14k clear of same time last year and 7k clear of last year's all time record total.

EIGHT teams cracked 20k, with two more *very* close.

Penrith cracked 20K awhile back see roofromoz post

Who becomes a member this far into the season?

Clubs are flogging specialised memberships at this point, final three etc

Penrith cracked 20K awhile back see roofromoz post

If they updated their counter properly I'd update it properly ‍

How did Souths have more memberships this time last year than they had at the end of last year?

Yeah true, a couple of clubs have not updated their tally in over a month. Penrith have always been poor with this.

They've been on the decline since winning their 21st premiership.

No I meant mathematically it doesn't make sense. According to the post, they had more members during the season and somehow lost members before the end of the same season.

 

[cain3y]

Yeah now i see , you have eagle eyes on. didn't pick it until you spotted it.

Hopefully next year, the Dogs, Knights and Warriors can join them so we have 12 teams on +20K.

In the longer term, i definitely think there is enough dormant RL support in SEQld for the Titans to hit 20K, if they can just get a bit of success and connect with the local community.

As for the Sharks, Sea Eagles and Roosters, im not holding my breathe.

The numbers taken for the "same day last year" were taken direct from club websites on the date mentioned.

The fact the audited final figure was less is probably the troubling fact more than anything else...

The 2017 "Final" numbers in your graph aren't correct - in 2017 we had a total of 30,549 members.

I'll pretend you weren't deliberately trying to undermine the figures by applying quotation marks to the term Final.

For reference, all sixteen figures I've used come directly from the NRL's 2017 Annual Report. You'll find them on page 66 in section 3 of the report. As they're a central repository, I'll stick with them (although there's what, 300 diff?).

Also you're supposed to link to documents when referring to them, here's yours for you.

They died before season end.

Can someone put a shaft up the person responsible at Penrith ,for the membership number on their site?
It looks amateurish, when their actual membership is well over their figure.

Pass the salt!

Pass the salt!

What salt?

I'm just not going to use your figures, your loss - not mine.
