2014 Membership Renewal



Recommended Posts

I'm gonna wait as long as it takes to decide keeping the pressure on both the AFL to maximise their support to us, & on us, the Dees, as well, to get decisions right, including this "Premiership Coach".

dropping numbers at games & memberships has seen the AFL get involved to help, & to make sure necessary changes are made.

Am an MCC member but purchase Redleg membership as well each year. Will renew again next year.

Seems new CEO and president have told it the way it is. Happy that the AFL at this stage are looking over all our appointments as we have messed up for such a long a period of time. Despite all of this I always live in hope.

Have done that for 49 years

Little left for me

thick as 2 bricks...

some people can never see the causation of getting the AFL on-board to see things are put right, is initiated directly by people Not going to games,,, & not watching on TV,,, & not buying memberships, by way of personal protest.

...but you just go on doing the same old, & retrieving the same old until, yes, you are old... protests work when it hurts the other.

Now we've got their attention, lets see if they, the AFL have the will to see us get a topline coach??? time will tell all.

You post garbage 50 times a day on a Demons forum yet you wont buy a membership, your a tight ass and if everyone thought like you we wouldnt have a club, thank god your the minority.

I thought long and hard about it, because the last few years have been so disgraceful, none of us deserved that. The club has completely disrespected its long suffering supporter base.

But i wish to show support Peter Jackson.

NOW GET PAUL ROOS AS COACH.

Why you little - I need to make one thing clear I do not speak for the club. However, part of D2D's mandate is to bring the supporters and the club closer together. So we hear what you are saying, we 100% appreciate what you are saying.

If possible D2D would love to hear your positive feedback on how you think D2D could win your respect back, without trying to ask us to promise the impossible ie How many games MFC will win. or How the team will perform because that is out of our control. Sadly, nobody can promise coaches because that largely depends on what the individual wants to do.

Again part of our mandate is to give the club as much honest no watered-down feedback as possible. Please this is a genuine attempt to reach out and try and help you.

D2D there is only one way.

Win games That will fix the majority of our problems.

Now it is an easy thing to say and another thing to achieve.

Most Dees members / supporters are used to losing.

What we find hard to take is not being competitive.

For the last two years we have not been even competitive.

There is very little you can do about that problem.

The People who run the MFC have to get the team to a point over the next two years where we are competitive.

Until that happens and we start winning games you are wasting your time talking.

The MFC is now in the position where words mean zero.

Just buckle down for a long hard grind.

IMO you have a thankless job ahead and nothing you can say will change one thing with the average member.

Bloody sad but IMO true

There simply is only one way to regain my respect. That is WINNING ON THE GROUND.

Look at the Cats. They start winning. Everything else rolls.

I love the MFC but i am sick of it being a loser. Finding the easy option and not doing it right.

How 'bout we do the hard yards and learn?? Master the hard way like Smithy & Checker.

Times have changed. But application is no different.

Winning is the only way D2D. A beer is ok too :)

MFC membership is like taxes. You hate paying them but you don't really have a choice.

I reckon I get more for my taxes...just saying :unsure:

that really ought not even be a consideration !!

I can see your line of thought about this, therefore dont take it as a personal attack, as its your money Ralph, you have every right to invest ,spend, waste it on anything of your choosing. But the AFL wont be sweating on Mr dee-luded and Co holding them to ransom.

The AFL will be more intent on bailing out the MFC or any other club, IF it sees 60,000 fans at the G, and their team is under performing, if a team only gets 6.000 per game game, they wont be thinking if they help, the club members will re-sign. It will more likely see it as whats the point, we invest XX amount into this club,and dont get return for our investment.

As hard as it is to watch the garbage played week in week out, we still need members, or non members at games. bums on seats will keep us viable.

Any revenue the club gets, we hope, it uses it wisely to improve the club as a whole.IF we had 50,000 to 60,000 members paid up, we probably wouldnt need the AFL and its blackmail money.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    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
