2009 Membership - "Total Tiger"

[mightytiges]

They must have been mostly West Australians signing up lately as the matchday membership increased by only 200 yet the non-ticketed was up by over a thousand  ???.

Well done Tiges

aaaaaaso in tound figures we are 3,000 ahead of last year ticketed and 4,000 in total.

35,000 and 45,000 respectively are realisable goals.

I wish they would hurry up sending my membership considering my credit card was charged one month ago.

In 2 days it will be a month for me too.

Can't believe it's almost been a month since Xmas.

a good nab cup campaign and a win vs carlton in r1 and we should breach 40,000 fully ticketed and about 10,000 non ticketed, i can see a combined 50,000 membership by mid april.

Golden Girl sticks with Ben
By Chris de Kretser and Daryl Timms

GIVING Ben Cousins a second chance has led to Betty Cuthbert becoming a Richmond member.

Cuthbert, a devout Christian, lives in Perth but decided to join the Tigers after the club drafted Cousins.

The Golden Girl of Australian athletics, Cuthbert won three gold medals at the 1956 Melbourne Olympics and 400m gold at Tokyo in 1964.

Confined to a wheelchair because of multiple sclerosis, Cuthbert is a disillusioned former West Coast supporter.

Just a quick question - Is the country/interstate 5 membership classed by the AFL as ticketed while the MCC Tigers and tiger insider are non-ticketed?

Yes. 

MCC Tigers & Tiger Insider are the only 2 RFC memberships which are non-ticketed.

Country/Interstate5 doesn't qualify as ticketed but is sanctioned as ticketed by the AFL.

So a $76 Tiger Insider membership isn't included in our membership stats by the AFL yet a $36 junior membership is  ???. And a $125 MCC Tiger membership isn't included but a $120 Country/Interstate5 is  ???. Well that all make sense  .

[Fishfinger]

It's based on entry to games so I can understand why the MCC Tigers is not ticketed (3 home games at TD in Axcess One seating).

I don't have a problem with the concept of ticketed (access to finals tickets) having a set criteria (entry to more than 5 games). Very puzzled as to why there are exceptions at the AFL's whim, though.
Why have a criteria?  ???

My main gripe is no secret. I will never understand how the AFL can just not count some club memberships.
