and not only us dees supporters be aware but the whole footy universe also this would attract members possibly to go the games.
 
you cant start rivalries, they just happen. the reason melbourne dont naturally have any strong rivalries is because they havent seen much sucess on this side of the last 46 years.

the more realisitic would be collingwood due to our 50's and 60's matches, but i guess we could start a rivalry with maybe a little league team (not ours).

Essendon. after what they did to Green & Simmonds in the 2000 GF, we owe them some youth on a stretcher
 
Collingwood was a pretty big rival after the success of the 50's and 60's, coupled with the strong social demographic differences of the supporter bases.

Sad to say that its faded slightly as the poor old Dees havnt had any flags since those days - but we still have the Queens birthday game and I always look forward to that.

I would expect in the next 4 or 5 years we could develop a rivalry with WCE or GC17 if we play some big games.

Watts shirtfronting Natanui unconcious at opening bounce of the 2014 grand final would be a good place to start :D
 
Bloody hell I hate political correctness. Look what it does to the kids. How was D16's comment at all racist?

Its ok CC - Im pretty sure he was joking. (as was I with my stupid joke - should I take that down or do people get it??). Obviously I chose Natanui due to his size and the constant comparisons between them.

Anyway Watts shirtfronting anyone unconcious would be satisfactory.

im not a PC freak, but you probably should take your joke down, always someone touchy that will freak out over something like that, not worth the drama on a public forum like this

I hope when Watts does get the size and finishes growing that he lives up to his nickname "killa" ;)

Edited to be a little less politically incorrect. I am of mixed race myself so I tend to be pretty easy going with that stuff.

Should have seen some of the things going on in the Bay when the AFL vs World Cup threads were up..
