Last year I got a $36 MFC (3 game) membership when Kysaiah Pickett re-signed but $1 is bit ridiculous.

    Not enuff wins, inconsistency, people short of money.

    Ah missed it, was on holidays abroad for the last month. Anyways, my Kayo subscription is via MFC so that is my contribution to the Dees for this year 🙂

    Anyone who complains about our current membership numbers are just looking for ways to pot the club. The fact we have exceeded 60k members several years running now is phenomenal.

    Bulldogs this week were selling $1 memberships.  At least we're not that desperate.

     

    Edit - just noticed so were we.  Okay.  Egg on face.

    Agreed. If anything, a season like this where the Dees dipped in form shows that the membership base level of around 65K is quite solid and a springboard to build upwards from.

    Hi Katrina I didn’t see $1 memberships, I saw the $29 junior memberships to celebrate Windsor/Tholstrup re-signing and I usually receive all emails from the club?

    Okay I may be mistaken there, too, I thought someone on Page 3 of this mention $1 memberships.  Don't mind me, it's Friday.....

    We should be capable of reaching 75k plus in a good year (where we are GF favourites).

    Agree No. 31 to still reach 65k after all the negative press regarding Clayton, Grundy & JS as well as the heart break with Gus & Tracc and our loss of form it is a great base to bounce back from. We now have all our ducks lined up, a strong draft to look forward to and another preseason for our youngsters and a couple of our injured veterans.

    True.

    That is why it is important clubs get the members on an auto renewal direct debit 😁

    I see our official membership figure was 65548 for 2024.This is about an 8% drop on last year and lower than 2022.We now rank 11th on the membership table .We are less mid table and more in line with lower end. Our membership  projection for 2025 would be of  serious concern after all the negative press heaped on us.

    Sadly If the negative press didn’t get you, the 4 close losses and the 3 total wipeouts would have discouraged the hesitant and late joiners.

    Most importantly we lost 5,306 members. 

    Only 3 other clubs lost members in 2024.   Richmond with 2,860, Essendon with 2,610 and North with 456.

    Those numbers for us will drop again next year off the back of a 14th place. 

    Asleep at the wheel is a good description of what has been going on behind the scenes.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
