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...)

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!

https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/demons-sold-three-years-worth-of-merchandise-before-grand-final-glory-20210928-p58vi7.html

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."

True story

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.

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.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die!

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.
