Melbourne Football Club

[LaDoleCheckVida]

I think they are the next club under the chopping block. They have a dwindling supporter base of people who often would prefer to take out a MCC Membership rather than a club one, they don't have a home ground at all & train on a cricket oval in Fitzroy, they have little administrative strength at all.

I do hear they are looking at re-locating a training facility to the Casey area in outer Cranbourne. That looks to be the first pro-active thing the club has done in years.

I do hold grave fears for the mid to long term future of the Demons.

The Canberra Demons anyone?

They are heading down the same path as royboys from around 1995-96. So sad too see the oldest football club in the world dying a pain and slow death.

Melbourne are leading 3.0.18 to 0.1.1 13 minutes into the first quarter against Geelong.

The fun has stopped, Geelong has now levelled the scores 23 minutes in the first quarter, 3.3.21 to 3.3.21

[TheGrimReaper]

The game is over, Geelong is 25 points in front 6 minutes into the 2nd quarter. 7.5.47 to 3.4.22

30 point win to Geelong. A much better effort from the Demons, but a fairly ordinary performance from the Cats.

A lot of fumbling by both sides. I wonder if it was pretty windy down there.
