Win tonight and we should go close to breaking the 50k heading into the home game against Hawthorn next week. The paper today says we are about to start selling 3-game memberships to boost the tally.

They've been selling them already, I guess they are going to promote them more.

Agree

They certainly have been selling them

Though I still reckon they need a membership that caters for people who simply cannot get to games and sorry RFC the 3 game membership just doesn't cut it.

There are people (like the elderly in nursing homes) who cannot under any circumstances get to games. What does the club offer these folks? Sweet FA it seems  :banghead

We seem to be the only club who don't offer a membership for that category of supporter. Why?

I have had a membership now for 12 years and have probably been to 20 games in that period of time. I keep buying my membership to support the club and not try to get every cent back just because I brought a membership. I know a ton of people in the same boat, if you a passionate supporter who wants to support the club any way they can you will find they will buy a membership regardless.....

If you can afford it I agree with you 100% but some people cannot afford $85 a year for the Tiger Insider membership which is the cheapest one on offer (this is our 3 game m'ship BTW)

Why can't they offer something for $40 or $50 that gives you no access to games but let's you be a member.  That's what i am talking about the Club doesn't cater for these people

Isn't it about getting as many members as they can?

We had 49,027 as per the club's website on Friday

ALF web-site saying a nice rounded up number of 49,100

Whatever it is we'll get the 50k and that's the main thing

Lol, sheesh wp anymore brilliant ideas of course a 3 game membership would be no good for the infirmed ,  :lol lets not try and fit a sq peg in a round hole. Perhaps they could be support packages that would entitle digital membership et al

WP, i bought my young bloke a Cotchy's Cub membership, which i think cost about 80 bucks, yet he can't use his card to get in. A mate of mine did the same, the card has no bar code. My other son is a saints supporter (and about to become homeless ;D) and i bought him a Rooeys Club membersip and he gets in.  Is there a membership for juniors that includes admission?

I think he will return Ramps. I took him to the family day before the Sydney game and he felt so out of place he asked for my scarf. I have taken to a couple of Richmond games and he accidently found himself cheering for us. His mates at school turned him on to the saints. It breaks my heart :'(

Tried all that Mrakov, i have been explaining how Nick Riewoldt cries all the time, Stephen Milne is a tip rat and that the saints are going down whilst we are going up. I'll get him back on board!
