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.!!!❤️💙

Yes I've had a change of username after 100 years of posting on this site as a very jaded Melbourne supporter. 

Nice!

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 🤣


 

I must admit  ( and I dont want to offend) that I always thought personalised plates were for to##ers.  We'll I'm now one :)

The club should sell blue ray players to go with them, we don’t have one in our house any longer lol. 

Got a PS3, 4 or 5 Cards?

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

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
