Ah… the survey. It’s the only thing I miss about being a member.
That one chance to drop a bucket on the club and point out their myriad sins, and feel a (misguided) sense that maybe you’re making an iota of difference somehow. Before the gloomy realisation that it will reach some lackey’s inbox and either a) progress no further than that, or b) get collated, sent on to someone vaguely powerful at the club and then be summarily ignored because we are Essendon…
They will duck and run after they read my survey responses. No chance they ever get a cent from me until they fix this dysfunctional mess of a ‘football club’.
Doing some tidying and found these things…
From 2000 through to 2018. With a 5 and 10 year membership pin, and one to “celebrate” the first game at Colonial Stadium. No idea where the 1993 to 1999 and post-2018 ones went/are.
“We understand things aren’t easy at the moment. But whilst the price rise was an unfortunate necessity, we are please to announce the acquisition of Brayden Fiorini which will no doubt add value and enhance your member experience.”
I’ve had to downgrade my membership mostly as almost all the games are Thursday Friday and Saturday nights and it just won’t work for families. The 2026 schedule should come out before they ask for renewals
