[*]Received an email from the club regarding memberships for next year. In previous years people have asked about a 3 game membership, well it looks like they have listened to feedback

Woo hoo! So pleased to hear about the 3 game membership - I'm lucky to make it to one game a year (didn't get to any this year ) so paying for 11 really is a waste.

Also means it will be a bit more affordable for a poor student

Also anyone who was not a member in 09 and is interested in a membership for 2010, can sign up here to receive more info:

I had the Gold membership last year with a reserved seat. Was in a pretty good location on level 2, does anyone know when i renew my membership that i will get the same seats again or is it random..?

Going by previous years- if you have a reserved seat, you must renew it by a certain date to guarantee the same seat for next season. You shouldn't have a problem getting the same one.

Cheers mate. All good news then

with everyone tearing up their memberships you will have your pick of the ground

Yeah but whatabout your whataboutism.

Will the part payment system be availible to all memberships?

Don't forget though that to qualify and count in the membership tally for the year, your membership has to give you entry to FIVE matches.

Please everyone keep that in mind when considering your renewal.

I'll be renewing our long-distance 11 regardless.

I've been a silver member whilst living in Mexico. Lucky you getting to one game a year. I couldn't even see the matches on TV.
I look at my membership as a donation to the club when I'm absent. Now I'm not, it's a bonus to me. I got to go to 4 games last year, all of which we won. (good selection of which weekends to travel to Melb, based on the fixture)

Being a poor student is a far better reason for taking a cheaper membership than geography IMO.

nah nah nah! ground level everytime!!!

My membership put me right in front of thier run throughs on the boundary line so everytime they came through on the interchange I would be yelling something like "WE LOVE YOU JUDDY!!!!"
..........they pretend like they're not listening........but they're listening.

Oh, I didn't realise it wouldn't count. I thought it would be better than being one of those Blue Supporter members or whatever it is, as I know those don’t count. I wonder why they didn't make it a 5 game membership then?



Lucky you getting to see 4 games in which we won. I never said I get to one game a year, I said I'm lucky to get to one game a year. In the 10 years that I have been a supporter, I have been to maybe 6 games, all of which we have lost (the bane of having a St Kilda supporter for a mother and our inability to win in Sydney).

And since I will be purchasing 2 memberships this year (so that come finals, I can take someone with me), the cost is the most decisive factor. Geography goes hand in hand with cost, as if I were to purchase 2 Silver 11 game memberships, my ability to afford to go to games would be reduced. It’s not like I can just hop on a train/tram for $5 and be there..

IMO, purchasing a membership of some sort is still beneficial to the Club. It’s better than not buying one at all, or tearing it up, don’t you think?

It certainly is, Olly.
Wasn't having a go BTW but Canberra is a lot closer than Mexico City or even Hobart.
Luxury.

DiS, disregard the 'tally' and the TC propaganda brigade and only buy a membership that suits your budget.

Every little bit helps...

TC Propaganda brigade?



That is true, that every bit helps, and your budget has to be taken into account, but if you'd like your membership included, you have to keep the entry criteria in mind too.

There you go DiS...

Spot on BS. Some years I don't get back at all so I make the "donation" as well. Won't be back during the 2010 season other than the 27th March only game (son's grad from Monash) so hope to get to just that game.
Every drop helps.

How the @#$%&! do you upgrade your membership??

Will I have to sign up as a new member or something? The link in the email and through the CFC site only lets you pay your previous membership category?

I'm renewing my nieces membership now...there was a message saying if you want to upgrade to call the mombership department.
