just completed the club survey.

suggested that they somehow strike a deal with the companies that provide drinks at the venues to have MFC logo/ branding on cups etc. obviously logistics and cost would be big, but IMO it would be awesome to drink a beer with the logo on the side @ the games. make it exclusive to reinforce that we are the only home team at the venue. serve drinks in MFC cups @ all games! feck em!!

When does the auto payments happen? 

Dedicated Demon Annual – full amount deducted from your credit card on 25th October each year.

Dedicated Demon Monthly – your annual membership fee is divided into ten monthly instalments (November to August) and deducted monthly from your credit card on the first business day of each month. Payments commence upon receipt of your application, or on 1 November for rolling payment plans.

https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/dedicated-demon

 

Not related to your query - we should see a big flip in membership numbers after Oct 25, then again after Nov 1 when the rollovers happen!

Anyone purchased GF guarentee? 229 is a bit of a gamble

I'm going to. If we make it it's worth twice that.

The GF ticket itself would be 400$ on top of the guarantee

Have been keenly awaiting an update! 

1,053 (3.8%) up on same time last year:  27,610 on Nov 30, 2017.  Thought we would have had a bigger leap on the back of the finals attendances but a good start, nonetheless.

we need roughly a 10% increase to hit 50k so a 3.8% increase is not going to cut it. AFL club support were also rolled over last week so not sure if they are in the figures.

TBH the membership figures mean little if clubs are going to continue including 3 game memberships etc in the same category.

Post their 2016 GF Bulldogs had a waiting list for their GFG category. MFC have never had one to my knowledge. That could be a good goal for the 2019 year.

Interesting that back in October I was going to upgrade my membership to Redleg or Tridents but they were full. So no choice but to stay with a standard membership.

I might add that when I mentioned this to Mrs OD she said just as well we are away for six weeks next footy season. After checking I will miss three home games so I guess the MFC saved me.

However it does raise the issue that only GA memberships are available from October forward.

Will GA prices start rising for the 2020 season?

 

 

Interestingly I rang the club yesterday to enquire about the prices for GFG. Was told that I wouldn't get the packages relating to seating on level 2 and was recommended Demons seats plus. No mention of them being sold out so I sent the Cheque off today.

a 8% increase on Nov 30, 2017. 

I wouldn't be surprised to see this rise substantially before Christmas - we have already exceeded last year's Christmas Eve total.

We are on the way to reach 50,000!

On a purely selfish basis that makes it way hard to get finals tickets etc. However good result for the club finances etc.


I've just tried to renew online. I'm an MCC member wanting to take up the MCC/MFC offer but I can't renew online. Anyone else having the same problem? (I will ring the club and renew, but my concern is with the inefficiency of the membership renewal system).

Gary Pert just said on SEN there are 22,000 MCC members who list MFC as their club but only 50% buy an MFC membership.

If Pert is even semi successful in that quest we will exceed 50,000!

It is around $800.00 for the combined MFC/MCC Full package so if Pert can lift those numbers significantly, he is doing some serious heavy lifting. 

Winning games early next year is paramount. Winning is the only way to get results. The rest is just cheap talk. 

The first 2 weeks of this years Finals  proved that. 

The passionate MFC Supporters ARE out there. They just want to see wins now. We have seen 3-4 lifetimes of losses. Enough.

Good post and something we haven't mentioned for a while.

Realistically though as more clubs make the mcg their home ground the percentage of MFC followers in the mcc will decrease.

Would also love to know the age demographic of the common group. If they are in the main under 40 it could be worth a concerted effort of some magnitude.

By the way does the MCC offer common memberships for Richmond and Collingwood etc

I just paid up today, went for the Reserved Seat open air to get the GFG and hopefully inspire myself to come down from Sydney for at least 5 games this year. However unless the mods have a problem, I’d be happy to offer my M15 seat to any other interstate members who want the better seat if they want to PM me (obviously if I’m not using it myself). Super pumped for this year

La Dee-vina, 

I just did my update this morning. 
You need to log into the MCC portal and pay through that. Click on renew my membership and as you've already paid for your MCC (I imagine) it will allow you to get either a MCC premium or just exclusive membership. That should work. 


Good luck & Go Dees

As far as i know it is only an MFC arrangement. The MCG is our home. 

The others have a spiritual home elsewhere, they rent...

And nothing says "common" more than a Richmond or Collingwood membership.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
