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.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
