2013 Memberships

[The Mad Hatter]

Mate, South Sydney have the largest and most widespread supporter base of any team in Rugby League. The major difference is when you were completely rubbish no one living more than 5 years from the ground could be arsed going to watch you.

If Souths had been as successful as Easts from the mid 90's you would have packed out the SFS every bleedin' week and would never have moved.

You are getting better crowds because you play better football, not because you relocated to Homebush. If you win a Premiership watch your membership base get even bigger.

Hear, hear.

Roosters @ 8297.

Players have been in te offices over the last week really pushing memberships. Plenty making calls to get people renewed.

Great idea. Go Roosters.

You guys want an idea of where people with out of town memberships are based (like when many give it to Souths).

Look at our international members Also very interesting to look at a map of Sydney dominated by Souths and Parra to the west, little tiny cluster of Roosters over Bondi Jnct. A lot of Souths members reside in the inner west I was surprised by the number.

THis is a brilliant concept - my wife and I just stuck our imprint on that map - love it.

Mate, Keep your valentine shenanigans to yourself.

What the hell is with the random Sea Eagle member in Iceland?! Who the hell moves to Iceland?!

Multiple Sea Eagles members in Kazakhstan? I think some are taking the piss.

Astana Sea Eagles, make it happen.

That map is an interesting idea, but it won't have much credibility while most suburbs only have 1 member.

Always thought the Broncos and North Korea would make a perfect fit, let's see it happen.

One's a closed society centred on a twisted cult of personality, the others North Korea........

It's a bit dodgy when you know that if 2 places have the same amount of members registering, and given that a lot of Souths supporters have got in first, that the team that got in first needs to be overtaken to lose it. So Souths may be equal in lots of these areas.

Souths must have been pushing there members to sign up to the site or something to have that sort of volume in this.

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

I think its a great concept. Spread that link people.

 

[papabear]

I think it's odd that the nrl doesn't just auto fill it in with the members suburbs they already have.

 

[East Coast Tiger]

I guess the idea is that they are trying to get people to sign up so they can influence their town/suburb.

It's clear that some clubs, LOL@etc, in particular have been promoting it to their members. Surely, even with their member numbers, there is no way they would be the most popular in some places on the map, ie places that are firmly in other clubs' territory.

But it would be interesting if the NRL got all the membership details and did fill it in so that we can really see where members are from.

Parra 12,013 with the fan day this Sunday, so the potential to add to that number.

 

[VictoryFC]

Claim your territory is absolutely brilliant.

Rabbits are our nations biggest club! Outnumber Storm down here in Melbourne too from the look of it.
