and then after smashing carlton(like round 1 last season)there will probably be even more wanting to buy a membership on the way out of the G after the game only to find that the membership tent and staff have packed up and buggered off by half time.Kahuna said:
i don`t understand why they do this,surely after a big win in front of a huge crowd would be the perfect time for people wanting to sign up,but believe it or not they do pack up and leave before half time.
I agree with you there, Mopsy. You would think that us Very Intellectual Richmond supporters/workers would be smarter than that. Maybe you should take over the membership reins?

Very good point there mopsy, worth mentioning to the club.
Let's just hope we win...otherwise :tumbleweed

to be fair i`m pretty sure most other clubs close theirs at half time too,i know in the richmond v collingwood game last season that both richmond and collingwood`s tents were both closed when i went outside at half time.
both tents were deserted,but our tent still had the generator running(which i turned off)and 2 tiger flags still attached to the tent(which were both pinched while i was there,not by me by the way).
i just shook my head and thought typical bloody richmond,sloppy and unprofessional.
that`s probably a bit over the top considering it was only a couple of flags left there and a generator running but it`s just what i thought at the time, it was just after watching collingwood humiliate us in the first half which followed the disastrous 2007 wooden spoon which followed the spoon in 2004 and that followed only 2 finals series in 25 years and..... you get my drift.
if i was in the membership department that`s one thing i would definitely do,make sure there are some tables or a tent where you can buy memberships straight after a win.
it seems like the membership department are either too set and rigid in their ways and/or aren`t that passionate about the club.
think i may send a message to one k.sheedy,he`ll certainly stir em up.
Just looking at the comparisons over the past few seasons between now and the season commencing. We sell somewhere in the vicinity of 6000 to 10000 ticketed memberships in this period. Given a good start to the NAB and the Cuz factor we should break our previous membership record at about round 1 of this season.
Iam guessing that our membership will be around 33-34k ticketed this year.

That's not enough Tommy.
FFS, with all the publicity we got over cuz and the strong 2nd half of last year Richmond supporters need to pull their bloody fingers out and buy a membership.
We should always be where those other 3 mongrel clubs are, i.e. over 40,000 every year!
You're right TJ but the problem that the RFC has is the chronic lack of any type of success. Richmond are lucky that they have real supporters that continue to put their hands in their pockets and still set membership records every year even though we have been absolute rubbish on and off the field for nigh on 30 years. 2 finals series :tigerjoe said:
. A whole generation of Richmond fans have never experienced the thrill of a real tilt at a premiership. The sleeping Tigers have heard it all before but are yet to see it come to fruition. When we actually make the finals consistently and not by default or pure dumb luck then we may see 40000k.

Yep thats massive TT, i posted 1 week ago the below figures and to have an increase of about 3,600 members is quite large...I know the AFL members had their cut off day as Jan 31st with 2 weeks leeway to get all forms in so basically the last day of mail would've been yesterday 16/2....I called the AFL a few weeks back and they said they will give a 2 week leeway for people to put their paid forms in....My group of 10, 6 of them just put their forms in to the AFL in early Feb so as to not have to pay an extra $20...Im guessing this helped sway the numbers somewhat which is pleasing....A win against the pies will definitely continue to help the membership numbers....
Match-Day - 21,479
Non Match-Day - 5,999
As of 9 Feb 09'
Honestly 1st time Ive been happy with our membership numbers.....35k well in range with a good start....could we push 40ktassie_tiger said:

Thats fantastic, but can anyone answer why our category of non-ticketed or non-match day is double and also triple compared to some teams?
Where did u get the bombers figures, they're with doubt the most deceptive club in the land when it comes to membership figures...
Tiger74 said:
yeah i know our membership perhaps both match day and non-match day have increased in WA...actual membership meaning "match day" is about 1,000 in WA, gets u into games...but we've always had high "non-matchday members also", last years was about 8 or 9 thousand....
I was just curious as when u look at the table by far we are higher, double of pies, bombers, blues, hawks etc
