Steady she goes...

Yep, not bad considering RL people don't feel obligated to become members like the......ahem.......Melbourne centric folk. Myself being a point in case - I have barracked for the same team for decades but have never become a member - even after I moved to Sydney. I don't need bumper stickers and club key rings to prove my allegiances.

It aint a Melbourne thing champ, just look at the membership figures for the Swans, Eagles, Dockers, Crows and Power

He has a point there. Maybe just different cultures.

Its SIMPLE really..

THE AFL introduced Memberships for clubs way back in the 80's give or take..
and slowly took off getting more popular each year..

Looking at the stats of some of the AFL CLUBS they just keep thriving..

As we see with the NRL... On the membership front
were not as quick as the AFL and took pretty much well over 2 decades to switch on..

and seem to going at a steady pace ever since...

Congrats to the Giants cracking 20k members the other week. Huge achievement for the young club in "supposedly NRL heartland of the west"

I never realised there was so many dogs and cats in Sydney's West.

I think that was broken down somewhere.

Whatever it is it is more than it was 10 years ago. If you know what I mean.
