Membership 2015 - How Melbourne are you? - now over 35k

[Topkent]

Have a good Nab challenge and we might get close. Nab doesn't matter to good teams or their members but for Melbourne supporters many will need to see something promising.

Stupid as it is that nab game against Richmond gave me so much confidence about 2014

The Richmond game was good, because when we first saw it we could see changes where going to take affect. We played with a new style and looked composed around the contests rather than looking hopeless. i re-watched it yesterday, still is a good game of footy for a pre season game. Hopefully having been drilled to be more attacking we can inspire more confidence this year for the season ahead and get some supporters on board as well as get some good momentum heading into round 1. Now that i think about it we have two important goals to achieve in the NAB challenge to meet expectations come round 1; form/confidence and the 35,000 members target.

Yeah the game basically showed us that we had a plan , something to build towards etc

Instead of blindly kick it down the wing and hope for the best

Well I suppose that's a kind of plan...

 

[Djcjdees]

Not in the least bit surprised when the inevitable season-ending injury strikes a highly touted youngster? Yeah, I'm pretty Melbourne

I'll be happy if we crack 30k by round 1 35k is a bit of a pipe dream

 

[wowlace]

I reckon it will top out at ~33k.

yeah i agree, you'd think they must have some kind of solid plan with the 35k aim being made so public but I just can't see it happening

 

[d33my]

You've always got to be ambitious with membership number goals. I think it's better to fall short really; if we hit the goal then some people (who?? I don't know) might think 'oh they don't need my support'.

30k no problems by rd1.

 

[wowlace]

Well, 35k might be doable after a win or 2 early on. They still sell a lot of memberships out the front of the G at the early games.

If only Melbourne had 'one' more often.

 

[ManWithNoName]

We do often.

One win
One quarter won
One scoring shot
One fit senior player
One decent draft pick

Membership telethon tonight.

I always get jealous that other people get called by footballers and I don't because I auto renew with direct debit every year.

Sure, most footy players probably don't have huge personality on theses calls but I'm lonely and if Max Gawn called me I'd never be sad again.

There should be one player roped in to randomly ring people and say thanks for joining early. Preferably one like Terlich or Matt Jones who members usually flog so we can be conflicted by getting a nice phone call from them.

Get Jack Watts to make the calls. He'd get so many apologies.

Dean Terlich: "Hi [member], just wanted to give you a quick call and thank you for signing up again as a member. We all appreciate it."
Member: "It has nothing to ******* do with you. Piss off."
