Good post anon
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

A post from AstuteTiger on BF about access/non-access memberships and what the AFL counts as ticketed in their "official" figures.

"I posted during the year so ill reiterate for the tigers non ticketed/access, we had over 7,000 but they were "Baby Tiger & Tiger Cubs Club", real people but under 6 yrs old memberships and U6's get in for free anyway....to have it included in the ticketed figures we needed to pay $7 a barcode most clubs hawks, pies etc do this we didnt to save 50K, ive had lengthy discussions with our membership dept on this subject and also spoken to the AFL that if someone joining up is a "human being" they should b included "barcode or not" cause U6's get in for free anyway...I also stated as an example to further highlight my point that if both Collingwood and Richmond have 7,000 U6 kids members but collingwood pay the $7 for the barcode to appear on the membership card and richmomd dont its grossly unfair that our figure isnt recognized as match-day when in reality the person joining is a real person and has entry for free anyway as being U6....the AFL membership operator agreed with my sentiments and said they would look into this anomaly further which im sure they have by now....

On a side note to kriso182; Our Tiger Insider changed in 2011 to include access 3 games

Changes for 2012: For those who have been wondering about the different methods of counting memberships- the AFL have made some changes to how they are reported. Access and non-access membership numbers will now be rolled up into one consolidated membership which means that the number we report will be identical to the number that the AFL report."

Apparently the company that was hired to make sure all membership purchased prior to December 1st were delivered by mail before Christmas didn't keep up their side of the agreement as promised. So it's not really the fault of the RFC membership dept. I'm guessing the Club will find some other mailing firm next year so this doesn't happen again.

The Club is on holidays until Jan 4 so MadTiger I would doubt 4000 people will join up via the net over the Christmas/New Year's break.

Well actually it is their fault, they hired the mail out company  ;D

Seems to be a common problem though.

There are always people across all the sites complaining about Fighting Tiger or Membership or Merchandise delays.
Who isn't a fan of the thinking man's orange Tim Fleming?

Gerks 27/6/11

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

How do you know?

From an article today

Membership
Richmond is targeting 50,000 members in 2012 (it fell just short of that figure in 2011), and has gone with 'Roar Pride, Roar Passion, Roar Power' as its slogan. The positive vibe around the club has already translated into a good couple of months for the membership department, with almost 29,000 fans signing up so far.
