It might look but we are up on previous years at this time.

Im sure we'll go crazy with memberships very soon as people rush to get them before the real stuff starts.

We always start slowly because of no incentives.

Encouraging performance against the Saints + Family day on the 24th could = 500-1000 extra members.

Many of our supporters don't sign up until round 1. We always come with a late rush in terms of membership numbers. The main thing is we are roughly 5 to 6% up on last year's record figures.

"All levels of membership will classify you as a member of the club so you are counted in the membership total."
So going by that they do include non-ticketed memberships in their tally including their pets  :whistle

most other clubs have non ticketed included into the final tally unlike us who seperates them.

The Bombers today are claiming they have broken through the 30k mark and have the most members of the Vic clubs. Last year their figures dropped 5,000 from those on the Essendon site when the AFL published the official ticketed tally.

At Windy Hill they are still in stage 1 MT Head In the Sand so they won't be totally dropping off yet so therefore the arrogance has not departed yet. But it will....... :rollin

Interesting the Herald-Sun has combined our ticketed and non-ticketed figures as our total tally to fit in with the other clubs.

Quote
ESSENDON has claimed an early victory in season 2008 by becoming the first Victorian club to break the 30,000 member mark.

Other Victorian clubs doing well on the membership front include Hawthorn and Geelong, both of which are approaching 24,000, Richmond with more than 23,000, North Melbourne with 20,000 plus and St Kilda which recently passed 21,000.

Collingwood has signed around 28,000 members. Melbourne is trailing the competition with around 15,000 members.
