Carlton's will jump as the summer progresses. The toffee noses that follow the Blues are waiting until the lists are settled before making their decision, just to be the smart arses they are!

Good to see Port already in five figures. One assumes once the Crows becomes available they'll be ahead of the Power. Collingwood and Geelong of course will be in five figures as well.

Memberships don't start in earnest until the New Year.

A membership update for NSW and QLD.

Sydney now has 12,014 members

GWS have hit 3,000

Brisbane 11,094

Gold Coast 8,138

Excellent numbers for the Lions and the Suns this side of Christmas.

I'm still waiting to see what the numbers are at Collingwood.

I hear the Pies are predicting 80,000 members. My god, that is amazing if true.
