you are comparing something that has been a culture in AFL to something that is relatively new in RL.

He is also comparing a sport in its heartland to an expansion sport.

He is also comparing people in Sydneyfor both sports

Im am convinced you have a comprehension problem?

DOES NOT MATTER IF ITS HEARTLAND.

We are talking about the culture of 2 sports.

One sport has had a long history of Club memebership.
The other had membership of their Leagues club.

You cant compare it.

Yet you are gloating about winning a race you had yrs head start in ..

WTF is wrong with you mongs ,?.
You have No comprehension of anything.

the NRL has always had memberships, but never the fans to buy the memberships
the memberships for leagues clubs, is a condition of entry

What you RL people don't understand is that membership is only relatively new in the AFL it's only been in the last 20 yrs that memberships have been considered as all important by the clubs, it is NOW a culture that was built on the back of large club crowds attending regularly and a concerted effort to get clubs financially stable. It was a developed culture not an ingrained one - RL didn't care about memberships and just wanted clubs - they placed all their eggs in one basket - The truth is if RL had regular attendances of 20+ k crowds - 30k membership bases would be the norm and not the exception - until it gets people to come to the game instead of sitting on the lounge at home Bludging on the teams they claim to support - that won't change - RL is the culture of sitting on the lounge room couch!

I heard that the South melb members were about 10K.

On the Roar they are discussing this ( & they all seem to be AFL fans) .

Makes interesting reading..

these days? pretty much anyone who donates some money, most if not all clubs have ‘memberships’ which provide the member with nothing but the privilege of being called a member. It is definitely a watered down metric to go by these days.

Not saying Swans are any worse than any other club, they are all doing it, but at least 2 of those 3 I listed contained membership cards so I would assume they counted.

“If i rocked up to a game and bought just a entry ticket, i would not be a member.”

Correct but if you bought a supporter or cyggy membership (and possibly a pet membership, people have been accusing Collingwood as counting them for years) and never went to a game you would still be counted a member. Membership is no longer contingent upon having to attend a set number of games.

what about the supporter or baby memberships with no game entitlements? those seem to come with member items and membership cards with membership numbers

Love this post.

The real question is can the AFL Swans capitalize on their concessions to the same degree Brisbane did in the early 2000s?

They’ve been gifted two of the competition’s best forwards without having to trade a single player in return, so you’d think that coupled with their dream draw, charmed injury run and favorable MRP treatment there are absolutely zero excuses for the Swans NOT to win this year’s premiership. I just hope that if it does eventuate they pay sufficient tribute to the man who worked tirelessly for many years to make it happen – Andrew Demetriou.

Say it all .

If its on the Roar it must be true LOLOLOLOL

I thought swans was addressing your comment crapper ? Pet memberships aren't counted but junior ones are.

Also, cause a person on another forum says it's so doesn't mean it is. Could you imagine someone on the roar quoting dave from here lol. 6 dollar tickets, 1700 gws crowds, no one at all interested in AFL north of Murray ...

Say it all .

and that why the swans made 13.7 million in membership revenue last season?
if you take out 7 million in NRL distributions, thas more than what any worthless piece of shit NRL club has ever made in a season in football revenue
gee those pet memberships must really add up
