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

Correct, the football club has a separate board but still gets some help from the cricket club. Years ago the MCC was more hands on, but no more.

Any reason as to why The MFC hasn't tried to sever it's ties with The MCC?

It did for a time, but returned to the fold when Jim Stynes was MFC president. If you look at the history of the football club you’ll find why they are so closely tied.

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?

53k is great in this horrible covid time.

Your guess sounds good but may be higher depending on covid.

Another year like this one and fans free to flock to the G could see 70 plus.

This could be a decade of success on and off the turf.

Thanks for the information.   I've always wondered about the MCC connection.

Prediction: 64,2021 😉

I wonder how much work we’ve been doing (and can do) with the Chinese and Multicultural community that we had been doing so well at during 2018. That seems to have dropped off the radar a bit in the club’s communications.

That being said, there’s no better recruitment tool than actual winning! 😄

Hi all looking for some feedback on 2022 memberships. Looking to upgrade and wanted some ideas on best options.

i like the idea of being in the Olympic Stand but don’t like being at ground level. Not a huge fan of the SOuthern Stand as we seem to be away from the crop of Melbourne supporters. 
 

In the Olympic Stand the Q section Is the top tier and according to the seat map is public admission. Is this available to the home membership (base level)? If so are there any additional charges on the day as opposed to the southern stand)?

Q2 is there a trident family equivalent or at least a junior variation to the membership? If so Is this considered reserved seating as it appears to be a waiting list involved here. Not sure I’ll get access to this though. 

any other options? Looking to spend ball park $500 for myself and son (10 yo) and optionally mrs. 

Any recommendations greatly appreciated.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
