The article is referring to ticketed members, not total members. If it were total members, yes Canterbury would be second and Souths would be $50k richer.

Again, you have no proof either way.

the proof is in the article - go and argue with them if you disagree:lol:

The article was written before the Bulldogs got to 5194, i think we were still on 5001.

 

[Timmah]

We're at 5,236 I think now.

And big country, there has been no qualified statement from anyone indicating whether the Bulldogs' figure includes non-ticketed members.

 

[yakstorm]

The figures are on NRL.com, and it says Ticketed members only, so that would explain any 'differences' some of the clubs have been reporting.

Appears the NRL.com list also has the non-NSW club numbers as well.

Obviously the Bulldogs figure is a combination of ticketed and non-ticketed members. So far we haven't surpassed last year's figure. Still great either way. Here's the top 8 as it stands:

1. Brisbane - 9,500
2. Cowboys - 6,976
3. Rabbitohs - 6,908
4. Eels - 5,150
5. Bulldogs - 4,193
6. Knights - 3,927
7.Titans - 3,673
8. Warriors - 2,863

That's total members not just ticketed members.

NRL.com has posted total ticketed members sold and it's from Dec 10.

something to do with the new stadium

 

[Jankuloski]

Seems the Broncos will exceed their mark by the entire tally of the sharks...

 

[Cumberland Throw]

I like the idea the NRL has come up with, but in any promotion you should anticipate the outcome before starting.... So basically the NRL 50% owned by news ltd will give the news ltd majority owned broncos an extra 10k in next years grant...

And in a town of 3M or so if you cant get 10k season ticketed members when you are one of the biggest brands in town is a joke...

There is a prize for the biggest % increase as well I think which may help, any way well done for a new idea... and $10 or $20k is chicken feed.... to the NRL or any club...Remember K Hunt now earns that every 3 days

 

[Monk]

Good on the Cowboys.

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

This idea is great for the race to 10'000. A very good initiative by the NRL. A bit more then $50,000 would be good but no use complaning. Hopefully by 2013, if the game has more $$$, they could offer more money to the first club that reaches 20,000 members.

 

[Jankuloski]

Good idea!

NRL Fri, 11 Dec 2009 16:38:00

Whilst the kick off to the 2010 Telstra Premiership season is still over three months away, the race to prove which club has the most members is well under way.

Whilst the Queensland contingent of the Broncos and Cowboys are currently in the top two positions, Sydney clubs the Rabbitohs, Eels and Bulldogs fans have started to take the next step and become a ticketed member of their club.

With all clubs being set the challenge to at least improve on their 2009 levels, Grand Finalist the Parramatta Eels have already smashed their target, and are setting their sights on being the first NSW club to reach the 10,000 ticketed member mark.​

Note: The figures displayed above are correct as of Thursday December 10, 2009. Membership numbers only include those members who have a ticketed membership and is not reflective of the total membership figures of the clubs.

I think you'll find that the race to 10,000 ticketed members which is being pushed in the Telegraph is only for NSW clubs.

Still great to see these membership figures, that have been 'hidden' for so long by some clubs, are finally in the public domain.

Whilst it is clear some clubs have a long way to go to having a respectable membership base, the most encouraging thing is all clubs are well on track to breaking their 09 figures.

Most clubs generally sell more than half their memberships in late Jan / Feb and early March as the season approaches.
