Yeah the Bunnies have done really well both in sponsorships (which Russell helps with inordinately) and memberships. They have built a great community program up and it is now up and running, predominantly for Aboriginal and inner city kids (which are usually lower income) and this generates enormous good will, as it should, and therefore income.

Oh you're right my friend, but I would miss the beach and the sun and that kind of stuff ;):P !!!

Last time I checked we're in dire need of rain (for the last 10 years), yet you've had plenty of it up there.....any chance we can swap the weather and let us have all the rain?? :D

As of today 26, 492.

Wow. Stigga you're sensational. It's like groundhog day with you. aka Bill Murray.... . Giving the latest updates and all. :lol:

 
Well we did ours a little while ago, and we also signed up my Essendon supporting brother and his Sydney supporting girlfriend......

I signed up my partner who is a tiger fan and member of 20 years, she wont openly admit it but she does enjoy seeing the red and blue comeback

Also got seats for us both on the wing just behind the bench in M50 area cant wait

Another 530 joined up yesterday, which is apparently a club record, plus we beat Collingwood (which is always a handy bonus :D)

We're now sitting on 27,128. Not long to go now!

Also it was great to see players getting involved. Both Belly and Blease (who was busy sending a text ;)) were standing at the scarf table when we went up to collect our scarves, which I thought was a nice touch.


You don't WIN the SPOON!!! It's not an award to be proud of!!! :angry:

Jack Watts. I feel we may need another win this year as well

27,128 is a very good total. It's great they we are a head of some other clubs. If somehow we manage to beat the pies i'm sure it will go up even more. Keep it up

 

Over 27K, great to see. Hopefully over 29K after the Collingwood clash.


this is a fair effort really, it's gone up since sundays game, so, well done to the new members and if your not a member, get in there and support the club!

I had a quick chat to Stef when I was buying my membership. It was great by the club to have the players there, accessable... Even if like Stef, they were kind of shy...

Tell me something Fellow Fanatics. I had Famly issues on sunday & could not get to the game (plus all cabs were in albert park!) Out of the 28,000 people at the game what was the crowd Ratio Us & them?

If there were 10,000 Roos fans there I'd be very surprised, very.

Loads of kids there too!

Judging by the boos or cheers when free kicks were awarded - I would say significantly more us than them!

This is why i say North Cannot Survive more than 5 years. Beautiful Day Round 1 Last Year top 4. Wayne Carey Comes Home....etc etc & they still pull less than 10,000. to the 'G

That is pathetic & they must be concerned. It's a major concern.

2 new clubs in 2 years makes it that much harder to win a flag.

They made the Finals last year & cannot get anyone to the Home of Football on a cracker sunny day. Bye Bye North, off to TEAC oval time.

While there were long and deep queues at the MFC membership tents at Gate 3 or 4, you could walk right up to the NM desk and buy a membership straight away.

I reckon their future is dim and has always been so despite some people getting carried away with a one year membership spike.

Decisions have to be made because what are there attendances going to be like on a cold wet Day?? Elsternwick Park gets more people than North.

We were lucky Stynesy & co seems to have given us the new lease. But for North it looks Bleak. We should have beaten them too!! Grrrr

I think thats pretty rich mate.

I mean lets face it, MFC really isnt that far behind.

MFC just got great new sponsors, got Jack Watts, heaps of debuts, reducing the debt, etc etc and we couldn't even pull 30,000 to the G, R1 on a beautiful day.

The Kangas have 24K odd members, and thats pretty much all they have!!!

I think were the ones that should be a little concerned.


c'mon guys...lets get ourselves out of debt before we start to point the finger.

even though we had more than the roos, we wouldve hoped for more than mebourne supporters at the G than that. 28,000 is embaressing for two victorian clubs.

Hey They Made Top 4 Last year-we got the spoon & they cannot pull a crowd. WHY & how are they going to change it $ 40+- Mill goes through an AFL club per year now.

I am not saying we are in the clear but North are in trouble.

If they ever bottom out they won't come back.

Not when a 100,000 people were watching an International Grand Prix at 5pm it wasn't. I thought we did alright. The AFL gave that to us on purpose.

 

It was a terrible effort from the Roos fans yesterday, we easily out numbered and that's saying something. Also noticed that the cheersquad was back where it belonged on the wing, and behind the goals is a different membership group? Looked a hell of a lot better.

North Melbourne supporters were dwarfed by Melbourne supporters on Sunday. Not just outnumbered, but comprehensively dwarfed. By Melbourne supporters. I'm not exaggerating at all when I say that I have never been to a game in Melbourne, against a Victorian side, where we so clearly outnumbered opposition supporters. Sydney draw larger crowds than that in Victoria, and even Brisbane arent that far behind when they're playing well. It was sick.

I have a soft spot for North Melbourne for reasons I wont bother going into, and genuinely want them to survive, but Sunday was an ominous sign.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
