Demonland helping to wipe off the debt

Guys

I thought I would start a new thread about this as I wanted to pat everyone on the back for the ideas with helping the club reduce the debt.

Through a few different people in the 'Getting rid of the $4.5 million dollar debt' thread (mainly 45hotgod and Cards13) I put the proposal for a 'dual MFC membership concept with the giving away the entry ticket to someone less fortunate' to the club as my company could have also assisted in helping the club.

Well I received an email from Fiona McMahon (MFC membership manager thanks Rogue) who said the board loved the idea and they will be trying to introduce it for next season. The AFL didn't want to use an external company but have stated that ticketmaster have the ability to do it with their software and the club is contracted to the AFL's members service who believe they can delivery the concept.

Although it is just the beginning and the club will be workshopping it over the next 3 montsh I thought a congrats to demonland as this maybe a great thing for the club....

p.s now we have to get on board :rolleyes:

    That's excellent.

    A shame they're not going with your implementation, though :)

    PS. Don't mention it.

    The hard part is getting ticketmaster to release the tickets once that happens I can't see membership services wanting to do the extra work so you never know I might still be able to help ;)

    Good to hear WM. Disappointing your concept at this moment can't be part of it but would be so stoked to see this implemented, it would be such a good way for us as a club and community to give something back. It would be good if we had game day ambassadors who could maybe give tours of the ground and some of our history to these groups (refugee groups) to make them really feel a part of it and hopefully go on to support the club.

    Now we need some more ideas around reducing the $$ debt, buying the extra memberships and using them to advantage is great but some other strategic ideas are still needed.

    I'm still really interested one idea that was raised around a pay for preseason camp experience. If it can be slotted into the preseason to fit with the coaching staffs approval, I think it could make some decent $$.

    Or

    The game day in the life experience, $$ to experience the game day of an AFL player. Sort of follow one of the boys around as they prepare for the game...

    Anything that allows the fans to get a closer experience of what they go through. I think they will be good earners

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
