I'm on auto renew , which I think comes up in October, so yeah I'm in.

However, the only positive I'm expecting next year is more day games - which are a lot easier for me to attend.

( At this stage I'm not certain I'll be enjoying the results though )

 

I'm on a Tridents auto renewal with GFG and have no plans to change that. People I know with similar type memberships pay a lot more than I do and still have to enter a lottery for finals tickets.

I’m weighing it up at the moment. Financially we are cash strapped, being in NSW means the likelihood of actually being able to attend games is not great, and lastly, my health has me in a position where, frankly, I may not last a full season let alone be in a state to get to games.

Best wishes to you mate.

 

I’m auto renew, but I stopped being a reserved seat member a few years ago, I don’t have the ability to get to as many games anymore. And tbh nor the desire.

The absolute worst thing any of us can do right now, is punish the club financially. It helps nobody. 

If you can afford to, please buy a membership and go to games. Not doing so is only punishing guys like Max Gawn who are killing themselves trying to make this club better. It’s not going to make a different to Roffey or Pert or even Goody.

6 of our original 7 are keeping our premium memberships, unfortunately 1 has fallen out of love with AFL/ Umpiring/ Press and to an extent our club over the past two years.

A bit of rethink time now that Tracc has re- committed and issues to be addressed at the club.😁😁

Am paid up for 2025. Club needs us more than ever (and am looking forward to voting at the AGM…)

I agree and will be renewing my memberships, as I always do.

I can only hope that things change around the club and the President and CEO realise that the natives are restless and will not put up with the [censored] we have been.

Last Thursday i paid the MCC/MFC dual Membership for next year.
It’s not cheap and with all the madness circling at the moment, i certainly thought about it for a while, but i pressed the “Pay Now” Button as i always do. $1,114.00

I am just wondering who else on here has done the same, are Members going to stick by us next year or will they keep the wallet closed 

Roffey didn’t inspire me at all during the week, i heard the spiel live on air and once again later. Very underwhelming 

The next 2-3 weeks are going to be pivotal for the club i believe. I hope the Members stick together (with a caveat!)
 

I am very much like you, I thought about it for a while but in the end payed for both. I am seriously questioning my logic on the MCC part, I watch more cricket than ever but I no longer go to it live. Might be just me but the price of the MCC membership is getting ridiculous for just football. I am not sure I will renew my other MFC membership yet though but that is more associated with budgeting and the seat is garbage than the direction the club is going.

Yes i am almost ready to stop the MCC Payment, but once its gone, that’s it 

So i am still a Member


Putting off paying MCC for a month, rents gone up recently and feeling the squeeze. 

I 'll be a football club member no matter what but am considering downgrading from Trident. I don't want to but $1000 is a heck of a lot to spend on memberships each year.

Was an AFL club support members for 25+ years. Been GFG Dees seats the past 3 years and will continue to be. Much prefer the club receive 100% of my money, as opposed to the AFL

Keep the money hardtack. There is more to life than the MFC.

I haven't renew yet Dante but I am thinking about it. Some times I think they only thing that brings change is the loss of money. It is the thing that drives the AFL and clubs.

There’s not that much to keep OD 🤣. Haven’t seen you around this place for a while…I trust you’ve been keeping well.

One guy I used to work with had the equivalent membership at Collingwood with a GFG but he was paying around $400 more than me, from memory. A current long term Carlton member I know with the same membership has to enter a lottery for the GF if they make it, I'm guessing because they are *cough* big clubs with so many members. 


Interstate membership for me no problems ❤️💙

Financial and other reasons aside, if you don’t renew because of the issues at the club, you can’t throw stones at Trac for considering the same.

Clubs are built on members.

Don’t bemoan our demise or that we’re not a “big club” if you don’t renew.

It’s pretty poor if there are some passionate enough to post on here, but who won’t renew (or only mcc).

If you’re doing it to make a statement, that statement will come quicker than expected. It wasn’t long ago we almost faded into oblivion.

The club is bigger than the president, ceo, Goodwin or whoever else.

If you have the means, sign the f up.

No of course not. I just hope the Club now understand the damage they have caused. 
We are observers…

We’re not observers. We are the club. Without us, the club is nothing. We only observe on game day.

The people at the club are custodians for today. 

Voting by withholding dollars is short sighted. It might also be more effective that you’d like it to be. See post above.

I will be purcasing multiple Redlegs and Tridents memberships as I usually do.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • 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.

    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.
