As of 10/02/2010


24,675
2,300 memberships in the past week.

Six weeks roughly until round 1 at that rate would have us around the 38k mark by then.

I really hope we beat Hawks. We'll probably sell 2,000 next week if we do. We are selling about 250 a day and if we can go far in the nab and have a big family day we'll be 45,000 before the bounce of the ball against Carlton  ;D. Then belt Carlton in front of 90,000 after Richo's lap of honour and we'll reach 50,000 by the opening bounce of our 2nd game

Got to agree there, WP.  I expected somthing branded with RFC or Tigers, but the cap, and the stickers, are branded, "Yellow and Black".  It's not a winner.

Someone should be asking marketing the hard question.

What were they thinking?

Still don't have mine yet. Though to be fair, they do have to send it all the way to North Richmond ;D

In November I purchased 3 memberships with 2 being reserved seats memberships.
Today in the mail I received:-
2 memberships, my sons didn't arrive
one reserved seat membership, one standard membership (I have a receipt that shows payment for  2 reserved seats).
And to rub salt in the wound, they have me as a first year member not 19 th year!

The one that really rankles is losing my reserved seat which I have had for 14 consecutive years and stuffn paid for nearly 3 months ago.

stuffn thanks Tiges!
It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

Have you contacted then about the seats?

If you renewed the seat by the cut off date then they have to give you that seat... I'd be contacting them

I got my normal membership 11 game + reserved seat today

I have to say the scarf is much better quality than the cap

I am still waiting for my Player Club memberships... who knows how long that will take :-\

Also haven't received the pet membership stuff either

yes, renewed before cut off (my wife got her seat and guess who paid for that at the same time!) and yes will see them tomorrow. They only arrived today and I discovered the cock up when I arrived home from
 work tonight.
