So we finally won a Grand Final.

Im still drifting between drunk and hungover and have spent up big on club merch. I know im not alone, and many would have spent much more than me going by the jumper auctions online. This premiership will do so much for the club that its effects will be felt for years.

One of the huge improvements should be club membership next year. Lets see who can get closest to the official figure.

53,706 was this years total and we will break that by a long way.

My guess for next year is 67,500.

Whats yours?

    I reckon we push 100k.

    We are a sleeping giant.

    We are Melbourne.

    I am going to say anything over 65,000+ will be wonderful.

    We had over 52,000 members this year.

    So an increase of over 10,000 would be great to see.

    If we get 70,000+ members then that will be HUGE!!! We won't be a small club anymore with those numbers.

    Remember that you need sustained success with multiple Premierships to expect to see genuine growth of members.

    We have missed out on generations of Melbourne supporters after 57 years of mediocrity.

    However, there will be ALOT of lapsed Demons supporters wanting to be members in 2022 though!

    Seeing Melbourne hopefully win a Premiership on the MCG will be a massive draw card for people!

    61,222.

    I don’t see the membership will increase that dramatically given people from Victoria still aren’t 100% certain whether AFL footy will be a TV event or a live event next year.

    Will be live for fully vaccinated. Perhaps for everyone if we reach 90% fully vaxxed by next March.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
