It's still November 2014 - membership figures for next season mean f**k all at the moment because there is still heaps of time to sign supporters up as members. Come round 1 and we still have more members than they do gloat away. At the moment you're just a f**kwit

I'll gloat about what I like when I like mate, I don't need your permission or guidance as to when I'll do so.

Sidebar: we just cracked 9,000.

Something I've heard mentioned that is interesting. Membership has grown strongly but crowds are not growing. So revenue is actually going down. Because what is mostly happening is existing fans are saving money on memberships. It's not bringing in new fans.

Marketing needs to be focused on new fans.

congratulations you are capable of reading a two day old daily telegraph article. I can see why you are such a guru in the rumored signings thread.

Titans really need to find a decent marketing manager to re engage with the GC community. I'm still befuddled by the Warriors incompetence at connecting with the biggest fanbase in the RL world.

It might be a cultural thing, being a "member" might not have the cache that it has in Australia. I understand that there jerseys sell like hotcakes so there is certainly some engagement there.

Especially when there is literally only one club in the whole country, whereas identifying yourself as supporter of a club in Australia means a lot more distinction.

This is pure speculation on my part.

Well, it was only a few years ago when the line was, "...membership just isnt a part of the Sydney culture".

Not it seems to be going pretty well here....

Maybe, but its probably more likely due to not having a non ticketed membership, not having memberships based around the cities outside of Auckland they play in (their games at nib draw 6000+ kiwi fans easy yet no WA membership available). There "away memberships" suck. If I was a warriors fan in Sydney I want a membership to go to all games not just one. They are probably the only RL club in the world that could have more members outside their home city than in it!

Also their pricing for the quality of their stadium. $32 a game to sit uncovered in a city where it is usually raining and cold. Thats some deal!

Finally their marketing is amateurish, you click on the premium membership details and it gives you details for the cheapest membership!

the missing numbers makes it hard.

but around 20% growth give or take a few.

not bad, draw should give it a nice boost. I think it came out a week or so earlier last year.

Souths now at 24,013.

I am very happy with that.

If the Dogs have as some say biggest supporter base. WHY DON'T THEY SIGN UP AS MEMBERS???

It is very very poor Dogs fans. Zero excuses. Can get to games but not sign up to the club.

Definitely not one of the most passionate. I would call it FAKE PASSION.
