  • I'm one.

    So are my daughter, son and dog.

    16K members!! Well done marketing and administration. Who would have thought our club would ever have 16K members?

    Chook.

    I was thinking that 20k wasn't out of the question at the beginning of the year due to all the silverware, but 16k is decent I guess.

      17K by the end of the year would be the goal.

      That is good when compared to where we have come from, yet terrible when put in comparison to some AFL clubs.

        Very valid point. But as Roy Masters used to say, Sydneysiders have much more to do than their counterparts in Victoria.

        AFL in Victoria is the life and blood down there for some people. Quite simply some Collingwood (the equivalent of Souffs) supporters have no life apart from their beloved black & white. This is what they live for and Eddie McGuire is at the top of the tree - read in to that what you may!

            I have 2 memberships myself and signed up a work colleague for the Chic membership yesterday so she can attend the function with me for the Canberra game. When I took the pack into work today, so many people crowded around her desk to look at how professional everything was. The Manly fans in particular were spitting chips when they saw the celebratory champagne glasses...lol..another girl wants me to get a membership for her husband (not a Chic one obviously) so I'm taking the membership brochure into work tomorrow.

              My sister always told me it was safe to travel on the trams the day after a Collingwood loss. They never leave their homes because they go into hiding to sulk..

                It's amazing that Adelaide have 103,000 members between both clubs in the AFL when their population is only 1million.

                  They were always afl made, because no other sport is played there during their season. They don't have rugby league or rugby union, soccer and cricket and nbl are played over the summer.

                          16k is pretty good. Don't forget that a large number of the SFS members are Rooster supporters so conservatviely you say there would be at least another 2k if the SFS membership didn't exist...conservatively.

                          Also, we shouldn't get too hung up on the AFL numbers. They are years ahead of us in terms of pushing memberships...we (the game as a whole) haven't even scratched the surface yet.

                              I'm not sure how 'conservative' you're being there, but it's an interesting idea anyway.

                              I wonder whether Easts could mine the SCG Trust database and offer mad deals for anyone who wants to be a member of both.
