Premiership should get us an extra 10,000 new or returning members at least.

Then there are the ~25,000 Melbourne supporting MCC members who don't have dual MFC/MCC membership.

65,000 seems realistic, but if some of the MCC guys jump aboard cracking 75,000 is definitely possible.

I'll go 71,966

Plus 5000+ Perth members! 😉

I have a feeling the "grand final guarantee" option will sell out pretty quickly!

I’m pretty sure it’s already sold out? 


Predict all Grand Final Guarantee memberships already sold out!  Unless those sold in WA just before the PF aren't renewed.

Anyone wanting a GFG should get one (or on the waiting list) asap.  

Seems to be about a 20-25% increase after a premiership. Hard to estimate how much Covid affected this years tally.. Would be stocked if we can get over 65,000. If we can get over 70,000 would would be at the bottom end of the big clubs (around 7-8 on the tally board).

I estimate 66,485.

I’m full MCC but tick the box for extra MFC. 

Can someone explain to me why MFC has this strange relationship with MCC that other Victorian clubs don't have? I'm assuming there's no tick box for other clubs.

 

The majority of MCC members are not Melbourne supporters 

Melbourne would have most supporters. 
I wonder if Bulldog and supporters of other clubs are getting the couple of pro Demon emails from MCC?

The Melbourne Football Club is a sporting section of the Melbourne Cricket Club. No other football club has such a relationship.

Oh, and around 65,000!

I'm going out there with a tad over 80k. All those lost supporters and now plenty of kids will get on board and join us long standing members. Wouldn't it be great to get to this figure and no real reason why not. Must be thousand's of Demons out there who are not members

Now that we’re back in charge of football I’d say 75,002

make that 80008, sounds so much better

Edited by Roost it far

I'm going to go 80,000 plus based on a couple of reasons.Firstly success and how it was just inspiring and such a stimulating fillip for a city, state and country almost on its knees. Secondly, this is a big adrenalin shot for next year, sports wise and for the MCC it must be marketed properly.

I rang up today to make sure my two sons had the GFG on their memberships for 2022. One already had one this year the other will be the first time.

I just had to update something on my membership and was talking to a really nice guy there, he said the club has now sold over $3.5million in merch which is over double what the tigers did in 2017. Also Covid pending they thought memberships should fall between 70,000 and 75,000, said it'd be easy to get there with the MCC members signing up.

i'd love to see us get 70K+. A bit silly that the memberships are not yet available. The club should be doing their best to sign up new members following the GF and keep the momentum going. 

The last I spoke to today said they should be available next week (I think she said Tuesday)

66,666 - I hope I am first to suggest this. If we reach that number, that member should get an upgrade for free.

So it's part of the MCC but not run by the MCC?

Really need Dictator Dan to get on top of COVID in Victoria by xmas as some members many maybe reluctant to renew/join, particularly those experiencing financial hardship.

65,000 is not out of the question but may take a couple of years to get there if COVID continues to cause havoc.

Can we quit the dictator Dan [censored]?

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
