Lyon addressed 170 supporters at a "150 Foundation Heroes" dinner, telling them that they were involved in the most important night in the Melbourne Football Club's history.
GARRY Lyon could not resist the symbolism of Collingwood's woes last night as he heralded the rebirth of his struggling club.

They will go bust very soon and its a crying shame that they will play this Friday to mark the 150th year. I know these were the first 2 teams to play a match but the thing is, they should just give this game to us because they owe us lol!!! _________________ PAUL MEDHURST'S #1 FAN

Hopefully Eddie reads Lyons garbage and does a North Melbourne on them and insists we have a home game on Queens Birthday for once.
That would shut that arsehole Lyons gobb up!!! _________________ Go Pies - I was there in 1977, 1979, 1990, 2003, 2010, 2011, 2018 |

with the north melbourne and now melbourne incident, I think colling wood should look after themselves not worry about the other teams in helping proping them up. Those teams are good to take a swipe at us when we are down if they think they can do it alone lets let them show us.
IF you are 5mil in debt who paid for the melbourne celebration last night are'nt you trading as insolvent. |

Relax everyone.
Gary Lyon had to give the Melbourne faithful something to cheer about / something to rouse them etc.
I don't for a second think that Lyon thinks Collingwood are gone.
I am sure he and Eddie are still friends / mutual respect etc.
It's just a bit of pantomime. |

Couldn't care less what melbourne or lyons think about Collingwood, what I do want is equity with regards to the Queens Birthday game.
My understanding is that every year this game is classed as a melbourne home game, which is unfair.
Irregardless of a clubs financial position (as ultimately clubs control their own destiny) this game should be split 50/50. One year melbourne get the home ground and the takings, the next year Collingwood and so on.
Neither club is overly advantaged or disadvataged. _________________ A Collingwood supporter since the egg was inseminated. |

They enjoy having a swipe at our club putting the boots in so to speak but a different story occurs when asking the AFL for favours involving home games against Collingwood .
Equally insulting was the North Melb article having a go at our predictament yesterday most probably given media clearance by the self proclaimed CEO of the century who once stated he stood with his brothers on one eyed hill.
Next year on Queens Birthday we'll make a bloody banner with a huge picture of a Black and White cash register with the words..THIEVES!! _________________ Football is Greatness

love it. without wanting to denigrate the good work done by the various charities, we could have a banner with the charities logos on it and have the melbournefc emblem in amongst it. a bit of free exposure for the charities too.
though, it'd probably end in uproar. _________________ Purveyor of sanctimonious twaddle. |

That pretty much sums up the whole AFL my friend.

I reckon we should suggest North and Melbourne should play the Queen's Birthday game!
We look good by sharing the blockbuster games with a needy club, and we get the joy of seeing the big day turn into a fizzle in front $25K supporters. Win/win! _________________ kill for collingwood! |
