Richmond Membership 2017 --- "Eat 'Em Alive"

[FlashGordon]

Only 1k down given how horrible to watch we were. People must believe in Balme or Caddy and Prestia.

the brains trust understand that after believing pipe dreams and poo for the last 7 years, they can sell anything to the people.
Just like they glossed over our "successful" loss of pick 6 and then "securing" a soon to be dud in Caddy.  I mean do you really think the Cats would have let him slip out of town if they were really wanting him to stay?
His his inclusion to the team went hand in hand in their recent demise and they even included Danger and they still fell over.   Are we that stupid still?
We havent changed the culture at all. Under this regime there has been a "token" rebuild and then everything else has been looking for recycled players and then backing it up with off season propaganda to keep the punters hopeful.  They are now giving us daily updates on our pick 26 and a rookie pick and once again the punters think we have aced it because they look good at training, 
Lets take stock. We have stumbled and bu,bled our way through drafts with a raft of duds being selected unless they were pick 1,2 or 3 and now the same people have grown a brain? lmaoooo....

Make no mistake, the majority of the stayers are the newbies who jumped on and think we are on the cusp and want to stick. I know many long time members who are over the whole thing, tigers and footy that is.

"securing" a soon to be dud in Caddy. 

Near identical stats to Deledio's in his 2015 AA year. So did we do well getting some decent picks for a dud who is struggling with injury?

Do these long timers fill their time by ranting on forums?

I know a lot of long time members too. They stick with the club through thick and thin and realise the RFC is more than just Peggy, Benny, Dimma etc etc.
That's why they ARE long time members. They realise that the club still needs their support. They don't want to behave like a spoilt brat a chuck a hissy fit because they disagree the way the club is run. Those in charge come and go but the RFC will always be there if supporters remain loyal.

really?

We have one of the lowest "churn" rates in the AFL regarding long term members

The majority is not long termers jumping off but the newbies; those who've been around 5 years or less

After 30 years of stupidity you would think it aint a spoilt brat thing man.  How ridiculous you sound.  I would even go as far as to say we are bordering on sounding like poor old Fitzroy supporters who bring up stuff that happened 48,000 years ago to make them feel some kind of connection to current footy.

As for it being more than a Benny , Peggy , Dimma thing, yeah, but you might want to tell those megalomaniacs that as well.

Downgrading your membership isnt walking away

Instead of blowing hot wind out of your rear, why don't you back up your statements with facts? For all you know there maybe more full members than 3 game ones compared to last year. Unless you can back you statements with fact then you are only guessing. That's an opinion then that means nothing.
FWIW, I don't claim to know what is happening with club memberships overall. All I know is numbers are close to last year.
So before you start spouting baseless statements ring the club and get some facts before you post.
