$2.7 million worth of merch in a four-week period, and that’s BEFORE the grand final win! That’s nuts!!!

 

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.

Exactly what we need in this age where COVID is hurting club’s profitability

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

  • NON-MFC: Round 7

    Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
