What are you talking about? I love the club's new desk.

Yeah, I wish people would step ragging on the desk.

It's a great desk!

I thought it was only Richmond members who participate in the above microwaving practice. I assumed they all have mullets.

If that is the case Ethan then i'm sure many Toig supporters would not be able to resist this mullet highlight package (Guest starring Lovett & Jackovich :lol:)

I finally managed to get around to sorting my 2016 membership. Gotta admit, I'm really disappointed I wasn't the record-breaker. I thought I'd timed it perfectly.

Ah well, next year, next record. :)

Getting to the record is like pulling teeth, slow and painful!

 Loved Jako when he played for us. 

His career was way too short though.

I sometimes feel guilty about this but I've done the same to my three kids (and their spouses) and nine grandkids, a couple of who have already sucked their friends into joining up.

I think this was an ongoing issue for him. At times during this match you can even see him grabbing a little at his lower back and looked a tad proppy.

I won't forget him either. The opposition crowds hated him but he was a match turner/winner when he was on. He did sook it up on occasions though when things weren't going his way. Could have been anything had he continued. I remember  looking at the goal kicking averages of the great forwards and he was in the top 5 (maybe even higher than 5).

Done the same to nephews and nieces. lost some to the Hawks and Bombers sadly. Still got 10 out of 20 to barrack for the Dees. Cost me quite a bit back in the day for memberships and jumpers!

Not one to indulge in a professional preparation. Such a pure talent though much like Sean Charles.

Gee even when "fit" jack was not a small chap.  Not a body type you see anymore in the AFL.  What a talent though.

don't forget the translated old video formats (unless adjusted) tend to accentuate width more than height so giving a distorted look

however, correct jacko did have a "unique" body shape which was partly why he broke down. liked his angry pills though. one of a kind, jacko

Just so long as the short shorts don't make a comeback!!

Back to the thread topic, any further update on membership numbers?  I think it would be a nice gesture if the person who buys the record-breaking membership gets a free upgrade to the next membership category.

Be honest, Jack, you don't feel the least bit guilty.

 I'm taking a mate along today into the Members, with the condition that he has to be wearing a 2016 membership scarf, when he meets me. Slowly but surely we will beat the old record prior to the match.

Then we should make it before the match starts. If people buy memberships outside the ground tonight, how long before the membership is recorded with the MFC?

It's only our 2nd home game so fair chance some people may sign up before the game tonight? Let's hope so

I can see flashing lights at half time tonight announcing a new membership record!  

Maybe a record crowd for a home game announced at 3/4 time!

And a win on the final siren!  

Actually, i really like that the club seems aware of this countdown thread and is giving us very frequent (weekend) updates to help us out.

    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.
