Three years of absolutely nailing our trading, dtaft picks and development.  Someone give Paul Roos a pay rise.

Supporters can see genuine hope again.  If we snag early wins we will smash 40k and push 45.  Hell why not go for 50?   

Im loving the optimism but because Im an old dee Im also wary of it all. On other threads theres the talk of our "dynasty" of more than 1 flag, of brownlow medalists and rising stars....and 50 g membership. If we're 10 goals down at half time I can see a lot of blood being spilt ...and Im not going anywhere near this site for a few weeks! But Petraccaattack Im hoping you and everyone else is right. As a club we've been through the closest thing to a dark night of the soul that any "club" can go through....failure, deaths, public shaming and threats of our existence. We deserve a rebirth!

Looks doable!

30,029 on March 19, 2015 so today's figure of 33,146 is well up!

40,000 looks a good target!  If nothing else we will beat our all time record of

36,937

 

Indeed 34,000 is doable before Friday apparently!

I love that episode.

Anyway, carry on...

What a great number !!!! Congratulations to all involved. It's a testament to the resilience of the average Melbourne fan that we line up each year to back the club we all love so much. Fingers crossed that we can start with a bang on Saturday and really get this membership rolling along.

That was an increase of 600 members from yesterday's tally of 33,428 - would suggest that 35,000 by the weekend is not a pipe dream.

Unreal.

So we are on approx. the same number that we were on April 28 last year when we ended with 36k members.

Reaching targets 36 days ahead of last year...

That's impressive.

I think we will just hit 40k.

Beat GWS and Ess and two of NM, Coll and Richmond and we will be mid 40k members...

We should cruise past 35k by the first bounce considering there would be quite a number of members that will sign up at the ground.

Must beat GWS.

Another 280 overnight! Can't still be from the telethon surely!

Perhaps it's the pessimist in me but that can also be a negative if we don't get off to a good start! 

But looking positively it's absolutely brilliant we've beaten the pre-first round record. A good start will do wonders for everything to do with the club starting with confidence from the team through to more fans and members getting on board. 

We have a fantastic opportunity this year because of our relatively easy first half. By mid year we could be firmly in the eight, then I think 50k could become possible. 

Time to wake up all those dormant Dee's supporters on a wave of early season success.

Hate to sound pessimistic, but we will be lucky to crack 40,000 members this year.

Don't get me wrong, i hope we do, but i reckon we will fall 1,000-2,000 short of 40k.

Though i won't be surprised if we get up to 45k members next year, with quite a few jumping back on board.

I only bet each way when the odds warrant it DD.

Not if all Demonlanders enthuse a lapsed/new Demons barracker (c.f. Supporter) to join. We only need a bit of momentum and 50,000 is not beyond the realms of possibility.

Are you talking this year?

If we knock off GWS, and belt Essendon the following week we could be getting up towards that 40k mark pretty quick imo! great effort by everyone involved

Our membership department is awesome.  Put my membership card in a safe place and couldn't find it this week. Called the membership department this afternoon and they said no worries, just show up to the membership tent and we'll have a pass to the ground and to your reserved seat for you. Our membership department rocks!

If we have good wins in the first few games then why not, especially with Oliver playing this Saturday,  Petracca to debut after the first month and the likelihood that we will also see Weideman playing this year. We are already exciting up forward with Hogan, Garlett and (reinvented) Watts and, with Kennedy, Vanders, Brayshaw, Kent, Harmes and Bugg, we're not a bad team to watch play.

I'm buying 5 tomorrow beat the first 2 and 40,000 will be reached pretty quickly there's plenty of us it's simply up to the club to win and demand we go.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
