Your fighting the good fight Plague

Calling a spade a spade and not accepting mediocrity.

Keep it up

Actually looking forward to watching us play without Carney as we move into transfer time.

**** the FFA

The Jets wanted to wear the gold tomorrow but were not allowed to do so and will be wearing the blue shit

Exactly how the **** does the gold clash with Victree colours of navy white or their white and sky blue kit??


****ing joke of biblical proportions these ****s running our game and our club

So the fan vote for use of the gold kits is all rubbish? Up to the powers that be when we can actually use it.

Gold didn't clash when we hosted Victory in years gone by, why now?

Probably afraid of the unmitigated disaster that was Nix v Victory earlier this season

The cynic in me says that Melbourne are contracted to wear their white kit this week & therefore they will get their way. FFA are saying no to jets gold to avoid a TV clash like the nix game.

Take us as an example...we have different sponsors on our away kit. As gold is currrently our third kit we can't complain. If it does get voted in as our home kit that is a different situation.

We have the same sponsor of the blue kit as the gold.

I don't see why the away team can't just be made to wear their navy kit with their "away" sponsor on it.


**** me this is ridculous isn't it.

Anyone who takes kids to this with free tickets should be prosecuted for child abuse.

Torturing the innocent is uncalled for

If we are in the top 6 it says a lot about how shit the comp is.

No way in the world are we are play off side let alone a playoff contending side

Game Day ****s

Fire Up

We are undefeated this year

Lets see if our record lasts more than 3 days

whats the go with these free tickets? just tried to get on via membership website and select the special offer. Doesn't give me an option to add to cart. Thinking of just rocking up at the membership line to see what they say. Tried calling the membership line and they closed on game day. Typical..
