2013 Memberships

[S.S.T.I.D]

 

[BunniesMan]

3 years.

So you are a bandwagon bunnies supporter in the good times eh?

Where were you 10 years ago.

I got my first membership when I was 19. 10 years ago I was 12. Not sure about you at 12 but when I was 12 I didn't exactly have the money to buy club memberships.

And good times? 1 top 8 year in 3 years is hardly good times.

But you're rich arent you? Your parents pay you something like $1000 a week so you can live. Surely they would have bought you a 50uff$ membership.

Surely 5(c)uff$ accept bottle caps and empty cans as payment? How else could they get 20,000 members?

 

[firechild]

If this 5(c)uff$ fan can be so specific about the number that it is more than, why can't they just be specific about the number it is? lol@5(c)uff$

Membership figures should be based on total number of game tickets. St George-Illawarra and Wests Tigers have memberships for each of their home games, so if somebody buys ticketed memberships to all Tigers home games they have 3 different memberships, whereas others would only have one. Also clubs like Souths have non-ticketed memberships which are counted.
If Souths had 20000+ members why do they get around 10000 to their home games? Because the majority of these memberships are non-ticketed.
Compare apples with apples and only list ticketed memberships and number of tickets.

You're either a liar or severely ignorant.

How long ago was it since Souths were competing for the top 8 regularly with decent on field players?

 

[forby]

Then how many ticketed memberships do they have? How many of these are 3 game packages? You are sadly mistaken if you think they have 20000 season ticket members!

Why does everyone hate on Souths Memberships? It is money in the bank. I bet any club would take 20,000 extra members even if none were ticketed. geniused logic by some fans here. Shows that many fans are willing to join the club even if they can't or don't want to go to games (prefer TV or easier b/c of kids).

You got your personal pronouns mixed up. I think you meant to use "I'm" instead of "You're". The correct answer would be both.

The Knights had the #1 TICKETED membership last year which was 18,000 and Souths were claiming they had 22,000 members so obviously they had less than 18k ticketed members

I think it'll be the same story again this year. It's good they're making money off these 3 game memberships and out of town ones and pet ones or whatever bullshit they're doing but the numbers are nothing to really brag about if they don't translate to decent crowd numbers

 

[forby]

Exactly what I was trying to say. Every member of the Panthers licensed clubs are members of the Football club, which would actually make them the largest membership. Penrith only lists their ticketed memberships.

Jealousy? Both the Perth AFl clubs have announced memberships of 35k+ and big profits, the two are not unrelated! Membership is money in the bank on a number of levels for clubs and to see some drifting along on sub 10k is a bit of a joke really. We keep being told that RL in Sydney would crash without 9 clubs yet some clubs clearly don't have that many people that are interested in them, or are very very poor at tapping into their fanbase?

 

[Feej]

Hang on. You can buy a membership for a pet and it's counted in the total number of memberships??
Seriously??

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

Goldfish memberships

 

[parraparraparra]

can someone email nrl or clubs and ask if dog memberships count

 

[applesauce]

Broncos are over 17k according to a members email, but an exact figure has not been updated yet.
