This is awesome news but the reality is not everyone is guaranteed a GF ticket if the MFC make it are they? The allocation is only 30,000 to my knowledge.

 

GF guarantee... Got it in a rush of blood when bailey was coach , and dedicated demon payments ensured that it stayed there!

An annual donation to the club up until now with any luck!

Don't forget some of those 40,000 plus members are also MCC members who won't dip into the 30k allocation.

(Why am I allowing myself to indulge in discussion about Melbourne in a Grand Final? I thought I had screwed the lid down tight. Clearly not tight enough.)

I think the 30,000 is for both competing club's members.

For people interested in knowing more about the guarentee of a GF ticket - It is automatically part of the Redlegs, Trident and Legend 'Premium' packages.  It can also be purchased as an add-on with some of the other memberships https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/packages/view/741/Grand-Final-Guarantee

Last year the Bulldogs sold out their equivalent 'Premium' packages within 48 hours of the GF. 

MFC will have limits on how many memberships with GF guarantees it allocates.  So anyone who wants a GF guarantee should upgrade now!  Once someone has a membership with the GF guarantee it is unlikely they would lose it as the club gives members the option to renew their existing membership before it allocates more of that type.

Edit:  Memberships close at end of July

Exactly right LH, been attached to my membership (Country, in Tassie) every year since I first added it. its been $80 pretty much the entire time I've had it.

Think its about 100 if you are in Vic.

Are you sure you're not part of the MFC marketing team? With advice like this, you should be.

Just a humble fan who would love to see my club be great again so we need all the members we can get.

Also, someone who has a bit of time on their hands to google and research stuff :blink:

I hope any club would not sprewk guaranteed grand final tickets to upgrade and not deliver, well I hope not anyway that would be devastating.

Would be pretty confident that they would be able to allocate tickets prior to general public sales. The info below is from the website and website lists the conditions:

Grand Final Guarantee

Legends, Trident and Redlegs members have guaranteed access to purchase a Grand Final ticket if Melbourne is competing, as part of their membership package.

Demon Seats, MFC/MCC and Red and Blue Members can guarantee access to purchase finals tickets and a Grand Final ticket, should the Demons make it in 2017, by purchasing the Grand Final Guarantee add on with their membership.

  Full Price   Dedicated Demon
GF Guarantee Adult $125    $20.84
GF Guarantee Concession $80   $13.34
GF Guarantee Junior $40   $6.67
GF Guarantee Country $80   $13.34     

 

If you are a demon seat home member, it would be 50 bucks cheaper to upgrade to a redlegs home membership rather than take out a GFG.

That wouldn't happen - when the number of memberships with the GF guarantee have been sold each year, it would put up the 'Sold Out' sign on that option.

I think its the weekly/monthly direct debit amount option... so 6 months @ 20.84 = 125.04

I apologise for being pedantic, but seeing 'sprewking' and 'sprewk' is rather disconcerting as it is so close to another word which means 'vomit' and 'vomiting'.

Try using 'spruik' and 'spruiking' from hereon and I'll feel less nauseous.

Not only that but once the "GF guarantee" packages sell out, there will only be a handful of tickets left over for the rest of the membership base to go into a ballot for GF tickets should the Demons make it.

Finals/GF ticket access is the main reason I switched back to AFL Membership a couple of years back.

It just nice that we can even talk about a possible GF now, with credibility.  Bad days are forgotten.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
