It has now dc

slow increase but increase nonetheless!

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.

what is the 'dedicated demon' column?

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

wow never knew about this, so the club have been sprewking this 4 years?

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.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
