Great to hear that people are jumping on board early. It's never good to be doing those last-minute desperation campaigns to pull us over our target.

Hopefully we can make it to 30,000 this year.

    I think we can achieve 32,000 this coming season.

    And unlike North, 25% of those members won't be dogs, cats and sympathetic cheque books.

    I can't see the issue with cat + dogs as it is all money to the club. Below is one of our 2 newist members from last week!!!!!

    It's not hopefully, we need to get to 30,000. That what the club has apparently budgeted for. We we can definately do it, those who are on the fence need to get on board, because if they are waiting for the team to become strong before signing up then we may not be around for long enough!

    Well done to all those in the membership department.

    Unborn children probably make up our highest percentage of junior membership, because at that stage of their life they really don't know any better and have little choice but to be a Melbourne member :lol:

    Personally I think will nudge 40,000 members this year. Yes, some of those will be sympathisers, but that's fine, one in all in I say. After that we'll hopefully start to sell memberships on our performances.

    Absolutely Roost!

    Though we'll need it to cover the cost of Bennel

    :lol: nice

    I think we'll get over 35K at least, judging by the supporters I've spoken to who are usually apathetic but have now been prompted to sign up by our plight.

    That would be closer to impossible than a miracle. Wouldn't it be great though. It would make it hard for the AFL to ignore us.

    North have got 40k plus members and the AFL takes them only a little more seriously than MFC.

    I hope when MFC gets 40+k members I hope it is sustainable and not a one off like North.

    I wonder where they're at with their numbers.

    Checking their website now, very odd that it's still "kangaroos.com.au." I'd have thought they'd change that.

    North got 34,000 members last year, not 40k<.

    And many of them were sympathy members. North did well to get from 21,000 members to 34,000 members in a season, the true test is if they can sustain it.

    Past 13,000 when i rung the club this morning

    Great effort so far. There should be a huge advertisement in THE AGE every day or weekend!

    Great Idea and have it so it changes like the membership level on the MFC website. Make the new members feel like they are making a daily/weekly difference.

    building momentum towards 2009

    I have signed my whole family of 6 on this year.

    It's just life. Slow down, walk out side(preferably not on a bust street),smile and just suck it in.

    Don't forget to breathe out at the end

    Ditto. Not 6 though. 5. :)

    According to their website, North are sitting on 2,800.

    Combine a poor 2008 finish and the loss of sympathisers and I doubt they'll crack 30,000 next year.

    I signed myself up last week. Dad's going to take some convincing though..

    and signed my rabbit up for his third consecutive year. He's pumped!

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
