These numbers demand so many explanations! Pets we count along with three gamers, juniors, etc! The only thing that matters are the full adult single season members. No concessions either. Then let's see who is on top. The media run these stories like the propaganda bs artists they are. What a load of rubbery rubbish these figures are! _________________ I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for. |

I wish they would publish membership revenue from those members. We would be a mile ahead of Hawthorn and Richmond. _________________ Magpies love pies(Lol) |

Richmond has been strutting around selling the message that it's now the biggest club in Vic.
Glorious. |

If we ever start winning again our membership should crash through the 100,000 mark. |

True, but all clubs pull the same stunts, so it's a level playing field. |

Best data manipulators in the business. If the figures are correct then there are a lot of pissed off members that don't attend each week. |

Membership numbers or not, we need to get more bums on seats in the Ponsford stand at the MCG on match days and that means getting back to playing winning football. |

What does this mean? |
