The 2017 Membership Thread

[Ethan Tremblay 31,243]

To have 40k members given the lack of success we've had in the past decade plus, is a fantastic achievement. Consistently make the finals over the next 5 to 10 years and we will overtake a number of other Victorian teams with respect to membership numbers.

Just need to do a Hawthorn in the next decade and win 4 flags to be equal top of the league for premierships.

To be a powerhouse club again will only take 10 years.

Fantastic to see this. This now sets a base for the club to build off in the coming years in what will hopefully be a period of success. If we can get to 45k in the next 2 years months it will be a fantastic effort.

there, fixed it for you

Absolutely thrilled that we have finally reached this elusive milestone, but we can't (and won't) rest on our laurels.  There is another elusive milestone just around the corner!

I of course would be ecstatic to see ONE flag in my lifetime but how good would it be to overtake the Hawks and Pies on the premiership ladder and sit atop with the bombers and blues.

We ONLY need to win two flags to overtake Hawthorn's 13.

Not like you to set the bar so low WYL. According to Maxy in the video with the kids, the 2018 target is infinity!

With the name Melbourne, we should always aim to have the highest membership in this city, at the very least. 

[FarNorthernD 5,861]

yep and to those in the media who perpetuate the myth that we are fair weather supporters can knick off. We have the most loyal, rusted on membership in the league. 

[Dee Dee 1,141]

After what the club has gone through, 40,000+ members is wonderful - and it's money in the bank!

Now, get along to games and make a noise!

[In Harmes Way 7,840]

That video is just another reason why I love the dees.

Time to regrow the beard.

I'm soooo proud of the club now and every single one of these members. And don't forget, these are genuine memberships not Mickey Mouse 1 game or $ 1 members.
