MCC Dress code is straight forward and is intended to ensure that everybody is comfortable in what they are wearing to the same event. It maintains standards that suit people across all ages from the very young to the very old. The MCC is steeped in history and from the days where suit tie and bowler hat were the norm the rules have gradually changed evolved and relaxed without petition, so don't worry your precious little hearts, the rules will keep evolving.
For example they no longer apply for concerts and the like, common sense yeah?
Dress codes exist everywhere, from the casino to clubs and restaurants, to even people asking you to remove your shoes before you come in. Same shit different bucket....get over it.
If you think we are all elitist snobs in the MCC and don't wish to sit with us because you have to wear a polo (which is what some of you are saying) ....good ......piss off. I don't wish to sit next to protencious arty farty types who repeatedly question the moral fabric of society just for arguments sake and because they can. Chances are this is more about your own inferiority complex, as many members are niether well off or well to do such am i, but I'll do you a favour, pm me your addresses and ill mail you a frickin polo. |

I appreciate the kind offer, but it'd be a waste of postage and material I'd never wear it. It might make for good kindling, though!

^ There is a Hugo Boss outlet store just of Albert Road in Preston. 6 Albert Street or something.
Picked up a brilliant suit from there. Shame I don't have more time to wear it. |

This topic has taken a turn to the terrific.
Any of you guys know where a short fat guy can get a suit that looks half decent? |

If that's a serious offer, I may just take you up on that. I haven't worn a suit since my year 12 formal, so it may just come in handy...
When shall this expedition take place?

Took me over an hour and a half to drive home for there tonight $$%^%%$ traffic!
There is a great fruit and veggie shop around the corner and a wholesale butcher that sells the most incredible home made dim sims, 20 for $8
Didn't see the suit shop any lady's shops??

.....and all collingwood supporters are feral and have no teeth.
Could your comment be any more immature, ill informed and stereotypical?

LOL I have the same view as well
I think Joffa's stereotype of the MCC was a bit uncalled for. Sure some of them are a little bit up themselves and old-fashioned but most people in the MCC are decent people, and that's from experience of sitting in there for events in the past.
Personally I still prefer watching the footy in the Ponsford end though!!

There are many more pressing issues in the world or at the MCG or when being invited to the MCC members than having to wear a polo top or any other form of collar.
The intrusive PA at the "G", the adverts etc gets stuck in my craw (whatever a craw is)
If I go to the members I wear polo top most of the time, I also wear shorts most of the time. No one has ever stopped me. Them's the rules.
There are issues to be concerned about in the world, in the AFL & the MCG, in my opinion this is not one of them.

Gimme a couple of weeks, there's some place i n Norfland where you can pick up a suit for $99. They're not bad quality, I got one for work. I just have to mix and match the pants and jacket though, off the rack doesn't work well for me.

They serve some nice single malt in the Hugh trumble room. Are you a member? If not you can be my guest however I must warn you that you need to wear a shirt with a collar.
