    Surely we can crack 60,000. We are 4-0. 
    Get on it people. 

    We will blast through 60k. 70k will be a shake from here… maybe next year.

    Just amazing.

    It is isn't it!

    Remember when we released the strategic plan for 2020-2023?  I remember thinking the mens premiership and 75k members was pie in the sky stuff... but we are currently on track.  Others will know better than me how we are doing on the financials and re our facilities.

    So this is what is in our strategic plan:

    OUR AMBITIONS
    FOR 2020-2023

    1. ON-FIELD PERFORMANCE

    • Play in AFL and AFLW Finals each year

    • Win at least 1 AFL and 1 AFLW Premiership

    2. FINANCIAL

    • Deliver a combined $4m profit over 4 years

    • Eliminate debt

    • $30m + of income producing assets

    3. OUR PEOPLE

    • To have a culture that inspires excellence and attracts new talent

    4. OUR FANS

    • Grow to 75k members

    • MCG home game average crowds of 50k +

    5. OUR FACILITIES

    • Finish construction of high-performance facility at Casey Fields

    • Start construction of new Melbourne home base facility

    With 56,841 members, is anyone brave enough to predict a crowd of over 30,000 for Saturday's game?

    Im predicting 24-25,000 for the game. Easter weekend and lots of families going away for a few days R&R.

     

    Anything over 28,000 would be a great result. 

    You need to update your name 13, maybe to 15…?

    The fact that they still aren't allowing walk up/ins to all games is stopping thousands from going. 

    It's extremely frustrating. Obviously there are other reasons. 

    But having to go online to book tickets is just ridiculous with where our state is at. There's no contact tracing any more. Why are we doing it?

    100% agree. Plus there is also isolation required for close contacts, even if they are testing negative on RATs.

    My GF had Covid during the Bombers game and I had already had it 2 months prior, plus was testing negative to RATs. But due to the rules I couldn't go to the game....

    Last year we added 10k from here on, which would put us around 67k. But we should do even better than last year considering we can actually watch the games and finals live!!!

    Yesterday I dropped my kids at holiday program - out of the 15-20 kids there were 3 wearing melbourne jumpers. And this was not a 'footy colours day' or 'dress up day', just 3 little legends wearing their jumpers with pride! 18 months ago you would not see this. Go Dees!!

    My kids are wearing their Demons guernsey's/hoodies everywhere they go these days. They get upset when they have to go in the wash! Only solution is to buy more 🤣

    Yep had a look then and sold out already, good for the club!

    Had a look and mine auto-renewed in October, glad that happened cos I definitely would have spaced it out a little, bought last years in June

    Today is 'Membership Day' on SEN.

    Club has a special promotion:  6 Home games GA membership for $66.00.  Has priority access ticket rights to first 3 rounds of finals ie not the GF.

    I just bought 2 for friends/family who might want to come along.  They are GA memberships so can't sit in my level 2 Reserved Redlegs area but seats can be reserved for them at $30 each for level 2A to sit together.

    Pretty good deal!

    Detail here:  membership/666-6-games

     

    Edit:  I bought them on my account but they can also be bought in for a new member account if that is preferred.  I found it a lot easier to just buy them and allocate them as each game comes up to whoever is free to go to the game.  Just rang the club and done in a few minutes.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • 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.
