Resource 2025 Membership - it started with an Invoice

[Hojuman]

Probably makes more financial sense to just buy some grand final package with a ticket included if North ever makes a GF instead of maintaining those high end membership packages for years and years in the vain hope we ever get there again. A few years ago I think it was GWS or GC had a grand final brunch with GF ticket at some hotel in Melbourne for $950. Not bad.
Also let it rip in that survey especially having a replacement game against Essendon. It’s a ****ing joke. Like your typical wank corporate survey questions asked were designed with a certain response in mind.

I gave them my 2c worth on trading Darling in in the " any other " comments section

Somewhat perversely, I'm more engaged now as a member than I have been for years. Over my 30-odd years of membership I've been a Schimma 306, a Pagan's Patron, Captain's Club etc; I think at some stage I had a reserved seat at Marvel (when it was Telstra Dome).

The past few years I've been a General Admission member but thinking about next year... can anyone give me any advice on what would be the best value/roi membership, on your experience?

When I say 'best value/roi', I know this doesn't necessarily mean wins... heh.

Do we have any AFL members with a club support package? Is that worth it, seeing you get MCG entry too (not that we play there much, but thinking of other matches as a footy fan generally)?

Sorry for the meandering question. Any suggestions would be appreciated, or what you've found best/worst. Budget is a consideration of course.

I have been an AFL member with North Melbourne Club Support for a number of years. It is easy enough to upgrade to a seat on Level 1 for most games. There was a time you would get seats near the North bench but over the years the AFL bay has moved closer to the opposition bench and further south. I got sick of sitting there so upgraded to a Social Club Membership as well. I had a reserved seat in Bay 7 this year. Sadly this area is right next to seats the club gives away through Huddle and you end up with opposition nuffies around you again. I reckon most weeks I saw some agro as people want to sit with other North supporters and not put up with crap from opposition supporters. I know if I do go for a Social Club upgrade I will move further around, probably closer to the race if I can

Near the Race is an awesome spot for when there’s a few minutes where our tail is up and then inevitably lose

Oh no; motor sport keeps it worthwhile right through to December

Watching the hoons fly up the willow grove road is enough motersport for me.

Hey Jane-o, I’m a 39 year NMFC member. Like you, I was once a Pagan’s Patron, and other categories I can’t remember the names of! I’ve still got some of those junior membership cards we used to get - little cardboard things with the fixture that used to get clipped at the gate. Those were the days! I’ve been an AFL member since the 1990’s - gold membership like others have mentioned so GF pretty much guaranteed. Used to be a lot better value in the early days as it was walk up at the MCG (no reserving seats) - the best! These days I sit in Medallion most weeks as a family member gets them through work (no one wants to go to North games lol) so to be honest, I rarely use it anymore - haven’t for years. I use it for our MCG games - used it for the Melb game this year and it was fabulous - sat on the fence on the wing - how I miss the MCG! Sometimes I do walk up AFL members at Marvel (walk up often available due to our crowds) - did that for the last WB game, other times I do standing room, sometimes Bay 29 - I have friends with all sorts of different memberships so it just depends. I go every week and I’m not fussed where I sit (or stand) as long as I’m there. To sum up, I would never give up my AFL membership due to the guaranteed GF seat. Fully expect I’ll need it for our upcoming period of dominance in the not too distant future

I got one of those digital certificates too - also says I’m a Roo Recruit member lol. They’re a funny lot

Thanks Rollmop, yes here's to those fabulous days coming back sometime soon. I used to love our Friday night games at the G back in the day, straight from work. Yes my mum was an AFL member for decades and we spent a bit of time lining up outside the MCG on GF mornings then getting a great seat on the wing as soon as the gate opened. Good times!

Yes, those Friday night games straight from work were the best of times! AFL membership good value I think too, especially if you go most weeks - costs me $680 - I pay monthly but at least they give me a warning (albeit just a couple of weeks haha). Good times just around the corner!

I know, I'm #11 in the queue. There's no way to edit the membership you have - it's renew or bust. Ticketmaster have a nice little scam going on.

That's a bit over a 20 percent increase, so about four times the rate of inflation, I'd be interested to know how an increase of that amount is justified!

Just tried to give them a call to add another family member to my membership renewal, i was 25th in line. Wishing the membership team good luck for the coming days.

Hopefully the increase is for the Keep LDU at North contract fund.

Ha! You’re gonna wait for a call back. As soon as luke mcdonald stops fleecing our club and wears the shinboner, we will never get a direct call

 

[Orange Peanut]

Ok I've just about had enough of the administration of this ****ing club. Seriously it's got to be a piss take to add this much money with no details, just a phone number to call to discuss options.
Every year it gets a bit ****ing harder. I wish there was a way to protest that wasn't pulling our memberships altogether. I'm just about done.

Agree. From a member's perspective, the club continues to go backwards.

Hope that we all included that comment in our feedback.

 

[kool kangas]

If we end up with another Bummers reciprocal away game l'll scream and wont go, like this season ...Hopefully we play The Pies, Bummers ,Tiggers and Blues as home games only...

 

[ApplecrossWC]

Does it still do the auto-renewal/direct debit thing? If so, where is the option to turn it off?
