2005 Membership

[letsgetiton!]

Richmond Membership Tally
Ticketed - 21,853
Non-ticketed - 5,218 members as of COB 16/03/05
combined - 27,071

Carlton: 22,829
Geelong: 21,595.
Hawthorn: ~21,500
North: 15,765
Melbourne: >14,500
Bulldogs: 15,938
Saints:24,500


looking at these figures, im not sure if th eother clubs are combining ticketed and n/ticketed members in their tallies.
we know that last year we did , so based on that we have already matched last years memberships. according to th efooty show last night the tigers and th ebombers had the best responce to the membership dial a thon, so our figures will only improve.
another imp note, we have passed geelong with ticketed memberships no doubt and they had a successful 2004, we are close and maybe passed the saints also, and looks like we are matching th eblues who won the fiz cup!

30,000 plus members are not out of reach 4 us, coming off a wooden spoon thats fantastic, a win against geelong in rd 1 and hawthorn, bulldogs and freo in rnd 2,3,and 4 would give tw , the team and the club a dream start and will for sure get the members up!
rnd 1-4 are winable games!

lets eat em alive tigers!

Well after our effort this weekend I'm expecting our Club to break membership sales records


Will we even get to 27,000? the club must be worried because if we dont we will make another loss at years end.

Must of sold a few prior to Sunday's game - which is common in round 1

24,292 Ticketed

5,459 Non Ticketed

I think that it is a pretty good total for this time of year considering that there hasnt been much on offer to entice people to join i.e on field success.

if we can equal last season and develop more youngsters then we may be able to get 30,000 next year.

Not far away from the same number this time last year. Trent Jacobs on club corner said the "stripes" campaign of recognising and rewarding long-term membership was helping with retaining members. Think he said last year was a record or near to one. We need everyone to keep the faith and treat their membership over the next couple of years as an investment in the future of our young cubs while we rebuild and then work our way back to the top.

our membership is fine atm, did u know that the other clubs memberships tally on their websites include non ticketed members! if u combine our 2 we are doing extremli well and just about 30000 members!
i rang geelong, carlton, hawthorn , roos, pies and dogs and they said their figures combine both membership types. the saints reckon they dont have non ticketed memb packages, i dont believe them

The main thing is $ coming into the club whichever way clubs manipulate the membership figures. There's no question about the loyalty of Tiger fans after 25 years of being crap but funnily enough supporters of these clubs that have had sudden rises in memberships since they started winning games claim we are bandwagoners  .

The Saints might not be telling fibs as even their international membersip gets you into 5 games.

Please enlighten me!!

Where do the AFL members who nominate Richmond as their club fit in to the equation?

Hopefully a few more will jump aboard this week after our win.

i j spoke top greg miller yesterday re the membership figures, r.he agreed with us that its not right that other clubs are combining both types of memberships in their figures and he has discussed it with management at the club and may bring it up with the afl.  if we do as other clubs do we have 30k plus members already
