Memberships - Will we Make 30,000?

Featured Replies

Posted

Just got the MFC Members e-mail and they state that there are now 23.497 members.

Does anyone reckon we will hit the magic 30,000?

Remember the bad start we had last year and we had a record membership then.

Now is the time to buy your membership. The MFC clubs needs you,

Cheers,

Mr Moose

 

I have a theory, these re-usable membership cards, there is no urgency for Members to sign up therefor waiting till the first home game, we lose by 100+ points old members think I'm not signing up if their form turns around then I will sign up. Usually you sign up before the season so you get your card before the season starts know we don't have to. Food for thought

No.

 

If we are able to get 25,000 members, it would be a decent tally given the horrible pre-season and first few rounds.

26K+ would be a phenominal effort IMO.

Snowcone's chance in hell.

It hurts so much! Why are we (Demonlanders) so strong, but our other supporters so weak!

We are a club! Be a part of it, regardless of if we are winning or losing!


apparantly we have the highest supporter to member ratio in the AFL, we just have no supporters also

I agree with this.

I don't think the reusable cards idea was thought through.

My guess is about 25k. No more, no less.

 

I'm not too sure about this but i've read somewhere (or have been told) that, yes, it is true we have the lowest membership, but that alot of Melbourne supporters also have MCC membership and therefore see no reason to pay the club membership.

This would entail that we actually do have a pretty decent number of supporters, they are just a bunch of financially observant chaps.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
