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.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
