The suggestion of giving free memberships is a valid one for a number of reasons and has been debated for a few years.

1: We already get money from the MCC and with the recent announcements more benefits will follow, I'm sure somewhere in that $1m they can say 10% covers MMC members, membership of the footy club or by some other internal mechanism.

2: They are MFC supports and already attending games, through the MCC.

3: Giving us 40/50k+ registered members gives us a huge appeal to sponsors. ie more customers to reach directly with their sponsorship.

If you worried about hiding our true figures, I think the AFL rules requires the publishing of the different categories of members such as non-game day members at Richmond. We simply add a MCC members section.

4: It gets the MCC members more directly involved in the footy club, with updates, newsletters and correspondence going directly to them. This has flow on affects to building more support, socially and financially.

no one should get free memberships, thats crap, iv got 4 kids and manage to scrape my money togother every season for my ticket,why should a MCC member get theres for free, thats the worst post iv ever read on demonland.

I am an MCC Member & i think free Memberships to MCC Members to the Football club is the worst decision that could be made. A supporter is free, a member of a club should always pay their way to make the club stronger. Sure The MCC Member may have a reduced Rate but should still be very Financial.

I was onto the club today about my son's junior membership (he has received 3 membership packs now!!) and asked the staff member how memberships were getting on. She replied that they are still going well with 500 joining on the North Melbourne match day and a steady stream each day. Come on all of you who haven't joined yet, let's keep the pressure on!!

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
