It is simple. 

Stay in the race for the 8 and we will get over 40,000 this year. 

 

Or get Jesse's signature on the Thursday leading up to QB!

May 12 we ticked over 38,000

May 20 we had 38,266

May 27 and we have 38,391

There will be less sign on every week from now on. 100/week for 5 weeks has us just under 39,000.

More would be great but I can't see it happening. 

38,421

3 Game memberships will get us over the line. $99 and it gets a supporter on the database...

I hope that you are right (even if we have to invest in promoting the package)!

Unlike some other clubs, our pet memberships don't count. Although my two dogs are probably smarter and cleaner than some Collingwood supporters. 

Funny you should mention Collingwood supporters ET.  Crowd was only 28,500 yesterday. Home game at the G and coming off a great game vs Geelong and a friendly 1.10 time slot.  Don't know what their supposed 75,000 members do when their team plays at the 'G'.  Fair weather fans!

They probably won't show up on QB Monday either!  Mores the pity for our gate revenue.

The weather will determine whether I go or not on Monday LH.

Sorry to say it but I am a fair weather fan these days.

Actually I think we usually have a bigger percentage of members turn up than they do, they have more supporters there, but when you consider they have nearly twice the membership we have, our turnout is pretty good.

Most of them probably head off to the snow (or Gold Coast) for the long weekend.

More likely they head off to the Gold Coast for some Ice.

Hope you are right LH I have managed to attend for every loss ( Except the last two )

A win would be a nice change.

I actually think fans hate this timeslot the most.

It's so early in the day, it interrupts the morning and by the time the game's over you feel like the afternoon's gone too.

I think I dislike 1.10pm starts more than 4.40pm starts.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
