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: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
