Today I received the list of memberships for next season. It has been talked about but is it correct that we will only need  our membership card to gain entry?

Yep. Just gotta scan the barcode. The plastic card is no longer for the purpose of a souvenir.

Not quite....if I remember you have to OPT IN to get the card.....the electronic version will remain the same.

Definitely. I just renewed and you do have to click on “yes” to the question “would you like to have a plastic card?”  Otherwise, it defaults to “no” I think.

All reserved seat memberships already have a wait list. :(

because they are expecting them all to be renewed

last year it was mandatory that all reserved seats had to buy the gfg (>$200 expense). so reserved seat numbers equal the total number of gfgs available.

if i can't buy my 3 reserved seat memberships without the gfg i'll be regretfully downgrading my memberships to no reserved seat. It's just a rort where you have no choice

 

Is it something to do with going back to paper tickets? I'll be happy to use a card again, no more of this turning up the brightness shiz. 

 

By the way if you ever use your phone of night mode and you plan on scanning in, don't. It doesn't work. That night of the Sydney final I ran into that trouble and had some guy saying "Turn your brightness up bro" Pro Tip: It wasn't the brightness.

Sounds like I will have to call the club. I was in a drug haze when I renewed and don’t remember seeing it. Thanks George. They have some nice people the membership department.

Sometimes I find the backlight of a smartphone screen a bit too bright especially at night time. Night mode darkens the backgrounds and skins of apps.

Apparently the blue light of the screen also inhibits melatonin and so makes it harder to sleep.  You can also have your phone put an orange glaze over everything (in addition to having the dark backgrounds etc) to neutralise the backlight of your phone

Yeah I'm a big believer in the inhibiting theory. It keeps your attention stimulated when what you need is to go into a much slower state of mind before sleep. The orange glaze thing is great, much warmer and less harsh!

Agreed!  Love the automatic turn on for these features which are now available.  At 9.30 pm, my whole phone becomes grayscale on top of the night mode... except I can never bring myself to sleep then so it's not much use!

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
