So....for those of use who've purchased 2010 memberships, when do we receive them?

I did think MFC said early December but I was hoping someone here might know for sure.

I went for the $20 a month debit plan this time round. With the money I would have normally spent up front I bought a new jersey & a few sets of Christmas cards, there so corny that there awesome.

This plan also means you don't have to worry about renewing because when your initial 12 months is up it just automatically renews with the next months payment. A way better debit than my car insurance every month!

Just renewed the rest of the family and the dog and cat and was told that memberships should be started to be posted out in about a weeks time. Can't wait to drive around with my 2010 membership to show the world (of Melbourne).

Thanks very much. I'm looking forward to getting my membership kit and the members polo because, stuck here in Brisbane and engaged to a rabid Geelong supporter I need to show some MFC pride. Now, if I can only locate my old posters of Steve Smith, Gary Baker, Peter Giles and Peter Moore I'll be set, lol.

I would be very happy with 35,000.

Here is a small sample of some other clubs: -

Hawthorn are on 30,857.

North Melbourne are on 6,892.

Western Bulldogs are on 14,980.

Richmond are on 12,160.

St.Kilda are on 3,010.

Collingwood are 20,000 approx.

*Some might not have been updated for a little while.

Collingwood have passed us - dissapointing

Hawthorn 30,000 already, they must have sold their commodores.

Also, you have to remember that not all clubs count members in the same way. MFC sell an option for people who can't attend matches (for those of us overseas or interstate, etc) and it is counted towards our membership tally. Richmond sell a similar option but they don't include it in their tally. Some clubs count match-day only, others include every type of package. When Hawthorn play their 4 games in Tassie they sell a 'mini membership' which gives you entry to all 4 games. That gets counted towards their membership tally. Aurora Park in Tassie has 20,000 capacity. Sell out all 4 games and you can add a lazy 15,000 to your membership tally (5,000 may be set aside for the visiting team). Doesn't actually mean any of those people support Hawthorn, just that they wanted to see the games and it was the only way to ensure they got a seat.

Does anyone know how this compares to this time last year?

And I could be wrong, but wasn't our membership only some 20,000 a few years ago?

I know we had around 31,000 last year.

Thanks "HT", up around 17% on LY. If we maintain this (a big wish) we will make 36,000!

Purchased mine a couple weeks ago - making sure I kept my seats. Looking forward to my Gold Card. Also signed up my son who will be 9 years consecutive next season (he is 11). Before the season starts I will get memberships for my wife and daughter. I couldn't last year due to finances. They don't go to the games but I like to help the club out, and I am sure in a couple of years when we are doing well they wil decide to come to a few games. Happy for someone to hold me to it.
