Yeah I will be renewing maybe even upgrading.. I swore to be a member for the rest of my life after my grandad passed away, he was a 50 year member..

That's a very nice sentiment PH.

Paying for the MFC membership is like owning a couple of 1970's Ford V8's, throwing good money after bad!

I will be throwing my money away again and so will the other 4 members of my family.

I am the only MFC supporter I know in a territory full of Beagles and Shocker supporters.

There always needs to be someone prepared to enlighten the uneducated and ill-informed masses.

So I will be renewing next year and may get the wife a membership for Xmas as a special treat LOL

If no one hears from me on Demonland after Xmas it may be because the wife did not like her present.

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.

.... the way I see it at the moment is the AFL have the ability to have great persuasion on clubs, & on coaches...

atmo, there are I think a number of clubs looking for coaches, although it seems essengate seems to have freed themselves from this scenario.

I think the AFL are more likely to ease off somewhat, if the numbers just automatically return to our club to soon... it may hurt us re PP, potential coach, & the amount of financial assistance etc.

I think there is a lot to be said to not renew until after Xmas, early 2014... let the AFL sweat on our behalf a little bit, & let them reach out a bit further.... they know they've hurt our beloved game, & they need to understand to not take the punters for granted.

No, I think individuals delaying things now, will payoff in our future.

# As far as watching the garbage, I've gone from watching nearly all free to air games 10 years ago, to virtually nil over the last 8 years. only our games, do I sort of watch, but often I just delete them after 15 minutes of watching.

I've heard & I know of many who just don't bother anymore, not liking the AFL style these days.

its not the bigger games thats the problem, its the lower clubs congestion... & it is this, that the rules need to be sorted out for.

... the rotations lower the pleasure of simple watching & enjoyment, making viewing the game too much hard work... it's as hard a work, as it is for the players to run it out... this removes the fun & laughter from the viewing & replaces it with a very big mental effort of over-analysing the game & stats whilst viewing... this isn't relaxation, its torment.

I paid the MCC/MFC (Premium) subscription for next year this morning.

After such a loathesome 2012/13 the club really doesn't deserve anything, but the previous regime has been booted out never to return & i want to support PJ who is a real operator.

I am still a member of the MFC.

I'm in. Rusted on..but please..give us something !!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
