Doggies getting on board good stuff'Dogs at 3,806 now
Isnt it extremely sad that souths have nearly 3 times the amount of members besides the fact that manly won and souths came 14th? Shows the difference in loyalty doesn't it?
Ahh we can't really put it down to that, well not yet. South's started their push for memberships 3 seasons ago after Russell & Peter took over and have been extremely proactive and vocal about the need for members.
This has started the gradual growth in membership the Rabbitohs are now enjoying, and go on them for that.
If you compare it to the other clubs involved, well the Bulldogs first ever push for memberships was last season and their call for 10,000 members by 2010. Not a bad concept, and I'm sure one they would have grown on had they not had the season they endured. On-field and off-field problems forced the club to have a rethink on its membership strategy, and honestly I think they have gone a long way to getting it right. Cheaper prices, more flexible packages, if they stick with this for a few seasons, they will grow some significant membership numbers.
Raiders membership push came for the first time ever just before the final series last year. Not a huge push for them, going from around 3,000 to 5,000 but at least they are trying to create some momentum now. Hopefully they push for 7,000 in 2010 and keep gradually increasing it at realistic levels.
Manly I think their biggest issue is their ground. Most of the memberships they have available to sell are on their hill. Not the easiest to sell. Whilst everyone says they love to sit on he hill on a sunny Sunday afternoon, no one wants to pay a season membership for a patch of dirt.
Before we claim who has the most loyal members, lets give all clubs a few years at this membership concept....otherwise we will have to say the Dragons have the most loyal fans, as their numbers are bigger than Souths....
Says who? Last year Souths had 6,651 Ticketed Members and 12,540 total Members. We were number one in Sydney and have already surpassed that total so far this year.Ahh we can't really put it down to that, well not yet.

Once again, says who? Where did you get your "impression" from?I was always under the impression Red V had the highest membership in Sydney...
I've only ever heard otherwise from Souths fans. Hardly a trustworthy source
