Recommended Posts

An excellent start to our ‘Membership volunteer” program.

13 vols on Monday night produced 29 new members & $3337 in revenue, then

8 vols on Tuesday night produced 39 new members & $4539 in revenue.

Thanks to Geoff, Geoff, Pete, Pete, Julian, Cheryl, John, Steve, Graham, Trish, Catherine, Daniel & Tim on Monday night, and

John, Geoff, Geoff. Pete, Pete, Trish, Roslyn & Heather re Tuesday night.

Our big picture plan is to write somewhere near to 1000 members over the coming 3 months (fingers Xd),

recognising that this figure effectively doubles with inbound calls from our messages left.

Two volunteers are heading off to the “Med’ next month, so if u can rustle up any replacement Demons .... it will be appreciated.

A great start. Geoff [email protected]

Great work guys... I'm assuming one of the Pete's is Saty (TDI)?

I think you'd be right. I'm pretty sure 'longsuffering' is another d'lander who regularly volunteers.

It's a great initiative - not only does it save the club money, but fellow supporters can be a lot more persuasive when trying to get lapsed members to re-sign than generic telemarketers who know nothing of the MFC and its delights and agonies.

Just out of interest for those the decry the lack of a Membership presence at certain places, the majority of the staff in Membership are just about to hit their 14th straight day in work

I bet they take long lunch breaks and knock off early, the slackers.

So what you are saying is that the club is understaffed and/or poorly organised when it comes to membership?

That's not like you to be critical. Maybe someone's hacked your account.

I'd call the mods.

Please don't read anyone's opinion that the club can be insular and short sighted as a slight on 'nineteen' and anyone, including yourself, that gives their time for the club.

Selling memberships isn't work, it's a privilege and more of a hobby. :)

Great job by the club and volunteers. A mate of mine was one of those who recieved a call and signed up. Excellent.

Btw, consecutive days worked doesn't mean that the club cannot take constructive criticism on board.

As long as it is that I agree, but for it to be that, it has to be based on fact not conjecture

I'm not bothering to get into that argument again, you can on your own if you wish chappy. Mine was from conversations on the day and subsequent emails from club membership which confirm the constructive criticisms were well based.

Hey Nineteen (just wanted to say that…),

Well done, and are you still on the lookout for new helpers to assist?

Im sure he is Tim - send Geoff an email. The more volunteers the better, great group making a positive real difference to the MFC.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    Captain Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen, make up the Top 5. Your votes for the win against the Eagles. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
