Storm are showing 41,108 on their membership tally for the year. Even with the give aways they did this year thats still a very impressive final number.
We had a record 10,728 paid Members join the Titans Legion in 2022, surpassing even our foundation tally in 2007.
With pre-season commencing on November 1, the men's squad will return from off season with a renewed focus on improvement for '23.
its pre underwhelming for a nrl club in a heartland areaView attachment 67644
Finally some numbers from the club. Over 10k- I don’t know how to really feel about this as a fan and a member…….
the heat should be on any club that isnt getting up around 20k members by now! We are supposed to be a top tier popular sport. How can you not have 20k people wanting to support you?Some of us here have said the heat should on GC not the Sydney clubs
Last year the NRL 'spent' $24.5mill in contra advertising! They should be ramming club membership down our throats, you shouldn't be able to watch, read or listen to Nine or News ltd media without constantly being encouraged to be a member of your club. Its no surprise the biggest membership growth was int he years the NRL marketed it and employed a team to sell them. Most clubs are useless at marketing!Only having 10k members in a market the GC's size simply isn't good enough.
The Raiders for example are already over 10k for 2023, and we're not a big club.
Maybe the NRL needs to step in at some of these clubs and give them some assistance to better market themselves, or give them a rap on the knuckles if needs be.
Titans will be fineSome of us here have said the heat should on GC not the Sydney clubs
Titans will be fine
focus on the juniors in the area and they will be fine
they are literally competing with a cashed up afl club which gets 30 million pa and a very favourable stadium deal
There’s a reason for thatThey are RL heartland with a population of 600k, They are a disgrace
There’s a reason for that
the failure of the coe playing a big part of it
then Jarryd Hayne ruined their rebuild
and I remember a time when the panthers were a rabble and people were saying gws were going to take over the west
That’s not fairPenrith had been around for 50 years even as a rabble
GC has had 3 versions go broke and this one is last in almost every metric
Panthers leagues club was days away from facing liquidation before Gus saved them with a loan from packerPenrith had been around for 50 years even as a rabble

The heat should be on any club that is underperforming…Some of us here have said the heat should on GC not the Sydney clubs
20k ticketed members.the heat should be on any club that isnt getting up around 20k members by now! We are supposed to be a top tier popular sport. How can you not have 20k people wanting to support you?
if they started making finals regularly I imagine that number would double very quickly....It

That doesn’t explain Tigers although I’m convinced Tigers fans are seriously catholic and supporting the Tigers is some for of self flagellation.if they started making finals regularly I imagine that number would double very quickly....
It's the first useful thing that Phil Gould has ever done in his life.Panthers leagues club was days away from facing liquidation before Gus saved them with a loan from packer
The NRL do a poor enough job on marketing as it is. They need to hire some professionals to assist.Maybe the NRL needs to step in at some of these clubs and give them some assistance to better market themselves, or give them a rap on the knuckles if needs be.
