Also plenty of medium income families have both memberships, it's not exactly a exclusive club. You just have to put your name down fairly early on.

For full mmbership I think it is 15+ years for the MCC and 8+ years for the AFl.


Any member can nominate anyone else, you don't have to show your bank balance :lol:
To be honnest i cant remember , i think its about $450 and then i part out another $160 so i can get a seat at Telstra - WTF stadium for home and away games , i struggle to afford it but its worth it in the end as you only pay a tad over $100 for a GF ticket , id suggest people start joining as the same thing is going to happen with the tickets for club members and social club members in years to come .
If you can't remember what it costs, I'm sure you can afford it.

MCC and AFL members pay good money year in year out for their memberships. A perk of the membership is the ability to attend events such as the AFL Grand Final. You can hardly expect these memberships to be restricted to competing clubs only. However, maybe small sections of these areas could be restricted for competing clubs supporters only. This solution may help the situation.
No they don’t. They pay f all for the privilege of enjoying and hijacking the best sporting events in town because their parents put them on a waiting list the day they were born.

It’s an old-money old-Melbourne boy’s club scam set-up by parasites for parasites.

The Grand Final would be a million times better it was reserved for the people that actually put in the bulk of football revenue, not a bunch of tossers that pay a few hundred bucks per year and expect and get the world in return.
Listen here suss.....

I pay anywhere between $450 to $600 per year for my MCC membership, as do thousands of other people.

Calling us parasites.....get a clue you flog!!!
Great. I'd like to join next year. Where do I sign up?

I don't need to be nominated by a parasite do I?

That nomination doesn't need to be seconded by a paraside does it?

I surely don't need to sit on a waiting list for 20+ years do I?

It's old boy exclusivism of the worst kind.
Give your shoulder a rub mate, your chip is beginning to bother you by the tone of your posts. Crawl back into the hole in which you came from as your clearly have no idea.
Gee that's a clever argument with some really cogent points. Back down the hole I suppose. :roll:

Stiff that you're out of work, but If you can afford what you say you have, you're doing a lot better than many I know.

Sounds like you've been doing very well for quite a while.

You need to be a FULL MCC member to attend the GF

The waiting period for that at present is around 25 years

Why would I bother placing forth any arguments when all you do is bitch and moan because you feel hard done by? Obviously you cannot afford the memberships for these areas (as most cannot in these hard times) but don't begrudge others who can. To call them 'parasites' is pitiful and childish at best.
