Would you be inspired to make a cash donation? If so, what sort of amount? Buy extra memberships? Upgrade current memberships? Grand final guarantee?

Me, i would go absolutely NUTS on commemorative merchandise. The drunker i got the more i would spend. Perhaps even a tatt to celebrate.

How far would you go after a flag?

    I'd buy a bluray or digital download of every win this season.

    I don’t want to think about it too much but I know my wife would be taking my cards off me after a few hours when the bank calls to say everything is maxed out 😂

    I would probably thanks them on finally fulfilling what so many promised, but failed over my 40 years on this earth.

    Firstly I desperately hope that we will be in a position to be able to celebrate the win and then find a suitable Tatt. It is just to good to image.!!

    Which of course doesn't answer the question and offers nothing for the club.

    Club is bigger than the individual. However I like many have given the best part of sixty years of support. Not so much recently but cheered on and stayed positive on  many cold and dark days through the seventies.

    I would make them promise to play in the grand final at the MCG the following year ( if possible ) so that we can go and see them. That is how far my MFCSS runs.

    Nothing. The MFC and I will be even after the 2nd flag. Maybe I'll do something for the 3rd

    I’m already over $600 deep in a membership that meant i sat in my reserved seat once this year, and wont get to any finals.  I have no income in lockdown and wonder more about getting through than what i can give to the footy club.

    Just sit there in shock thinking oh my god I have actually seen one. Id buy the dvd and re watch it with the different radio commentary teams, I'd buy memorabilia and just be so happy. 

    I have seen 4 storm premierships and have premiership dvds and framed premiership photos on my wall. I'd love a melbourne demons one.

    My new bar and gym will become a shrine to the Melbourne Football Club.

    Other than that, probably nothing because the bastards owe us one for decades of unrewarded support.

    Impossible to contemplate at the moment, and I won’t be in a position to contemplate when it happens!

    The moment I know we’ve made it to the big dance I would drag out the huge box of red and blue streamers, ribbons and balloons, MFC flags etc. that I gathered in 2018 when I thought we’d play in the grannie and I was gonna decorate my house.

    I decorated my house in 2000. I mean, DECORATED my house. It looked awesome. What a sad sight I must’ve been, as soon as it was dark, pulling it all down, all the while crying. ☹️
    Oh, and I’d defs get a tattoo. My son has already promised to pay for it (he bought me a tattoo last year for Mother’s Day) and I was supposed to have had one already this year but covid put the kibosh on that.

    Several years ago I moved to a place with a flag pole. I couldn't believe it and bought myself a Demon flag. Just waiting to hoist it!

     

     

    ..... ok, I might have had a little practice run... but if/when we win, it's going up staying there until it falls off

    At least when Dictator Dan locks us down.constantly we don't need to worry about having no home base and where we would go to celebrate after a premiership.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
