2019 Membership

[bileduct]

Bulldogs, Raiders, Cowboys, Dragons, all concerning, Panthers too (although no counter update).

Raiders members number spiked massively because of an unusually successful 2016 season. They're almost back to normal now.

What’s happened to the dogs, I thought it was the bulldogs, parra , Souths and the dragons with the biggest Sydney followings ?.

I am very surprised by those Bulldogs numbers. I thought their popularity was just behind Parra.

Lots of dogs supporters have moved to Queensland lol

This time of year is surprisingly quiet for updates on member numbers and unsurprisingly that means we're still behind last year. The disappointing ones remain - IMO - the Bulldogs and Roosters. Most other clubs are roughly in line with expectation. Penrith are likely more than the figure posted above, given their counter hasn't updated since early Feb.

Notice Titans haven't done a bleeding thing for yonks, surely the've picked up a few hundred since middle January.
Tigers no update for nearly a fortnight.Also Dragons and Raiders disappointing at this stage.We really should be at least 2% up on 2018.
Without Warriors and Knights we'd be in sh*tter's ditch.
If memberships are down this year,Sloth will have his usual negative field day.

Warriors are killing it this year

I hope it translates into crowds

Pretty good effort considering their off season wasn’t exactly ideal with the SJ affair. Still, none of the players had a video released of them tag-teaming an ex players daughter, so they’re doing better than most I guess....

 

[morley101]

Roosters 13213.....

 

[Irish-bulldog]

Bulldogs up to 13,176

Broncos 31,021

Broncos 31,021

So they should be with a city of over 2 million to themselves!

Biggest club in the game and..... they're not from Sydney

Mathematics might help you in this one!?Then again your mathematics has failed you before!

To you!? Are you serious!? There are over 2 million people in Brisbane! The Broncos should have minimum 50000 members. THE NINE TEAMS FROM Gosford to Wollongong (including Sydney ) have well over 6million to draw membership. Mathematically 6 million divided by 9 is roughly 660000 per club. Mind you these figures would be greater with the massive number you refuse to acknowledge that exist outside of their locality. There are clubs in the NRL with cities/areas : Newcastle/Canberra etc) having far less than 660000 to draw locally from .The Broncos are underachieving. A second Brisbane club additional to the current clubs is a must do! But we have a greedy Broncos administration stopping this at every turn. Go figure!

I have to congratulate you, this is the first time you've actually attempted a response without resorting to catch phrases.

We don't disagree on the Broncos by the way. They are the game's biggest club but they should be bigger given their market. Killing the BRL in the 80's followed by leading the SL charge in the 90's turned away so many RL fans in this city that should be Broncos fans but follow other teams instead. A second club here is desperately needed and will be very well supported if done correctly.

Finally something right! Well done!
