There is some sort of "premium edition" Mark Knight poster coming out.  Cost is $70 and MFC members have to pre-register.  Successful members will receive purchase information on Thursday.

Any idea how to find a photo or the number of your digital membership?

I don't have a physical card.

I did a screenshot of my Ticketmaster login on the app and am hoping this is sufficient...

(I foolishly gave up a physical card and opted for digital mainly because, this year aside, I mostly binned the material so I wanted to save paper and cut waste. Big mistake...)

presume it is the same as your barcode used to buy tickets (and on ticketing emails from club)

It says specifically they want membership number not the barcode. Which makes sense as a lot of us gave our barcodes away to people in WA.

Nope - it's the member number, NOT the barcode (which seems to have gone 'poof' after the season ended - not that I used it as an MFC/MCC member).

found an old membership card. yeah, there is a barcode no (12 digit) and a member number (8 digits)\

you could ring club, or, scan through old club emails (if you haven't deleted them)

Ok I paid $40 for the DVD and still waiting for it to be sent, while you can buy it for $27 at jbhifi and it’s in stock. How is that fair?

Ones a giant corporation paying minimum wage and receiving maximum stock and profits and across hundreds of stores. The other is the club getting less and ran by a couple of staff and volunteers in a covid world. 
whilst I know it sucks we need to realise the club would be swamped and only have a few people trying to work through the massive backlog.

Just be happy that the club is getting the profits and not who ever the hell owns JB etc etc. 

We waited 57yrs, few more weeks hopefully won’t kill us 😂♥️💙

Does anyone know if they release a DVD/bluray equivalent on a USB for those that don't have a player anymore!?

Yeah, I'm wondering this too. All power to people that still have the tech for DVD/bluray (I still have my 'Hotter than Hell' video tape with nothing to play it on!). But I figured there'd be a web-based/digital version. To be honest, even USB is fast becoming redundant...

Speaking of which, just checked and 'Hotter than Hell' is available on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTFtMz53JNc

Bidding for the signed Clayton Oliver premiership guernsey has surpassed $20,000!  Would think there'd still be plenty of bids to come to take Trac's and Gawn's higher than their current $10k and $15k, respectively. Great for the club!

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.

They are fleecing us. The Herald Sun is selling half of the same stuff for less, but as if I’m giving Murdoch my money and not my PREMIERSHIP WINNING DEES the cash for all this trash. 
 

I hope they release a finals DVD set with the 3 finals wins, and some behind the scenes stuff. Will buy. 

JB will have these sets eventually they are called Victory Packs and also come with a season highlights DVD. I also saw JB have produced box sets of the entire season for recent premiers. Hopefully these are sold through the MFC too so you can buy direct and give them your money instead of it going elsewhere.

The Weg Posters are just iconic 

They should be in The Louvre 

I met Weg in 1974, he came to my school. He could knock out a classic drawing in minutes. Lovely man too. I am so glad his legacy is still going 

"A man who allegedly robbed a renowned Victorian cartoonist has been caught, thanks to a detailed caricature drawn by his victim.  Police said the cartoonist, Bill 'Weg' Green, who is famous for his drawings of AFL Grand Final posters, offered to draw a picture of the robber when police arrived at his home in Melbourne's east.

Senior constable Aaron Roche, who attended the scene, said: "It was amazing, the likeness was just fantastic."

The sketch only took the cartoonist three or four seconds, Mr Roche said. He said the alleged robber, "picked the wrong place to burgle."

The $2.7 million/3 years worth of merchandise was before the Grand Final victory. 

I’ve already spent a fortune on official premiership merchandise so imagine how much the club will make from this.

I thought Pert said since the Prelim. So I thought that included the GF. If not that’s insane. So insane.

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

Love it love it LOVE IT!!! I’m sure we’ve all looked on jealously over the years at other clubs reaping the premiership financial rewards be it merch sales or huge member ship base increases.

Pert said on the Dland podcast they expected a $4m profit pre the Queens Birthday/Darwin game no crowds and post that to break even. This is a turn around of monumental proportions and the best part is I’ve now got faith in the club to not stuff the windfall and future membership growth aspirations up.

Understand, but doubling the price? That’s harsh

 

Where should we be buying our merch from to make sure $$'s go to the club?  MFC store an obvious one.  Does stuff bought from the AFL store provide same $$'s?  New Balance store?  Buying the DVD from JB Hifi (or others)?

 

I assume I'm not the only whose Facebook feed is now full of Melbourne merch ads from all sorts of places?  Some looks good, but I don't want to buy anything that doesn't feed $$'s back to the club.

Hopefully when we get to have the celebration at the MCG later this year they’ll set up a tent with more merch. Perfect chance to sell posters, flags, hats and tees and get them signed. 
 

The money we’ve already made from merch proves we can be a very powerful club if we just keep succeeding on field.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
