Thanks for updating guys, they hadn't updated it for at least a week, so I forgot about it.

November 25, 2010: As previously posted, we've cracked 15k. Currently our tally is at 15,123, 811 more than this stage last year, where we were at 14,312. It's roughly a 6% increase.

Note to everyone, sign up by November 26 (wait, that's tomorrow) and you get a free 2011 MFC calendar, two changeroom passes an you go into the draw to win two tickets to our 2011 best and fairest.

I keep forgetting to remind my mum.

Just signed up my 7-month old nephew this morning.

His dad's a lion but mum's a demon so he'll probably end up with memberships at both clubs.

The battle for his heart and mind has begun :)

Tell his old man to Buy a Paddle Pop and move to Queensland. This is Melbourne Territory down here!!!!

I've come across many families in this predicament. If you live in Melbourne, then thankfully the little one will be growing up in what will probably be the Demons most successful era in many year.

He will be amongst many of todays young to jump onto the Demons wagon & form the nucleous of the futures membership army.

16,355

I was just about to say that.

November 29, 2010: We're really speeding along now. We're currently sitting at 16,355 members, ahead of (roughly) the same stage last year, where the tally was 15,609. These figures are from December 2, 2009, so they aren't spot on, but we're about 800 ahead, as we were on my last update.

20k by 2011's a good chance. We were on about 18,000 at the start of this year from memory, so if we all start signing up (I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in this), it's not out of the question.

Just upgraded my membership for 2011.

I have a 17 game membership, where do premium MFC members sit at the away games?

Wherever. I was a junior member this year so my 17 game membership got me into the MCC (my dad's a member, so we went to both the Collingwood matches and the second Hawthorn one), but I normally sat where the cheer squad is located, which, at an away game, is generally the Ponsford Stand.

thinking about getting a legends membership, although at 800+ it is quite steep. obviously it would be as a donation - im already a 17 game reserved seat member as well as MCC/MFC member. but i really cant think of a better way to spend some of my tax return. however, id certainly be looking at getting something of value out of this for myself... selfish i know.

does anyone have one of these memberships - and are they worth the coin?

Depends on whether you take up the 'extras' like pregame, after game, dinners, special events for VIPs etc.

If you like going to that stuff - find out what they are and make and judgement call.

If you live in Canberra just forget about it.

    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.
