it is still possible they might reduce that time in oz before august. i heard it was under discussion here.

 

Let’s hope dc I would like a little less fear.

 

Well still no movement on the 50,000 mark I guess the lockdown and our games against Crows and Pies have probably cost us a couple of thousand members. ??

They just don’t update it. Pert is adamant we will break the record of 52500.

what was our record? 52k? really pretty good i reckon considering covid and what the mood was  at the start of the season. 

Given  the team doesn’t  fall in an almighty hole at the end of the season and covid doesn’t crunch everything next year i think our numbers will be way up next year. it’s a great base to expand from.

52,446 is the record which is looking likely to be beaten. 

Agree,  great effort!

Bought another membership today.

Go Dees.

Pert will buy the extra tickets himself if he has to!!


Beating the record during covid time would be very good and a positive for 2022.

Just need another 500 to set a new record surely that great win over Port will help get it done!!

Such a shame, in non covid times a year like this would see us nudging 60k I reckon. Bad timing.

Here's one tactic to get a "record" I guess... ?

not a bad tactic, they get 3 games in 2022 but probably banking on them signing up anyway!

 

Just saw that membership promotion. Does this mean that anyone belatedly looking to clamber aboard the D-Train at the 11th hour now that we're finals bound gets three free games next year?

I read it as a way to get additional borderline followers as members into the number count this year and help achieve a record, while also banking them for next year

For this to be the case, my label of borderline has to mean not yet paid up this year, but considering it, and would be tipped over the edge by enticement of 3 games for this year and next  -  probably not a large number in that bucket, but we're only after a few hundred more to hit a record

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
