It is simple. 

Stay in the race for the 8 and we will get over 40,000 this year. 

 

Or get Jesse's signature on the Thursday leading up to QB!

I'd be surprised if we got to 39,000 to be honest.

That is an absolute shoe-in.

May 12 we ticked over 38,000

May 20 we had 38,266

May 27 and we have 38,391

There will be less sign on every week from now on. 100/week for 5 weeks has us just under 39,000.

More would be great but I can't see it happening.

Ditto.

Like others have said, the loss to Essendon & Saints hurt.

3 Game memberships will get us over the line. $99 and it gets a supporter on the database...

I hope that you are right (even if we have to invest in promoting the package)!

Unlike some other clubs, our pet memberships don't count. Although my two dogs are probably smarter and cleaner than some Collingwood supporters.

Funny you should mention Collingwood supporters ET.  Crowd was only 28,500 yesterday. Home game at the G and coming off a great game vs Geelong and a friendly 1.10 time slot.  Don't know what their supposed 75,000 members do when their team plays at the 'G'.  Fair weather fans!

They probably won't show up on QB Monday either!  Mores the pity for our gate revenue.

The weather will determine whether I go or not on Monday LH.

Sorry to say it but I am a fair weather fan these days.

Actually I think we usually have a bigger percentage of members turn up than they do, they have more supporters there, but when you consider they have nearly twice the membership we have, our turnout is pretty good.

Most of them probably head off to the snow (or Gold Coast) for the long weekend.

A win would be a nice change.

I actually think fans hate this timeslot the most.

It's so early in the day, it interrupts the morning and by the time the game's over you feel like the afternoon's gone too.

I think I dislike 1.10pm starts more than 4.40pm starts.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
