Hi,

does anyone if the club makes much more out of merchandise sold at the demon shop in the MCG compared to merchandise sold at other outlets

I am feeling all warm and fuzzy after hearing about last nights dinner and want to load up on new demons gear

My understanding is that in terms of actual merchandising revenue, they don't get any more as merchandising is controlled by the AFL, but the profit margins go in to the club's coffers (rather than in to the coffers of K-mart or whoever else).

I could be wrong about the specifics of how that works, but either way, buying merchandise from the MCG shop is definitely better for the club than buying it from anywhere else.

Buy it from the MELBOURNEfc shop.

Thats supporting the club I believe. Its easy to access and has some real good specials at the moment. Merchandise featuring this seasons logo is really cheap. I think the current match jerseys are only $60. Compared to the normal $110.

Buy from the Shop. Always.

A must-get is the DVD It's A Grand Old Flag - it has all the video clips plus hero interviews from the 150 Heroes Dinner and is outstanding viewing. It's a sensational packaged history of the club that contains some very rare footage of our most famous moments - the segments on Robbie Flower and Ron Barassi are outstanding. You can also get the book The Red Fox from the shop - it's a brilliant book on our club's, and the game's, greatest coach.

Buy a set for yourself and don't forget Father's Day is next month.

Does this include the online shop on melbournefc.com.au, or do you have to actually go in store?

I want to buy up too.

The online shop is the same. Every cent you spend at the online or actual megastore helps.

There's also an e-mail address: [email protected]

The It's A Grand Old Flag DVD is priced at $30 and runs for 80 mins.

80$

there is a few jerseys(clash) signed by the leadership group and dean bailey for the same price too...

get down there an buy the clash jersey as only a few will exist soon ;)

the 150 years book is not a bad read either...

Any thoughts people have on whether they'd get there more often if there was a Demons outlet in the city?

Do you think less full-on supporters might be more inclined to drop in?

It's a bit of a hike a the moment, I think.

I will join in with your bring back the beanie campaign rusty... in fact I bought a beanie a couple of weeks ago from the Vic Markets, complete with red pom pom. If I make it to friday night's game I will be wearing it for sure.

:D

...and many people may not even know it's there.

That's what I mean - I went there with my girlfriend to get some stuff in the end of year sale, when I came down for round 22 last year. Long story short, at first she thought it was some kind of joke when we struck off from Richmond station to nowhere in particular, then she was starting to think I was taking her to a dark alley to strangle her by the time we got down to the street-level underbelly of the 'G.

I'd been there before a number of times, but even I was starting to feel like I was somewhere I shouldn't be by the time we passed the loading dock with the garbage trucks.

And inside, totally silent, as anywhere would be under 1000 tons of concrete and steel.

I personally hate that it's stuck under there. Can you tell?

When i was really little, i remember it being in a little House in Jolimont (to the best of my memory)

Anyone else remember this?

We should've tried to get a spot inside the new stadium inside the ground. If we opened it there on game day, especially if it was near the MCC area, we'd get a much better response to it.

Yes I remember, dad going in there.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
