I sign up, and nag my folks to as well, once the first correspondence with a renewal form comes out every year. Also last year I managed to convert my 12-yr-old cousin from collingwood to melbourne, and am now working on his 6-yr-old younger brother.

That's right, 4Dees!!!

I(and my family) will be proud to once again sit through a bad season as a staunch supporter,as in "65 to '87, with little or no joy. I'll watch the reigning premiers every year revel in ephemeral "bandwagon jumpers" patting them on the back. I'll know that when our day of glory arrives(should have been '87 or '90), we true supporters will really deserve the euphoria that a premiership would bring.(unlike the West Coast, Brisbane, Sydney and Adelaide "new-chums", who have no idea what loyally following a Club through years, no, decades ,of thick and thin is all about.)

In the mean-time, we'll have to go back to mid-nineties mode , and concentrate on the survival of our club as we know it.

Every year we survive in our own right is a year of triumph.

If you join up now, after this rotten start, you're showing the sort of loyalty we want!(though you should have joined earlier, now it is a real feather in your cap to make the commitment.)

I'm an MCC member and to be honest with you (don't hate me), I haven't bought a 2008 MFC membership yet. This is the first year that I've had to buy my own and I will hopefully get around to it soon.

Sadly, I do know quite a number of supporters who are in the same position as I am (age-wise and having to buy it themselves for the first time), who have not bought a membership and have no intention of doing so.

Am only a $40 MCC/MFC member - which would surprise some I guess.

I decided it was better to buy a $40 membership for myself and 3 of my friends than the one full MCC/MFC membership. Adds 3 members to the tally and get the club the same amount of money.

wow I expected it to be high, but +95%

so just who ARE these 250,000 supporters we supposedly have

It's not very surprising that the vast majority of visitors to this site are contributing financially to the Club.

Nah.

Grew up in a small country town and hadda take a 10 year hiatus from Aussie Rules til I was able to forget all the miserable, bullying, chauvinist, hyper-blokey, pack-mentality shite that goes with country footy. If yr a country footy hero, well, you can't get away with murder, but you can certainly get away with rape. It's the kinda thing to turn a principled young buck off footy for... oh, about 10 years.

But anyway.

I'm back. And just in time too. I'll be lodging an application to become club president after this Gardiner bloke nicks off. In fact, I'll be lodging an application to become centre half back too.

But to answer yr question: I'm not a member. Tried to buy a membership online, no good. Tried to buy a membership before the match against the Hawks, but I showed up at the G late in Q1 and although there were two Hawks tents not far off, there were no Demons tents in sight, so no good. I'll get around to it.

I do attend every home game, unless I'm high, low, or flat out sideways.

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind. The media opprobrium of the ill-consi

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
