Melbourne sold three years worth of merchandise in the month before the grand final with the Demons poised for a “game changing” windfall that will put them in the top bracket of financially secure clubs.

Melbourne sold $2.7 million worth of merchandise alone in the four weeks before the grand final, which according to CEO Gary Pert was equivalent to three years worth of regular sales.

Melbourne sold 10,000 ‘road to the grand final t-shirts’ and would have made and sold more but they could not source more blue t-shirts and Australia Post warned them not to sell more as they couldn’t guarantee shirts would get to fans before the grand final.

We received our three today better late than never, they look great.!!!❤️💙

Fyi

Australia’s $320 billion retail sector has faced a decision by Australia Post to temporarily suspend parcel deliveries for five days across greater Melbourne with a mix of anger and grudging acceptance as disruptions caused by Covid-19 strangle the crucial online retail channel and risk frustrating shoppers with delays that could last weeks.

Australia Post, the biggest deliverer of parcels and packages across Australia, announced that it would be pausing eParcel and Parcel Post pick-ups, collections and lodgements from e-commerce retailers across greater Melbourne Metro operations as its systems buckle under the weight of a flood of online shopping in the face of shuttered bricks and mortar stores.

 

 

Hands down the most useless organisation in Australia.

I have parcels for work coming from overseas with other couriers in less time than it takes a parcel from Melbourne to be delivered. Absolutely ridiculous how unprepared they are 18 months into lockdowns.

I posted this in the membership guessing thread, but it's relevant here - I just had to update something on my membership and was talking to a really nice guy there, he said the club has now sold over $3.5million in merch which is over double what the tigers did in 2017. Also Covid pending they thought memberships should fall between 70,000 and 75,000, said it'd be easy to get there with the MCC members signing up.

The match worn guernsey auctions are going bananas!

Oliver at $20k

Trac and Gawn at $15k

Fritta $10k & Jacko $8k

Then the rest around $3-$5k each

JJ the only one under $2k which makes sense. 

That is a lot of cash for the club

I wonder how these work? Do they have multiple jumpers they've worn through the match? You'd think the players would want to keep their jumper.

Hopefully the club gets a fair whack of that money. It's over $150k all up on the 23 jumpers so far.

How about 2021 signed teams jumpers at $1995 a pop. And that's if none go for the $9995

Possibly, I know for Shaun Burgoynes last game he changed jumper every quarter to have 4 auctions.

Could swap at half time and save one, sell the other but some of the boys didnt even take their boots or shorts off and were at the nightclub with their ankles still taped so who knows 🤣

My guess would be a half time change over for these Mickey so both bases were covered

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
