Still a very impressive number given how long we have been in the doldrums. Fourth best membership figure must be scary to the other clubs. We can only go up with a little success! :thumbsup

Hawthorn can't get more than 60k.. Even if they win the flag they will get 60k next year. If we make finals next year I reckon we will get 61-63k.

Can Richmond get to 60,000 next year? Will we get their legitimately or will we do a Hawthorn and sign up all living creatures who walk on 4 legs or reside in the animal big house known as the Royal Melbourne Zoo. Benny Gale needs to fire up! He needs to use all marketing means at his disposal. He needs to pamphlet drop the animals at the zoo and get them to change their minds and join the Tiges.  ;D

60k is the goal
We targeted 50k this year and got 53k. So I'm guessing while we'll target 60k next year, the Club will be hoping for say 63k and then in 2014 have a target of 70k hoping to actually push up to the 75k in line with the 3-0-75 plan. Need a good start next year with finals looking a near certainty throughout the season for any of that to happen IMO. To get to 70k in 2014 we'll need to look like genuine contenders so all the bandwagoners and those who have been burnt by false dawns believe again and sign up.

The "3" part was always the most overtly optimistic (ie. deluded  :whistle) part of the plan. With our current list no way were we going to make finals this year. The top liners are very good but as we all know we have no depth with utter spuds at the bottom end. The "0" debt by 2014 and 75k members is genuinely possible provided we make finals next year and back it up with a top 4 finish in 2014.

no way were we going to make finals?
if our defense and forward line were both 1 goal a week better we wouldnt be far off top 4.

When you look at some of the game we dropped, we should be gearing up for our first finals appearance in yonks.

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
