Bump, building nicely. Make sure you start to renew, sign up or convince others to....

The club is wanting to have 40,000+ members when we are serious contenders

Not bad considering we had around 35.5k members in 2010 when we finished 12th!!

We'll get there... plus some.

Can you guys comment on the seating arrangements they offer for the 'Demon Seats', 'Redlegs' and 'Trident' memberships?

Living interstate for the past decade I've only had the chance to attend one home game (last year - vs Sydney) since all of the redevelopments took place at the 'G'. So I'm not really sure which of the seating positions are best of the ones on offer in those packages - Level 1 Great Southern Stand and Olympic Stand, Level 2A Great Southern Stand (Demon Seats), Level 2 Great Southern Stand (Redlegs and Trident), Level 2 Olympic Stand (Trident). Any help would be much appreciated; thanks.

hey all im currently an afl silver member with melbourne club support but lately i have been thinking about getting rid of it and getting a normal club membership what membership would everyone recommend, and has anyone swapped from afl membership to club and regretted it and can i buy guest passes on a club membership as sometimes my wife likes to come thats why i have afl membership, the reason im looking at swapping is to sit with more melbourne supporters there not many in afl members and i wanna be guaranteed a grand final ticket not a gold member and the wait is pretty long

hi wattsup an afl membership is great value for money as it doesn't restrict you to solely melbourne matches you can go to any match that is played in the season and that also includes nab cup games except for the final and also the cricket i think, however it is expensive and thats why many people opt just for the club membership and this is where i'd recommend redlegs membership perhaps and try and make sure you sit with fellow dees members too i hope that helped some other people may be able to assist.

Got rid of the AFL membership a couple of years ago. Along with a lot of MFC supporters. AFL contributes only the cost of an adult membership to the MFC, not the AFL membership fee.

Once the medallion club got guaranteed access to AFL seats at the GF, the AFL members lost that privelege.

Solution: off to the Tridents/Redlegs with all the other fanatics and a guarantee seat at the GF if Melbourne make it, and the full price of membership goes to the MFC.

Rather easy really.

What are the seats like in the Trident and Redlegs package? Redlegs has reserved seating on Level 2 of the Great Southern Stand while Trident has seating on either Level 2 of the Great Southern or Olympic Stand. Are they undercover and is one a better view ?

Its a joke Me and a mate are redleg members and another mate just got a 3 game membership. When my mate with the 3 game membership got his card he just showed the secuirty upstarirs and was allowed in with us near the Hassett room no question asked. After his 3 games ran out he would just by a general admission ticket at the gate then flash his card to security. To get upstairs with us. Im not complaining that my mate can get in but I think there a lot of people that are scamming the system and melbourne are loosing money on it.

I've got Trident and sit on level 2 of the Olypic, find it a great view, but it's not undercover, well, not totally protected from the elements. Facilities are good and the non playing players sit there as well.

I've sat level 2 of the Southern before and found it a little boxy, the view is great, but found when sitting up the back, if the ball goes through the goals high you can't always see it.

Love my trident seat and have the same ones for next year

It does depend on availability a bit IE people hang on to the good ones...check with the club as to what seats are available.

You can get wet in either stand depending on the seats, I think Sthn has more undercover (from memory only - again check with the club).

You get bird's-eye of the interchange in Olympic, but you don't have the social club, so will be fraternising with the opposition and at night games and drinking light beer.

My group (all tridents) gave the Olympic a go when it was re-done, but moved back to the southern. (Edit: Level 2)

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    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.
