That's a good result on the back of yet another spoon.

Tiger supporters keep turning out in hope that we'll turn it around. :thumbsup

Other clubs like Hawthorn and Carlton had massive drop offs after finishing down the bottom (15th, 16th). Looks like at this stage we'll hold onto our 30k. So much for being called bandwagoners.

One or two promising performances in the NAB cup might boost things a little as well.

bandwagons are you serious. thats one thing no one would dare call me that.

through good times and bad we have remained. i wonder about these blues supporters and even hawks were they were years ago, especially the hawks.
well well well havent they come out of the wood work.
wait for round 1 80,000 plus for tigers/blues. where were all those blues last year. pathetic

How many of those are North supporters though? There'll be lots of people from other clubs who have joined up out of sympathy. What happens next year when North aren't in the news.

As for us, we usually have our main rush on memberships in the month leading up to round 1. We may be behind North now but compared to previous years at this time of year we have record numbers. We're about 500 ahead of last year's figures when we passed 30k.

I appreciate where we are trackng MT but it is depressing when one works with dilluded North supporters who are in my face about their membership numbers.

Irony is of course they aren't members themselves  :whistle

Don't be down on someone just because they aren't a member.  Among any number of possible personal reasons there are many people who just plain can't afford it.  Doesn't mean they aren't just as vocal, loyal, knowledgeable or important.  Practice some tolerance Daniel and it will come back to you in spades.  :shh
