This week MFC

Get onto it. 

Even the most stubborn old Demon Supporter will cough up this week after what the players just gave us. 

MORE GRAFFITI IN THE CITY

Scarves from the Town Hall windows

 

Great idea but suspect there would be little incentive without access to finals tickets

why not, there are 4 mcg home games left, so it would be a bargain

Absolutely. Make them cheap. Fill seats at The G and have new Blood on the Members Data Base for next season and Beyond. 

 

Seize the Day. Wins like last night are rare, make it stick

"Join the Ride to September at the MCG"

Yeah it would need to be at a good price, otherwise people will just pay on the gate if they go.

seems there is no 3 game membership on offer yet (at least i couldn't find one)

seem to remember 3 gamers are usually about $99 and includes newsletters, scarf etc. they often offer a cheap deal for reserved seats as an extra as they have plenty left over.

Our Home Ground has 100,000 seats last time i checked

Access to finals can be factored in, this is when little 6-7 year old kids can become lifetime Demons. 

I just hope the club is proactive this week.

Great idea SWYL, email the club?

Good to see the Club has it rolling but they should be more expansive on the website in promoting what the "3-game membership " offers. Basically, all it says is that it entitles you to get in to three of the four remaining home matches at the G (for only $2.55 per week)! What it doesn't promote is a free scarf, e-newsletter, New Balance discounts, etc. 

Anybody taking this offer up is unlikely to already have a MFC jumper so a thousand new scarf-wearing members in the stands would make an impact for the remaining games!

I don't want to get too far ahead or jinx us BUT I'm interested in how finals tickets work, guessing none of us really know seeing it's probably changed in the last 10 years but should I be buying my mrs a 3 game memebership (do they get guaranteed finals tickets ?) so she will get tickets with me come September or will you be able to buy a GA ticket in the same area as my membership ticket...

Ring the club in the morning. I doubt you will be alone mate

Basically with a membership you will get finals tickets up to and including the Preliminary finals. The priority is that you can buy the day before they are available for general release. Lead up finals are rarely sold out these days.

For the GF.... forget it

For this year after an increase the number of tickets available for each competing club is 17,000

At 40.000 members and growing you don't have much chance unless you have paid for a membership that guarantees you a GF ticket.

I don't know the number generally available to "ordinary" members but I suspect that after they have been pre-allocated the figure might be 7,000 but no more

40k members includes about 5k who are AFL members and those who also take up the MCC/MFC membership so the odds may even out somewhat 

I sent off an email earlier and just got this in response ...

____________

We are about to launch a three-game discounted membership for people who are yet to join as well as an upgrade for only $70 to those who have accessed 2 or 3 of their games.

All access members have the opportunity to purchase tickets to weeks 1-3 of finals and we are offering MFC/MCC members the opportunity to join and receive a barcode for finals tickets.

For juniors, we are offering a Demon Buddy where they nominate a junior who has never been a member to receive a free junior membership.
