This years membership record at 31508 is an incredible achievement for so many reasons but we cant rest on our laurels and continue the mutual warm and fuzzy back slapping ad infinitum we have to continue to grow the club and get even more into the paying fold.

I dont think 35000 for 2010 is unachievable. Personally I have found the monthly direct debit method of paying the club a very handy method. SO too it seems many others and if you know of anyone , or if indeed it woulod be the difference between your god sleves retaining membership of forgoing it then this is a great alternative to the larger once off payment especially as we're often somewhat poorer after Christmas.

A good ploy by the club is that should you have chosen this payment method for 2009 then it will just roll over into 2010 unles yo either tell them to stop by opting out ( and you have to do it ) or my upgrading. Point is you have to cancel..they dont have to chase. Hopefully this will result in retaing a few thousand who might not have coninued on for what ever reasons.

I dont think for manyof us that we have genuinely sen so much promise before a season and having it based on realistic expectations instead of lind biased hope.

So after the finals...and as the hype of trade and draft weeks build lets see if we cant convince a few more to join our bandwagon.

Christmas is coming ..lol.. get in quick

    I have brought this up before and I am yet to get some sort of answer: -

    But why does the Official Record still have our official membership tally for the 2008 season as 32,600?

    Was this because memberships were purchased after cut-off point last year?

    I was certain the tally was 29K-something. Because this year (2009) was the first time we had cracked the 30,000 barrier.

    Puzzling....

    Because they're pathetic. They also had us down for the wooden spoon this year before we'd 'won' it, and they've missed out on our 1997 wooden spoon (not such a bad thing, but a mistake nonetheless).

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • 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.
