Anyone seen the recognition wall on the page for $50+ donations? There's only 60 names on there! I'll put it down to just not being updated for a while!

Well at least it's not just me then! Don't want to make this a self indulgence exercise but after a few hundred bucks of donating it would be nice!

If you cannot do a list well don't do it all. I spent all my working life in sales and the adage I clung to was under promise and over deliver.

A week and a bit later the total is now:   $584,548.50

If we make finals, we definitely raise $1mill. If we don't and fall in a heap, we probably won't raise the money. No wonder Bartlett gave his spray. Performance in such a difficult economic environment is linked with financial stability when others may struggle.

I think the Burgo factor could be really important and he'll service his own wage in more ways than one this year.

Is the aim $1mil by end of year? Should make that easy if we make finals, not sure how we’ll go if we bomb out.

I don't know if this has been mentioned here and can't be bothered reading back to check, but there was an age article a few days ago that said we have had the least membership refunds of any club this year.  Less than 100.  We may not have the biggest membership base, but we have the best.

Our conversion of supporters to members has always been super strong

= low growth opportunity

Let's face it the demographics of the club are ageing.

As a child I remember all the old Fitzroy supporters

Deja vu is what it is

That's because 13k of them never signed up in the first place!

If we had played our first game at the M.C.G we would had a lot more, people seem to like buying their memberships at the ground.

Next year even if it's not our home game we should be asking for our first match to be played at the G.

The club needs to start winning a lot more games, or i feel they will not be spending their $$$ on a membership for the club.

 

 

Money going firmly where mouth is. Donation made.

Would actually be up for the pledge per win thing till the end of the season, might have to be slightly smaller increments though :P

I feel very proud of all those supporters who donated.   Such a poor year and they still put their hands in their pockets.   At the same time I feel a bit sad for them because the club continues to fail them.

Amazing! I was hoping mine would come this week... nothing yet!

 

Mines still awaiting fulfillment, looking forward to it! I wonder how they plan on running the draft experience as well.

Aren't they playing in this jumper as well this weekend?

 

Edit: it appears on close examination my name isn't on the jumper either, disappointing.

2nd Edit: chance it could be on the back of the jumper.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
