    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.

    Can we quit the dictator Dan [censored]?

    The same 'dictator' to be democratically elected in a landslide.

    If like this year we're still flogging three game memberships deep into the season then we could top 80k I think.

    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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
