Did your premium membership package come in the box?  I haven't received my pack yet, but I really loved the box it came in last couple of years.

Yep, and a blurb from the club congratulating me on 17yrs 

 

Received an email from Aust Post that it’s on its way, today or Tuesday.👍😁

I should be getting a 40 year milestone pin with my membership this year, which will be nifty.

That is a super effort, we will be scratching to make our 30th in two years time. Lol.!!

from what I can see, all resrved seating attracts the mandatory grand final ticket tax. there doesnt seem to be a way to get just the seat. My reserved seats for myself, and two children (18 and 15) cost $1500.00, not cheap.

It’s not a tax it’s a bonus IMO but that’s  looking at it as a half glass empty. 

Got my pack today, nice and early 😃

What is the membership target for 2025?

As many as we can get. Lol.🤣🤣

I've just gritted my teeth and renewed Redlegs.  It's the classic triumph of optimism over experience.  It's a new season and all victories are theoretically possible!  

I asked to move bays to be closer to some friends and away from two of the most negative fans I've ever met who sat behind me.  They spoiled what little enjoyment was to be had from last season with relentless sour comments and whinging.  Most games I had to move seats by half time.   Whoever you two fellas are you need to lighten up.  

I had gone up to Redlegs after 2023 as the supposed Melbourne zone I was in near the 50arc was full of horrible and aggressive oppo fans occupying our seats.  In the middle of that season I had enough when three Carlton fans on general admission kept kicking my seat, spilling beer and taking photos as they were trying to goad me into fighting them.  It was free for all riff raff to stroll in and sit wherever they wanted and pointless paying extra for what was effectively general admission.

You need to bring this up with the club, you should be able to sit in the redlegs area surrounded by like supporters. Visitors are supposed to sit in level 2A, not level 2, occasionally I will bring one visitor, but I always ask them to dress neutrally and be aware of where they are. I would be interested to know what bay you have been allocated.

Thank you :) My membership has been consecutive since the age of 14 in 1985.  I remember during the early 2000s the membership card stated the first year we were members, mine said 1979, when I would have been 8.  I asked Dad about that, he said he'd bought a family membership and put my name and my brother's name on it, but since Mum was a Hawks supporter, there was no other adult for the membership, so he didn't do it again until 1985 when my brother became an adult (he turned 18). It was more cost effective that way.  Nonetheless, once I turned 18 in 1989, we just bought individual memberships, and we joined Redlegs the year before in 1988.  I've been a Redlegs member since.  Dad was a 50 year member when he passed away in 2019.

Thanks Demon spurs.  The problems I had weren't in Redlegs because the MCC staff seem to check everyone's membership card on entry. 

It was down in M53 which was sold as a Melbourne members area but was never controlled and was just a de facto general admission area.  If there's nobody checking tickets at the entrance then opposition fans could justifiably feel entitled to sit there.  

I got an email last night saying my membership pack is on its way.  It arrived last Monday.  🙂

My scarf + stickers arrived today. No card though. (I took the card option cos I'm old.)

Give membership a call they are very helpful and short wait time, we are the same like our card to get in and access the Lindsey Hasset Room , etc. 😁


argh, how's this or annoying.  I was wondering why my pack wasn't coming yet, and then yesterday I got an email saying my November 1st payment didn't go through.  As it turned out I forgot to inform the club of my new card details!  All fixed now but it means my pack will be coming in a few weeks' time 😩

Check on the card they sent, mine was hard to see.

Mine came last week, as well as my Little Demons for my young one who is nearly 2. His came with a little footy and a cup / button game which had some pieces that looked like a choking hazard. Read the packaging and it said ages 3+. I hid it before he could see and he was pretty happy with the footy.
 

Got a call from the club on Monday about this issue, apparently following a few complaints, and a replacement will be sent. Could have been some tough calls that day, but the person who called me was very professional and polite. Also got an email from the club yesterday on the issue too.

 

Got a weird email from the club last night saying As an MCC member why not also join the MFC....I think...20 years too late for that; and my membership pack arrived 10 days ago....

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
