So this is now our second-highest tally ever. It really needs to be curving up every single year though. Hopefully we can finish the season strongly, have another excellent off-season and crack 40,000 next season. I can't just keep having children to boost membership figures.

I'm going to big note myself here. BUT I lay claim to having the youngest ever Demons member in our family. In the history of the club. The club kind of confirmed it too. For many years, I've been

Signed up two members today. One new. One a renewal. Both sons of mates. Parents will find out within the week. One mate a Crows supporter. The other follows Carlton. Hoping the kids will thank me on

I know my wife will have me in the dog kennel for this - but I'm about to sign up my son who is 18 days old!

All things being equal we really should break through 40k next year and set the base to work towards 50k by 2016/17 which if sustainable will go a long way to consolidate our position off-field.

Re Jesse - agree stay low key about him - just ease him into footy and see how things go from there.

Bit puzzled about James Frawley being in the promotion given the uncertainty re his future - or does the Club think that may play a small part in swaying him to stay - [censored] his conscience??? But I think he is already going.

Anyway membership numbers for next year are the top priority at the minute - hopefully the team can snag the odd win to keep young Demons fans interested - imperative - they are the Club's future supporter base.

Top brain fade by Vickery last nite - good one Tyrone.

Aussie Rules is crap in the wet like last night - better watching the Storm smash the Broncos.

I wonder if I can claim my Membership as a charitable donation. I'm contributing to those less fortunate then others and they're definitely not a profitable organisation...

Been my contention for years !! ATO probably won't see it that way :(

don't need to argue whether the mfc is a not for profit org, i understand it actually is

you would need to convince the tax commissioner that your membership fees were in fact a donation in that you don't receive anything of value in return

now would that be hard?

haha, bitter but orgasmic

tell me, will you be defending your mr romsey hayseed of the year 2014 title next year?

No. Now that I my gym work is starting to pay dividends ( I have lost 750gm) and I am showing some delightful muscle definition, I think a body building title is not out of the question.

I prefer to keep things in my own hands at the moment Biff. Your tawdry supplements are for lesser men than me.

    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,
