As we started life as the Melbourne Cricket Club Football Club (MCCFC) we should increase our MCC subs by $50 per annum and automatically include all MCC members in the MFC total. This would give us the largest football club membership in the Southern Hemisphere (in any code)!

The next 11 games will determine if we even get to 35 next year, if we only win one or two then we will struggle.

Six plus wins and things might look better next years tally.

And I believe that Gold members of the football club should be given a chance of becoming members of the cricket club to reward their loyalty.

C & B as a MCC member there is no need to pay for MFC membership.

I do and most of my MCC-MelbourneFC supporting mates do as well. One of my sons the Melbourne supporter does not. ( He is o/s this year) The Richmond supporter (who cares) does not pay for RFC membership.

I would be surprised if an extra couple of thousand MCC members could not be persuaded to become MCC/MFC members.

All of my colleagues probably more than 20 have both MCC and MFC full membership or above

Richmond have just reached 70000 members. Will we ever see that number at MFC?

get the lads signed up, bbo

i'll bet they have plenty of cousins too and you know what hird mentality can do

Nope.

I think if we start winning and playing finals we will get around 55k regularly. Not much higher.

when is the close-off date, or have we reached it?

Not sure myself but am coming over for the Essendon and Brisbane games and wouldn't mind sitting with family and friends in the members area.

Would I be better off purchasing a three game membership for the 2 games?

I only have an interstate membership at the moment.

interstate membership should get you admission to 5 home games in melbourne

no reserved seating but you could ask the club about this

Thanks mate, I'll look into it.

essendon game is an away game

don't expect a big crowd, bombers fans will stay away

can get general admission at gate for $25

check afl site for where ga tickets can sit (not optimal areas)

otherwise book online for ticket plus better seating

No - I think they will all be there with their "we stand by Hird" banners

maybe, but i doubt it. they stayed away in droves for the saints game last week

anyway, even with a reasonable turnout of bomber fans there will be no trouble getting ga tickets at the gate

i'll be buying a ga ticket

We should implement a new membership called the "sympathy" or "pity membership"

Many footy fans over here in the west don't mind us. I'm sure we could get a few to sign up.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
