we increased by 4-5 thousand in the months after round 1 last year even considering the performance against the bombers so we will easily get to 42K performances will dictate if we push 45K

new members will come from the more casual fans that want to see a decent team play and not get hammered each week

That could be the case but it also may be true that a number of them have done it earlier this year.

To get to 45k is a big ask for a small club that has seldom got beyond 35k since day one.

    There is a substantial difference between having confidence in our team and then expecting to pull members out of fresh air dc.

    We may have the highest participation rate  in the competition but we have one of the lowest support bases.

    You are retreating dc

    45K was going to be easy a few posts back.

    I hope you are right by the way because I am not going to make it much longer.

    Hopefully our AFLW team has broadened our membership base Old Dee. Perhaps worth 500-1,000 new fresh air members?

    what is 1500 members between friends

    We have a load of dormant supporters out there. They have been hiding in the shadows for decades. 

    If we get on a winning roll and play "1987 style demolition" footy a lot of old battered Demons will join

    they don't trust the club yet and who could blame them?

    They are so battered they have probably passed on swyl or are you suggesting they will join from beyond the grave?

    no, 42k-43k is a reasonable spread. 45k would be an ambit claim

    I reckon it is going to take more than 2017 to turn them around.

    The min. is sixth place for those so disaffected to get back on in 2018.

    Reluctantly I have to correct you by saying "we have a lot of barrackers out there" and they came out in spades in our last game of 2016 (when we could have made the finals)! Many of these were MCC members who were too tight to pay the extra for their MFC 'add-on'!

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
