I saw advertising where St. Kilda were offering 2 for 1 Memberships. I hope that only counts as 1.

Yes they were hammering that on SEN last Wednesday or Thursday, I wondered if it would only count as 1 but more than likely will count as 2.

    This membership table comes from the HS on 19 Feb. West Coast had the most members last year and are probably on top at this point. We are having our best year ever and are 9th. A bit of a reality check about the relative strengths of the Clubs and where we sit. 

    Richmond 84,948
    Collingwood 70,000
    Carlton 67,928
    Essendon 60,678 
    Hawthorn 60,100
    Port Adelaide 52,164
    Geelong 49,055
    St Kilda 43,500
    Melbourne 43,000
    Adelaide 40,000 +
    Fremantle 40,000
    Western Bulldogs 38,824
    North Melbourne 38,756
    Sydney Swans 35,722
    Brisbane Lions 29,318
    GWS Giants 25,094
    Gold Coast 8,721
     

    Makes me puke seeing the Carlton and Essendon membership numbers where they are given how crap they've been for years.

    I think there will be a huge serge in wthe first couple of rounds as we celebrate the premiership., I’m still predicting 65-70k which will put us well within the top six. If we go back to back 2023 will be well in excess of 100,000.

    ‘Well in excess of 100k’…

    You are just setting yourself up for disappointment.

    We need to be in the top 4-6 teams for 6+ years with at least 2 flags and then we can talk about having market share like that.

    Ok so I want to sign up, I was a redlegs member back in the darkest days from 2008-2013, but those are all sold out now and the trident too (which is around the price range). Forgive me if I'm wrong but if I'm a member I only want to sit amongst my fellow kin and be undercover.

    Of the 40k or so we have currently what is the breakdown of memberships? in terms of Redlegs, Trident and so on...

    So are you saying you won’t buy a membership if you aren’t assured an undercover seat?

    And you were a member in 2013?

    So possibly getting wet < 2012 Neeld era Dees?

     

    Maths is wild.

    There’s a roof going over the ‘G so you’re all good with the undercover part.

    They should have reserved seat packages for undercover seats on level 1 can't remember what it's called though.

    talk to membership on the phone.

    i'm sure they can easily find you a reserved seat under cover

    There used to be a membership category called "demon seats - undercover" that was on level 1 on the wing. Had GF guarantee too if I remember correctly ...

    I predict we will be at 65-70 thousand by mid year particularly if we start well and the girls take out the flag. We traditionally sign up a lot of our members in the first 3 or 4 weeks of the year, and so it will be this year.

    I can only assume you're a youngster... 

    We reached approx 53,000 members after our grand final win. Some of those members were WA people who support other clubs but purchased a membership to gain GF entry. 

    Where do you believe another 15-20k members are going to appear from by the middle of the year? 

    The only possible way that could possibly happen is if the MFC/MCC dual membership came down to some ridiculous price. 

    I don't understand where you think that amount of new members will come from if not from the MCC?

    Weve had more than that many unique members over the last 5-10 years.

    We were on track for $60k before Covid hit again.

    I don't think 65k is out of the realms of possibility after a flag, but I think it will end up somewhere between 60k and 65k.

    I reckon if we build a new entertainment,training, community centre in Fishermans Bend/ Port Melbourne with its anticipated 800,00 new residents we could easily look at that membership.

    Fair enough DC but I'm pretty sure that's the figure governments of bot persuasions have stated over the many years that this project was promoted.

    Correct DC. Why people keep thinking fisherman's bend is beyond me. The board says G precinct. Everything else will not happen.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
