Apparently, that was before the 1st bounce!   A Record for pre round 1.

Next milestone:  35,953 which was last 2015 total.

Next Record to fall is our all time high in 2011 of...

36,937

...should be done in the next few weeks! 

Then the big one for the club:  40,000 members.  Hard to see us not reaching that by the close off mid-season.

That is worth an extra $800,000 approx over last year.

I spent $600 yesterday it was good to get your money's worth and  exciting I said to the boys you look like your going to get golden times , I had to wait 14 years to watch us play our first final it was great to see people walking out happy and smiling .

40,000 looking great!

[Its Time for Another 4,306]

26/3/16 - 35,117

26/3/15 - 31,035

28/3/14 - 32,324

4,000 ahead of this time last year. If we maintain that difference to the end we'll be on or just a few hundred off cracking 40,000. As I understand it that was the total before we won. Bring it on.

Yes, you would expect this weekend's game, and the Collingwood one in a couple of weeks to be crucial for the numbers, particularly if we are undefeated. 40000 looking very possible...

[Chris 2,892]

Now 35,319. Hope it jumps again after smashing the cheats. 

[drdrake 3,203]

I reckon Friday the club will announce it has surpassed our previous Membership record.  I think once they finalise processing memberships from the weekend and a the renewals coming in the week we will hit the 37K mark

going to sign my Cat's supporting misses to the Dees or would that fall under spouse abuse?

You too? I tried that when I signed her and my son up for AFL memberships, I put it down as Melbourne club support - when she got the membership in the mail she cracked it. I tried to explain she doesn't even go to many games and we need the cash more than they do but it didn't fly so I had to change it to a Cats one

Hope your boy was able to stay a Demon supporter!

No way - my husband (Collingwood supporter) gets a Dee's membership every year for Christmas.

What she doesn't know won't hurt her. Or you, if she were to find out about it.

Haha yeah don't worry about that he just turned 3 but is brainwashed - has been running around the house singing "It's A Grand Old Flag" to himself since I took him to the game on Saturday. Got another one at home too, both signed up within days of birth.

He's lucky. Most Collingwood supporters are grateful if they're given parole for Christmas.

less than 4 1/2 thousand to go until the 40K.   its looking very possible now!

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,632]

Allow me to be the first:

"That's not going to help..."

(so, a special appeal to the as-yet-unsigned: give us something to be positive about this week. Please?)

 

[Spirit of '87 344]

Are we are deducting cut up membership cards from the total, may have dropped back to around 25,000 this week.
