44623, that's a 200 jump in the past 2 hours

I finally got around to renewing my MCC/MFC membership this afternoon. That’s our fourth for the household.

Girl I spoke to said they’ve been very busy.

R U OK old Dee? 

Other than the problems of the ageing process I am fine Paul. Sadly you reach a point where something's are more important than others. With the virus and others things, going to the G is dropping in desirability.

Fair enough Old Dee. My Dad died late last year, so this is my first season without him, and it has taken on a melancholy tone as a result. But I must say, I did feel perked up after a couple of beautiful goals by the boys on the weekend, accompanied by the roar of the crowd, and Dad would have approved and felt likewise.

I hope when covid is sorted, and you feel safe, you can return to the G, so one day we can enjoy us lifting that elusive cup..

I thought of my Dad last Sunday night too. Long gone, he saw most of our flags in person and he'd have loved that performance.

The level of membership is getting near the point where they don't need me any longer. 50k and a good results year in 2021 and I will be faced with a big decision. 

WHAT KIND OF TALK IS THIS??

2 more to the tally!

Finally got my twin daughters' first memberships finalised, after a reasonably complex scenario was handled with aplomb and relative efficiency by a particular individual down at the membership department. A great customer experience.

With their packs unlikely to arrive for their birthday next week, the club says they'll send birthday cards in lieu of the delay - let's see if they come by then! In any case, I can't wait to take them to their first game at the G - maybe Queens Birthday!

But my true thanks goes out to @roy11for his thoughtful generosity and getting it all happening - cheers mate ??

My dear departed sister used to say that the difference between being a follower and being a supporter is Membership. Come on all you followers... Become a true Demon supporter with a club membership.

Just someone who the ageing process is catching up with, somethings become way less important than they used to be.

That is a very good total For 2021 considering all the negatives at present.

It is only round 6 this week. If we win against Richmond this Saturday night. This will present a great opportunity to get to get passed 55,000 Members for this year.

I'd be happy with 52,000ish this season.

If we can go deep and go on with the job next year we should be able to push for 55,000-60,000 in 2022.

That's another 10 -15k if we win Saturday night perhaps 5- 10. Without that 15 looks a big ask.

It's another 7k given we just hit 45k.

Ok my mistake. I think we will struggle to get beyond 55 next year even if we finish top four this year. We Don’t have big numbers of supporters.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
