Featured Replies

Posted

Nothing on our website in any way concerning the Family Day yesterday.... but I'm very keen to know if our membership tally grew in leaps and bounds yesterday... less than 3 weeks to go and where are all our members from last year.....COME ON it's our 150th year. :angry:

 

speaking to someone during the day, he said he was hopefully to get over the 19k mark from family day sales

well the website just got updated with-

18,581 but thats weird cause when my brother asked last week when he signed up the guy on the phone said it was up to 18,500 , or maybe it doesn't sound weird come to think about it :)

:( Lets get it going

Hopefully this doesn't include those who signed up at the Family Day ..... maybe these are still waiting to be processed or something (he said very optimistically).

However, I was there for most of the day, and I certainly don't recall more than a trickle of people lined up at the membership tent.

The current figure of 18,581 is an increase of only 404 from the figure that sat on the MFC website for several weeks before the recent update.

Come on Dees fans .... get on board!!

why cant we be like a lot of the clubs and chuck a members thermometer on the websight instead of just having a number and also have a target aswell...to add to this, the club should deffs have a tent in cranbourne this week and should definately have a much bigger "membership purchase/renewal" advert on the websight....and when will they update the bloody websight!!!!grrr


I'm pleased to announce two new members - a Liverpool fan from Bristol and a Cowboys fan from North West Queensland. I'd like to officially challenge all Demonlanders to convert two less likely membership candidates.

good job mate... !! i am still trying to recruit a friend to do it who only follows AFL cause he is forced to support and watch the demons every time he comes over..i dont have to force him anymore though :)

Very poor membership numbers and very disheartening. This club needs much more than this to survive. Suffering from last year's failures. Only a few early wins can save us from having the lowest membership of any club this year.

 

Getting very sick of all the North Melbourne 'nuff nuffs' on Bigfooty bragging about their 23,000 members, while we're 5,000 less than them.

Lift your game people :angry:

if theres 23000 NORTH members out there i'll be very suprised, the amount of peop,e who call up radio, post on the net that follow the other 15 teams, and have asid that they bought a NM membership is quite big

wait n see what north do next year, the scare campaign got them through to this year, but when vodaphone disappears, and the guilty concience of some people leaves as well, theyll be stuffed again, 100mil looked pretty good...


With the way the admin Dept is being run at the moment like a circus i think its about time to bring back Joe. NO [censored]....TELL IT HOW IT HAS TO BE!

I too am getting tired of our admin dept

Updated number on our official site-

19,152

told this morning it is-

19,700

Hopefully with the AGE liftout it reaches some people who are umming and arring

I asked today and they say the number has hit over 20 000

Official number-

20, 381

Still pretty low, you would hope that by sunday its a min 22k and by that night 25k if not they will not even get close to the same numbers as last year. I think we will get a max of 26k but more around 24k is what i expect.


Our tally today stands at-

22,179

That number does not include match day sales where they predict is anywhere from 500-600

I bought mine today and we are sitting around 22500...come on everyone get on board...it is when times are tough that your club needs you the most.

There is no way I want to finish last on the membership tally...

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
