  1. Couldn’t help myself, had to make it to the grand final. Good times can’t be taken for granted I guess, as a St Kilda supporter, you take chances when they come. Anyway, I’ve warmed up at the hotel tonight with some schooners, tomorrow, is anyone heading anywhere in particular? We are in doesn’tbloodyparramatta, if there is another group of people heading somewhere in Parramatta let us know. Beers around City supporters sounds better than beers in the hotel bistro, so let me know 

  2. At this time, the media or the FFA wonder why crowds are not coming to games. Football is tribal and is not sanitary, taking this away removes something that is great about the game of football when comparing to other sports. As a theatre going supporter, I enjoy what Melburnians provide, I do and especially my kids love the atmosphere that is provided. Sad to hear this message.

  3. Sounds like a lot of people here are wanting Victory to win..??? I agree that they have a solid squad of players but so do we... if JVS starts demanding more from his players and stops accepting the rubbish that some players (willo, Weilart, Kisnorbo, and Hoffman,)have been dishing out we will be more than competitive... on paper our team should be top 4..

    keep in mind we are the only side to date, to play without and Aussie Marquee and International Marquee. all other teams have there marquee players playing and performing...

    all this talk that Victory are superior to us is Fucken Rubbish... just wait until their good fortune changes then will see!!! don't forget they received 3 own-goals in 2 weeks, a captain that should have been sent off last week. (if he did, Victory lose that game)and for the majority of the season both marquees have been playing.

    If we can get them all on the park we are a much better side you would think. Derby 3 should be interesting, let's hope we give it a good crack come Saturday. Be a nice Christmas present if we win.

  4. My understanding is that the stadium deal at AAMI is attractive. Given that it is the a fantastic stadium to watch football at AAMI, I wouldn't be rushing anywhere else.

    La Trobe is marketing itself as a sports university and I would rather see us play some games at a boutique stadium there long term, but to do that a lot of money would have to be pumped in from somewhere. I think the first step at La Trobe is to build better training facilities.

    As a club we need to differentiate ourselves from the others. Tribes are often born by locality, so because of this Epping would make sense given its proximity to La Trobe and the youth team already plays there. I'd like to see a push of Melbourne Heart's association with an area or region more....so maybe a marketing push to say that Melbourne Heart is the club for Melbourne's north or Melbourne's north and west.

    Another suggestion is to play a game in Geelong, Kardina Park is a good stadium with excellent facilities and transportation connections...it is a bit of a trip for some people though, but it is only 1 or 2 games a season.

    Regarding your side note, I just want the club to be successful and the best way of doing that is winning, so if a marquee helps us get there then that is a great idea. Alternatively if by us only having so much to spend on players, I want to see the most competitive roster we can buy. It's a bit like Garry Ablett and the Gold Coast Suns, Garry is a AFL marquee but his inclusion doesn't bring success without other good players around him. AFL is a bit different to football, but I'd like to see a well balanced list for next year.
