The club has asked Nineteen (Geoff Sowden) and Judee of Demonology to assemble a team to carry out a brief telephone campaign to help us get past the magic 30,000 members mark.

Volunteers are urgently required for Mondays & Wednesday evenings of 27 & 29 April and 4 & 6 May 2009. The campaign is only for the next fortnight and if you can help - even on one night - it would be greatly appreciated.

The venue is at the Melbourne Football Club offices in the Southern Stand, MCG from 6.00pm to 8.00 pm with parking available underneath.

PLEASE respond here (to stimulate others) & you can get to Geoff directly on 0425 832 522 or [email protected].

I'd love to do it. I've been looking for a way to help out the club like this, even if it is something small.

I'm working the nights of the 27th & 29th -- not sure about the 4th & the 6th though.

If I have either or both of these off work I'll definitely come down and do it.

Won't be able to let you know for a week though. Wish I could help more.

Count me in. I am actually working in a call center at present (get me outta there...) so would be more than happy to get out of the office early and help out the Dees.

Can i nominate Yze Magic? Because if he is anywhere near as persistent and as he is about his hate for Cameron Bruce he will probably sell hundreds of memberships!

How much would I be paid for this?

HaHa! That's Good. I am working night shift so i cannot help out, (would be honoured to work from the MFC offices) but would love to know the rubbing total.

Good luck to all.

Well, did we get to 30k?

Think you will just have to wait for the official announcement ... sorry hate to make an "unofficial statement" ;):rolleyes:

We had a great night ... huge thanks to all who joined up tonight. I really enjoyed myself.

Should mention it was an absolute positive buzz talking to fellow Melbourne members "asking them to join up"

Now dont forget the "Dob In a Demon" promotion ... plenty work still needs to be done.

YES YES YES YES we have done it !!!!!.... yeah wonderful exciting news..... well done and thanks to everyone :wub: :wub:

A milestone night as the club burst through the 30K mark at about 7.30pm.

(Hopefully its a one way trip.)

Thanks to tonight's attendees of Peter, Judith (No2), Sean, Bruce, Bill, Michael, Anna, Daniel & Geoff D.

The latter two worked away at the "Dob in a Demon" responses & were getting just over 10% immediate sign ups, plus many considering. Hard Yakka. Good results.

Alias Ken Albiston signed up a family that had knocked back a Michael Newton call from the recent players ring around. They'd slipped through MN's hands, but were not quick enough for our Kenny.

This was at 7.30pm & is formally accredited with breaking the 30 banner.

Irish Michael got the BOG for the night, but they kept saying "Sure Jimmeeee" as they signed up.

Ten more irish accents on phones & we could have a go at the big 40!!!

50% of volunteers are first timers, & a special thanks to them.

Next week is the last week.

Can you assist?

Fantastic, well done to all, go Demons!

Now, let's push on to 31,000. My predicted total of 31,484 is still looking good. :rolleyes:

Oh the irony! :D

Great job everyone and a brilliant result to get to 30,000 well before the cut-off date.

I actually just phoned 3AW to try and put out a challenge to Neil Mitchell ... I read his comments in the newspaper re Colin Sylvia.

IMHO .. if he wants to have a go it one of our boys maybe he should try it himself. I did it for the first time last night and its not easy ... but it is great fun.

Neils a Melbourne supporter ... so I'm I. Lets both do our bit to get this club back to where we should be.

So Neil ... if your prepared to give it a go ... I'm prepared to do it again. You pick your night ... Monday or Wednesday I dont mind.

Maybe we can have a bottle of Scotch on who can get the most sign-ups.

Lets just hope they phone me back.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
