Membership Growing

I must admit I have been a bit blah about the start of the season but today I have started to get a little excited again.

I really hope we can get 35k members this year and show some improvement on the field so that we can all be hanging for a big 2010 season where we hit the 8 again looking to a cup in the seasons after!

Me too. I think we will see an improvement. In all honesty we need it. 2008 was the lowest I've seen the club since 1997. (Special mention to 2003).

I think I predicted a final tally of 31,484 by the cut-off in June, back in September/October of last year. Pretty sure it was that number - it could have been 31,848........, I can't seem to find it yet in the archives of the forum here at Demonland. But I will, if someone doesn't find it before me.

I'd love for it to be 35,000 plus but I think that figure will be out of reach for the club this year - hope I'm wrong.

Unless you add peoples' pets like the Hawks did.

If we win the first two games - you can look to the stratosphere - 32,500 for sure.

Good man Devoted Dee.

Far out, this club is UNRECOGNISABLE to the MFC of 2-3+ years ago... and I LOVE it!

Go Dees

We've become a self of our former shadow!

 

I signed up my dad today to a reserved seat. I reckon if I'm lucky he'll go to 1 game this year. But we can all try, can't we. If anyone thinks they can convince him to give up God and support the real thing, please let me know. Maybe something along the lines of "jack Watts is the real Messiah"?.?.?.?.?


I just wanted to mention that a thread over on 'Ology mentions that we have 25 000 members with 3 500 unsigned 2008 members.

But that doesn't compute because we had over 29 000 members last year and those numbers would have everyone signed up from last year leaving us under the 2008 number.

Maybe people bought multiple memberships last season after Jimmy took over, but I bloody hope not.

I really hope someone is really awful at maths at membership services...

I haven't done mine yet but I'll be out that way this week so you can add another one. Looking good so far. Very good.

Well we did ours a little while ago, and we also signed up my Essendon supporting brother and his Sydney supporting girlfriend......

Well done, may your membership buying never cease :D


If we have 25k before a ball is bounced and the sponsorship money as well, does that propel us up the endangered species list above the Kangaroos and Port? Jimmy and the boys really have pulled about a dozen rabbits out of the hat. Hope it continues

It would enhance our chances of being off the "endangered species list", but it would ensure we are far from the "extinction list" for now.

We budgeted for 30,000 members this year, so if we don't hit that mark we will lose money in that department. I would say at this stage we look almost certain to crack it, but not if we get flogged in the first round like last year. In terms of endangered species list i'd say we're on par with the Kangas and Port is ahead of both of us purely for the fact that they are an interstate club and the AFL would never let them fold.

Much of our financial success will rely on the team backing up on the good work that we've done off the field, and i don't necessarily mean winning, just not getting hammered! A big coup will be if we can pull of a win this week and then face the pies with some confidence the following week. Memberships and exposure would give us plenty to hear about.

I'll be getting my MCC/MFC membership at the game Sunday as well as my mate. So there will be 2 more members spending their weekends in the Frank Grey Smith Bar watching the Redlegs with a few schooners (well one a quarter).

Gees i love footy season!

Loved the fact that i'm supporting my club and whoever came up with that MCC/MFC crossover should be applauded.

must agree with the Ox.....

a great concept and for $150 a year - am able to drink beer from a glass while watching the mighty dees tear up the G!!!

exciting times at the demons!!


What's this crossover you fellas are talking about?

It sounds from Rampaging Demon's post that non-MCC members are able to access members-only areas of the MCC Reserve.

Is this the case?

Is that the ~40$ non match day membership combined with the 11 home game membership?

Ed: Ah, figures confused me.

It's the $50 MFC / MCC membership.

If you are a member of the MCC you can have the option of purchasing a $50 package which is officially an MFC membership as well or a regular $130 ish membership.

I have gone the $50 option as money is a big tighter this year but it still shows support for the club.

Plus i love the Grey Smith Bar!

 
We budgeted for 30,000 members this year, so if we don't hit that mark we will lose money in that department.

It will depend upon the actual mix of member types against what was budgeted and not just the overall membership numbers.

Thanks Ox05, I've got the MFC/MCC membership package as well - and I share your love of the FGS bar!

But my question was really in relation to Rampaging Demon's comment:

a great concept and for $150 a year - am able to drink beer from a glass while watching the mighty dees tear up the G!!!

I don't know what he's getting at, but to me it reads as though he believes the $150 MFC/MCC membership gives the bearer entry to the MCC Reserve, without an MCC membership.

I'd hate for a bloke to be disappointed!

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
