But the only certain memberships are worth having and most are already gone.

What are you alluding to? 

Memberships bought in Nov 24 are no more valid than an April 1 2025 or June13 2025. 
As well as rollover members  counted in from start in October 2024.

I was replying to a comment that said “come June / July if we look like making the 8 there may be a surge in membership sales”. By then most if not all memberships that have the guaranteed GF ticket attached are already sold.

Fair enough that is stating a mostly true observation clearly rather than making it unclear or possibly devious to uninformed members. Many rollover fans are more likely to have a GFG without a doubt. But if any are still available come July they are still equally eligible if there is a GFG ballot in certain ticket allocations I believe.

I've already paid for the GFG and my digital membership but I usually dont pay for my MCC/MFC dual membership option until closer to the season.


Spread some of these payments about a bit. 

Interesting. I didn't know you could split them like that. I just today took a big hit with 2 X GFG, 2 full price MCC-MFC and 2 discount associate MCC-MFC for the family. It takes some digesting.

Chat GTP is optimistic to think Collingwood will make it to the GF, they're geriatric now, the Geelong of 2025.

 

Not surprised HW they weren’t put back in their place like we have been.😪

I’ve got my membership, 30+ years consecutive member. It’s the ones that need the inspiration to sign up that you should be worrying about.

We are on the same trajectory as 2022 and finished with over 65k that year. It will all depend on how we are tracking by about round 10/11. If finals are looking likely we will easily get 60k

Sorry how is that relevant? So you pay your membership and then its ok to be a defeatist?

 

C'Mon post something positive, it's gunna be a fun season, we have Lindsay and Langford to watch. Trac and Clarrry look primed and keen, what's not to love?

Not sure it’s being defeatist, moreso realist. A lot of our supporters are fair weather types.

Wtf is wrong with our club, soon as things start looking good.. we assembled a premiership list everyone thought was ganna be at the top for a long time... record members 70k+ we seem to f$#@k it up ourselves, our best players want to leave and I don't blame them... we have 1 chance this year to recover this era so we can look back on it being a true success... don't want to go from flag and looking at being a big club to back in the doldrums where we once were.. there is so much riding on this season. Hope we can deliver 

Lastly to anyone who hasn't signed up, get off your a#$e and support like made this year the boys need us in the stands more than ever

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    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.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
