Yep, it's good option in these times of 'last straw' declarations, many of which have been made on this forum recently. Best not to think about renewal, just assume that it's going to happen.

A soft, uninspiring slogan.

i disagree, i prefer it to "generation D" and other recent ones.

It also goes hand in hand with the incentives that they're putting up for peple who renew 'first' and people who roll over their memberships on the dedicated demons plan ' forever'.

I thought it was a good slogan and the Imagery on the site looks great.

No pleasing some people.

I agree, considering the season we have just had I think the club is pulling on the right strings here!! It affected me and I was like hell yeah I am signing up lol!!

I think that we don't make enough of the history of our club, so I'm all for this campaign. We are the oldest club and we are determined to not only stick around, but to grow and flourish.

A few have asked for some past players/coaches to be included on the banner. It would fit with this campaign as a theme for 2013.

Relying on mention of past glory to promote next year - fail in my opinion.

Is the fear of further failure keeping marketing low-key?

Edit: Of course I will re-sign next pay cycle. Nothing changes that.

I think we've come off about 4 consecutive years of playing up the "future" in our membership campaigns only to be shot in the foot so this sits OK with me.

And, yeh, I'll be re-signing too. It's amazing the hold footy can have on a person. Anything else which gave me so little joy over a 5 year period would have been banished from my life.

Personally, something along the lines of "Total Buy-In" would be relevant. You could have the players that have had "total buy-in" since Neeld's arrival, and now it's time for all Melbourne supporters to have "Total Buy-In" and get on board.

Something along those lines - I'm not a marketing expert, so perhaps someone that is could come up with a term that is more appealing to what I've written but means the same thing.

Last year I wanted "No More Excuses". Was shot down because it was Neeld's first year, so was happy to put it on hold for 12 months. I'm pretty sure if I made the suggestion of "No More Excuses" again, we'd come up with 101 reasons why we shouldn't have that this year, including the fact that we lost Jurrah, that we are the 3rd youngest team in terms of experience, that we're goin gin to the season with too many injuries, etc, etc, etc.

That's funny. Just wrote on the Neeld Lyon thread that our membership tagline should be:

BUY IN!

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    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
