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.!!!❤️💙 1 Quote

Jaded No More 68,976 Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 2 hours ago, Satan said: 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. 1 Quote
Red and Blue realist 2,063 Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 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. 2 1 Quote
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 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 1 1 Quote

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. 3 Quote

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

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 🤣 Quote

My guess would be a half time change over for these Mickey so both bases were covered 2 Quote
