my new tip for the final membership number 55,441

That's about right

Any latest thoughts here gents?
Higher or lower than your original estimates?
On track for 61k+ now. I'll go 61,374.

If we beat the cheats round 1. Then beat the 2 bottom feeders we'll be 3-0 going into the pies match.
Beat the pies and well easily have 65000 members this year.

If we lose to the cheats then we won't make 60000 this year.

....that's what I reckon anyway.

Dang if we had the same success as the other big Melb based clubs over the last 30 years then we would have a hundred thousand screaming members

You may be right but it also depends on the loss.
A loss like 2009 and kiss it goodbye but a loss in a tight game and whilst there will be heartache being the scum we lost to all will not be lost.

A win though is absolutely imperative regardless.
Win at all costs Tigers.

I'm hoping we spoil their party.

Can we bridge the gap on the Hawks?

Us:     44,630
Them: 50,625

A gain of approx. 300 in the past two days. If that gain of 150 per day were to hold through until mid April we'd catch up to them.
We were 10k behind them at the beginning of last month. 
Now only 6k.
Win round 1 and we'll catch 'em.

While losing close games last year was annoying, it at least showed we have now become competitive each and every week. Something that wasn't the case for a long long time before 2012. With that new competitiveness and then adding more depth to our playing stocks this year, it says to those thinking about buying memberships that you will finally get your monies worth hopping aboard the Tiggy train. Add to that the success of the FTF which showed if all us Tiger supporters pulled together and contributed financially to the Club no matter how big or small then collectively we can make a difference. The positive change off-field is obvious with the new elite facilities etc and now we wait for the final piece of the puzzle to come together onfield which we all hope begins this season. Once that kicks in then the rest of the comp. won't know what hit it. The momentum building up will be unstoppable.

Kudos to the Club regarding this year's Members Caps - best quality they've ever been and they look great  :clapping :thumbsup


Pity I can't say the same about the sticker that obviously isnt' copng with the heat, seems to have had sunburn and is now peeling (the gloss plastic bit)  ;D
