I fully agree with this! Not only Richmond/Hawthorn/Geelong but also Bombers/Kangas/Saints! We have to move swiftly to dominate this League before the other six Victorian teams come snapping at our heels! (BTW> 33,520 members and climbing!)

p.s. I also agree with Binman regarding the advantages of an alliance with the Melbourne Vixens!

Sometimes think that D'landers should be on the marketing team, often good ideas that should be considered.

Any particular reason? For example, are you not members or, perhaps, "not-yet-renewed members" and they were encouraging you to join/rejoin?

I am as tragically rusted on MFC member as you can get and will always remain grateful that others can't see how much time I waste thinking about all things Melbourne. Unfortunately the club don't know that the only reason that I won't renew is because I have passed on (and like my father I hope to have my ashes scattered at CHF, scoreboard end) so Josh rang last night to see if I was going to sign up as I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Did anyone else get a call from any players last night?

Got a call to renew and did. Didnt know players were calling so potentially spoke to someone. Had a bit of a laugh with him that i need the boys to win due to making too many bets with a saints mate.

Just signed up today, got a reserved seat this year but I probably won't be able to make it all games, I know membership isn't transferable but I was just wondering if I might be able to give my card and seat to my sister when I can't make it?  Never had a reserved seat, so can anyone answer if the MCG staff strict on the names in reserved bays or do they just care if the card matches the bay etc?

Cheers and go Dees. (Sorry for hijack)

Na, I've had a reserved seat for years. They don't care who you are, just that you have a valid ticket.

Looking at the trends, look like approx. 2500 sign up either at the first game or the week leading into the first game, so by end March we should be pushing 38K.  Hopefully by Anzac Eve game V Richmond we hit the 40K mark

@george_on_the_outer

Thanks for adding the dates to the table in

Must have taken eons to get the past year data.  It really gives another insight into how we are tracking.  Thanks for the efforts.

 

 

And, congratulations Ethan T.  A budding AFLW champion, I hope!

Well I re-signed my mum up on the day of the melbourne/carlton pre season game at Casey which was 3 weeks ago. I filled out the form and the girl said she couldn't process payment but wrote down my credit card details on the form. So far 3 weeks later money hasn't been taken from my account so it obviously hasn't been processed. I emailed the membership department on friday as I work before and after office hours and got no response. 

So at some satge 1 more will be added to the total. Just hope they haven't lost my form.

Let us know how you get on signing up someone with a date of birth that's in the future.

And, much more importantly - congratulations.

I have always signed up my kids before they were born you just give them due date can change it later and they send out membership card with last name on it and baby as 1st name

I'm lazy enough that once I've got some documentation that calls my child "Baby Comedia", the child better get used to the name because I'm not going to bother changing it.

    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
