I love this .

With Jim urging the supporters to get on board and hopefully the players showing some dash with strong early wins to back him up anything is possible .

someone asked for a dollar value on what the difference between 33k and 40k members is, they were told about half a million bucks

oh and every MCC member through the gate is worth $13 if anyone is interested in that!

Cool that is good to know....it all helps.

I too am an MCC/MFC full member. $13 every time I go thru the gate. Based on those figures I would contribute around $250 to $300 myself a season to the MFC coffers.

Just to clarify, I took it to be that the $500K was in extra membership revenue.

I reckon the direct benefits of 40K members - extra membership revenue - is probably a pretty small part of the overall value of increasing membership to 40K.

At least we are not that St.kilda rabble!! I cannot believe what Nick Revolting said during their AGM. Blaming the public for the mess they are in. Pathetic.

Can't wait to play them, i will even venture to Colonial Stadiun for that one!! B)

What an amazing man, hopefully we won't let him down.

He is indeed... I would be calling for him to be "sainted", but unfortunately that now has rather bad connotations... maybe settle for a knighthood and a shrubbery?

My estimate for 2011 would have been between 35,000 to 37,000. However, if we get 40,000 because of Jim, then he truly is the Messiah.

My thoughts exactly , now Jimmy's called the supporters to arms I reakon we'll get it , if not very close . B)

I have often wondered about that in the past, cheers.

Out of interest, anyone know if this is the same for AFL memberships? Or an MFC membership for that matter?

Sweet.....I've got both MFC and MCC memberships and always swipe both when we are the home team. Good to know I haven't been wasting my time for the last 5 years.

Glad to know I wasn't the only one ;)

But that is not an invitation for MCC members to legitimately say they don't need to buy the $50 membership though...

Just saying...

Question: What can the MFC do, in the next month, to help achieve 40K members?

Answer: Win the NAB cup.

Jims announcement of the membership target implies that the MFC would be aspiring to progress as far as possible in the NAB cup. Wins = TV presence = promotion = more members.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
