what is the definition of priority 1, 2 and 3 memberships?

Context?

If context is GF tickets, 1 = those with a GFG plus others; 2 = long term members (could be 20 or 25 years) plus others, 3 = Other membership types eg 3yr, GA etc.

    You'd think our results and performances over the first 5 weeks would be crucial for realising our aspirtions to reach 75k members.  5-0 or 4-1 would go along way towards it, as would a much more attacking brand and hopefully some big margins.

    Would be great to only drop one at most out of Bulldogs, Lions, and Swans, then hammer the Eagles and Dons leading into the Anzac Day Eve game agaisnt the Tigers would have even the most pessmistic MFC supporter up and about and hopefully eager to get aboard financially.

    The most likely one is the Brisbane game, we play them at the Gabba.

    I'll be heading to the Gabba for the very first time, so would love the score line to be the same.

    I doubt it though but I'll take any win!

    My scarf, card and stickers turned up today.

    I like that the card has my seat printed on it. It’ll make me extra smug when I point it out to some ring in whose sitting in my seat.

    This is going to sound dumb but I stopped going coz I think I am a curse on the team, as soon as I stopped in 2019 we started to rise.

    Any supporter older than 45 can regard themselves as the kiss of death.   

    Worked out with 1987 and a 10 y.o. age of criminal responsibility.

    Apparently so has the membership Dept DC. 

    Excluding today, as it was obviously going to be a huge 24 hours given it's Melbourne M'ship day,  the demand to join in general plus other general inquiries/ admin requests on the m'ship side is said to be off the charts at the moment.

    While this is obviously a great situation to be in, i'm also lead to believe the club has allegedly underestimated the situation and is (or was at one point) majorly under-staffed.  A number of ring-ins (parden the pun) have been recruited from within and without apparently in order to assist & play catch up.

    they have been advertising on the radio 6 games for a standard 3 game membership (for a limited time)

    that's a good deal and no doubt getting lots of interest

    @Dr. Gonzo do you see Charlie Spargo as our version of Kimi Raikonnen?

    Kimi, deadpan delivery. A great ambassador for Finland as referenced by some of his famous quotes.

    Charles is a great man. He will relish the new wing structure

    Our last 4 crowds at the MCG were:

    Round 21  vs Pies        70,000  home

    Round  22 vs Blues      55,000  home 

    Qualifying Final  vs Swans  72,000 or 78, 000 not sure. 

    Semi Final vs Lions       62,000

    Hardly a drop off. !!! Yes if we played Pies Cats or Tigers would have been sellouts I suppose. 

    I don't think it's fair to include finals crowds in the attendance discussion.

    The round 21 crowd against the pies was made up of 50,000 of them, was the most disappointing Melbourne turnout of the year.

    But they will be scarred from last year GF. And they typically start slow.

    He is very passionate about NBA, you'll see him tweeting most days about his beloved Lakers.

    Kimi is a legend and very much missed in the F1 paddock. He at least has a personality.

    I’m confused. This figure was reached at 3:34pm today according to a DA member in the know.

    Maybe you have E.S.P.,Daise.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
