    You don't get a reputation for being private school going, Bulla skiing, Range Rover driving, grange drinking, Brie scarfing snobs without a bit of cash to back it up.

    Demons fans might be smaller in number but when we really get going the money is there no doubt.

    Sat in my Road to the GF T-shirt to watch the game. Unbelievable statistic selling 10,000 units.

    Well done to the club's marketing team to mobilise that.

    I note one of the memorablia framed items of 1000 prints at $695 sold out in 24 hours and a new edition now offered.

    Its all just a donation to the club to secure the future really . Fantastic position. So pleased for the clubs Mgt and Board to now be free to plan and deliver ongoing improvements and the club's future will now never be in doubt.

    The players deserve this. Listen to Ed Langdons  fascinating interview on Gus and Gawy and you appreciate how hard it is for the players and staff trekking out to Casey at times.

    I have to say that the myth of being a small club is so wrong. We have 25,000 MCC members who barrack for Melbourne and don’t buy the dual membership. Add that to the 53,000 members we had signed up this year, in a season we all knew would be highly interrupted by [censored] Covid, and you’re looking at close to 80,000 members. 
    I think we are every chance to smash 70,000 members next season if all goes to plan with Covid and restrictions lifting. 
     

    But also yes, many Melbourne supporters are cashed up and waited their whole lives to blow cash on useless premiership junk.

    I hope you’re not referring to those gorgeous Teddy Bears? If so, you spelled ‘Priceless Premiership Memorabilia’ wrong.

    I think it's the raw number of supporters that people point at when they say Melbourne is a small club. Our conversion rate of supporters to members is huge, but again it costs money to be a member. It costs even more to be an MCC member or AFL member, and that's the group where all this merchandise is coming from I reckon (or a lot of it anyway).

    Being in WA a lot of neutrals over here brought Melbourne merchandise over the last 2 weeks. Eagle supporting mates reckon the Demons are now their second choice side.

    I think the Club did well to win over the people of Perth.  I had an eagles supporting friend who was living in Melb, but decided to return to WA (his home state) due to the pandemic.  I gave him my members barcode for the GF on the condition he go for the dees that night.  I saw him in a photo on Facebook with a demons cap on.  If the shoe was on the other foot I would not be seen dead in Eagles or Dockers gear 😆.

    gotta remember it was a drought breaking flag. Teams doing that are easy to love. Think the swans a few years back, the doggies in 2016. I was emotionally invested in each one for those sides . You can only really garner that free support once.

    Soon, when we’re a multi flag winning power club with 75k members,  no one but us will want to wear our gear and we can then celebrate being hated!

    It has always been my dream to barrack for a hated club, that everyone says “I’ve had enough of watching them win” about.

    And yet you'll admit to using Facebook.

    I know which is the bigger crime.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      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.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      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.
