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

Hi GYM. I hear what you're saying and I'm all for selling three game packages (assuming they'll even get entry to the ground with covid restrictions) but they shouldn't then be classed as members in order to doctor the figures.

    Agree, that's kinda what I'm getting at...

    But anyway, I'm sure every other club has it's unique interpretations

    It's all about eyes on the game to sell to sponsors. Probably a small financial gain. That's the way of the world in 21st century.

    If we can use this season to get an extra 5k-10k names to send reminder emails then that is one way to make the most of this difficult year.

    ?‍♀️ I’m in that bucket. I just bought the 3 games this year/3 games next year package. I told the girl I’ll be buying a proper membership in 2022 and she said I’m already added to the membership tally. So there’s one more towards the target. ?

    Only 200 or so until we exceed the all time number

    Suspect there’ll be some pet cats and dogs signed up to ensure we beat the record

    I apologise if this has been covered elsewhere; does anyone know how many MFC memberships with a GFG have been sold?

    Disclosure: I've been a MFC member for close to 60 years and a Redlegs member (includes GFG) for 20 years.

    Not sure you can call a draw with Hawthorn as powering our way out of anything.

    wow, impressive.    wcw's estimate looking good

    I thought my estimate was a little too lofty, but I’m happy to see the total has surpassed it. Let’s look forward to even more of an increase! ❤️?

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
