So I rang the club today to upgrade my son to a reserve seat membership as I already have 1, managed to get 2 seats together but it was a struggle had to change to a dry area, so if anyone is wanting to get a reserve seat sorted for next year best you get onto it lots of membership sections are sold out already and from what the lady said they have been smashed for reserved seats 

 

i also understand that all reserved seats now include the grand final guarantee tax

up until last year there were some reserved seats without the gfg, though not advertised online

Seriously? Should this not be communicated to fans on rollover arrangements before money is deducted from accounts? If anything we should be receiving this for free given that we have been unable to use reserved seats for two years.

that's what they told me on the phone. it was only kept available the last few years for existing members and not advertised on the web page for memberships. given our current premiership window i wasn't too fussed.

That is dangerous. You won't have your membership card at the ready to throw down the players race if we drop an early game. 😁

(I think in Balmeys first year we dropped the first 4 games.  I was so angry I went into the rooms after game 4 to give them a spray.  I saw Todd and Brett lying on the floor, absolutely shot. They would have needed a stretcher to get to the showers. I didn't say a thing.  I felt like an absolute  human reproductive organ. Mind you some of the crowd were gobbing off.)

I heard a rumour we won't be getting a physical membership card this year. It will all be digital. Which is a shame, because I have every membership I've hard since I cared about keeping such things

Difficult for the MFC to produce 200,000 membership cards in fairness :goody2:

We can opt for a physical 'souvenir' membership card.  Haven't seen one yet but I'm guessing it is similar to a regular membership card but it won't get us into the ground.  Entry is only via a mobile phone.

Exercise the option when re-newing.

Interesting on the digital membership.  The physical one's are important for junior members, my son loves getting his and showing it off.

 

I put it in early. This is the one year I’ll allow a long delay.

Surely we have to increase membership capacity for all membership sections. If you're expecting a substantial increase in memberships you've got to put them somewhere.


GF guarantees will be at a all time high.

was told on the phone when renewing that you can request a physical card (with a player's name on it).  I did.

don't know about the online or auto-renew options

My Trident membership rolled over as usual - no mention of any other conditions or changes 

I can sadly only look from afar at your lofty spot in the membership list Bbo.

Just in time for the WA borers to open and Hayden Burbank and his mate to be looking to head back home.

Hopefully just to see us play Fremantle in a round 23 friendly before we embark on 3 MCG home game finals.

The 'souvenir' card option is there for on-line renewals.  Don't know what happens with auto-renewals.

From memory LH I was sent an email asking what I wanted this year 2022 re the package.

This  year I knew I would probably not get to any games so I just took the electronic membership, no scarf,  card etc. My wife told me at the time you are sure to win it in 2021 you will have nothing from this year not even a winning scarf. How right was she, I should listen more often. 2022 I asked for everything!!!!

Check out these pages for the goodies in a Trident membership.

https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/membership/trident

https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/membership/trident-level2a

No mention of a membership card or a lanyard.  

As mentioned a 'souvenir' card is optional and free.  I was told entry to games will only be via mobile phone/app.

The other choices (free) are shown on the right below.

If you would like the card or any of the freebies call the club.  The auto-renewal won't know 🙃

  • 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.

    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.
