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.

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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.
