Any Melbourne supporters out there?

Postby McAlmanac » Mon Jul 23, 2007 12:30 am

I went to Kangaroos v Melbourne today. Admittedly a dodgy timeslot (5.10 Sunday, although I actually quite like it), but the crowd of only 20,000 was predominantly blue and white. Melbourne's support has dropped off alarmingly - is there a more fair weather set of supporters in the League? Mind you, there was a record snow dump recently.

I was going to ask same question a few week s ago. I have never met a Melbourne supporter in Adelaide, at work we have at least a supporter from every team to rub it in after a win. Is there a Melbourne supporter on safooty? Please show yourself!! :D

I know of another teams supporters that refuse to cross town to see their team play an away game for some unknown reason and they have a lot more members than Melbourne ever will 8)
