Mine too, they get far too much money out of me.  I have a 17 game membership, a player sponsorship, I am going to the season launch, I go to the B & F and I am a Club80 member, sometimes I think I have rocks in my head.

Its time for everyone to buy a 2nd membership and if people cant afford it atleast try and double up on an unticketed membership- only costs about 80

Sorry Ramps the Powell family "well" is empty


Yep, mine too Ramps.  I figure the $75 grand final guarantee is a good substitute and as MT said - it's all about revenue - so I figure I've done my bit, even if my extra doesn't count towards the membership figure.

Port Power have come up with an interesting little marketing ploy.

Haven't got my Players' Club membership yet but my 2 cats have got their gold memberships.

I haven't either and I must say I am mighty peeved about it. Charge an extra $500, take away some of the benefits .... the least they can do is get it out early  :-\

We have recieved everything else - just waiting on Players Club  ::)

Yeah, toots was the poster who posted this on big footy. Nifty little gimmick though.

I agree RFC, the scarf is pearler! I am a country supporter and everyone thinks i am mad to be a member as i work and play footy on the weekends and never use the benefits that memberships provide! But i explain to them that membership is a donation not a money saving action.

I'm surprised of the criticism of the caps.  My bronze cap is what I expected I'd get.

My issue with the cap is the quality and finish of it is pathetic.

Perhaps you've got a good one tigersalive but I can tell you the one received in our household is woeful. It certainly wont be warn in public  :-\ >:( ;D

I know they are massed produced and that is part of the problem but gee can we ge tthe basics right please  >:(

Here's just a couple of things wrong with ours:

1/ The stitching on the peek is all over the place which has resulted in the material not lining up where it should. Where the black should run it is yellow in some places then black in others

2/ It is lop sided  - what I mean there is when you wear it the right hand side is longer than the left hand side.

3/ The stitching on one side is crookied and it stands out because there is black stictching where it should be yellow (on the yellow side panel).

Sorry but it isn't good enough...

Just had another look at mine given your comments and it's fine.

No sign of any of the problems you have detailed.

Next time you are down at the club take it in and ask for a new one.

Maybe WP's cap was 'personally' selected.  Done anything to upset anyone down there lately WP?   ;D
