2009 Membership (vic)

[danny]

I'm pretty keen on signing up to the new Full Blooded platinum AFL membership for myself and the kids but am slightly worried about sitting in the members reserve for games at the mcg... especially for the pies game (!) is anyone else thinking about signing up for this membership?

Seems like a good deal to me - I've found the general admission inadequate in the past, getting access to better seating is pretty tempting.

[bedford]

no matter where you go at the G you will run into collingwood ferals

[ScottH]

Which members reserve are you talking about??

Bedford is right, even in the MCC Reserve, you get plenty of ferals from any club.

[danny]

The AFL member reserve not the mcc. I was wondering if any other melb based fans were considering this new package.

[ScottH]

Haven't seen the new packages yet.

[johnno]

Haven't seen the new packages yet.

Same here, am I missing something, have the new membership renewal forms been sent out and I havent received mine yet? Can I expect it in the coming days?

[ItsAllGoodes]

I think he is talking about an AFL membership (where you can still support your club) rather than a Melbourne based Swans membership?????????????

Sounds like it to me.

The membership packs are being posted over the next three weeks. (I rang the club to check.)

[danny]

Swans member 09 info book arrived on tuesday - 2 new packages which add access to the AFL member reserve at the MCG and Dome (level 1) for 5 sydney swans games and 5 non-swans games at the MCG only. Also access for 1st 2 weeks of the finals should the swans play at the MCG.

1 package is a 'premiership club' style offer with guaranteed grand final tickets, the other is similar to the full vic member from 08 with GF preference only.

If you haven't got the booklet yet, it's probably in the mail.

Im just wondering how many people are planning on taking up this new offer.

This is not an AFL membership with club support. (but does offer similar benefits)

[mcs]

hey Danny can you post up all the membership prices for both Syd and Melbourne and Country- ie the lot. I havent got mine yet and wont get it for a few days yet and want to know how much they have gone up etc. A list would be greatly appreciated

[danny]

yep will do when I get home tonight.

[danny]

ok as promised...

Guess I got lucky getting the pack early

I only added specific details that have changed from 08 (as far as I can tell).

If anybody would like more info I'll add it.

Also - the guide I received was Vic/country specific, I don't have info for sydney memberships sorry!

Thanks danny very much appreciated!

I want to be a "lady of the lake" 'cause it sounds so pretty...
Wish they had an AFL Sydney membership equivalent that gave you guaranteed GF ticket.

Sounds like a line out of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail."
