Hey Guys,

 I've got some badges from the GF with Family names on them. The names are "Demunk", "EnBom", "Emmitt" and "Estes". If anyone knows these families and can find out if they would like these Badges sent to them I am happy to send them to them. I'm not looking for any money, it would of course be free of charge. I just think it would be a nice thing to do and something I would appreciate if I were in their shoes. 

Anyway let us know. And well done on the win guys. Most of Perth were going for you guys. 

Cheers

 West Coast Tragic

Hi Demonlanders,

Remember the badges with members names that MFC gave out to WA fans during the finals?
 

I’m desperately trying to track down the badge with my last name as a Christmas gift for my father. 
 

Does anyone have any contacts in WA? I’m trying eBay too but thought I’d reach out to the hardcores first 😆

I was hoping the footy club would send at least one out for each membership to make up for us missing the Grand Final and games. I know COVID has hit the club hard and this is just an extra cost but the merchandise windfall surely would make this small token of appreciation to members a possibility.

This is not intended as a knock on the club just a thought.

Good thought!

One of these would be a terrific souvenir!

Yes i am sure an SWYL Badge would be worth a fortune!!  :)

There is a group on facebook where kind WA people are listing the badges they have its called: MFC Member badges brought home.

Surely more valuable than the Koh-I-Noor diamond.

I was planning to donate the badges I got to the Western Australian Museum, where I work, as they are part of a fascinating sub-story of this historical sporting event here in WA. However, if I have anyone's badge here on Demonland who wants it, I'll certainly be happy to repatriate them back to Victoria. Badges I've got are: Corkill, Dent, Bayly & Ricketts.

Sounds more like they belong to an English county cricket team!

This is such a kind gesture. 🙂

I've merged this thread with an earlier one started by a WCE fan who was at the GF and is looking for the Dees corresponding to his / her badges.

See the opening post above yours.

There's not alot listed on the FB page unfortunately... think most have gone west!

If anyone happens to stumble across the MERCURI and EARNSHAW badges please DM me straight away 🔵🔴🔵🔴

Think only 3500 random badges were done

@Gary Pert, when we all watch the replay on the big screen at the MCG, maybe we could have badges handed out with members names on them. Like when we pick up membership scalves at the beginning of normal seasons  It's a lot more logistically difficult but can be done.

I’ve got Cockburn

Decided against posting a tasteless comment although there’s a tonne of them that spring to mind 😉
