Ok my mistake. I think we will struggle to get beyond 55 next year even if we finish top four this year. We Don’t have big numbers of supporters. 

If we go deep and start next year well, we'll get 55,000 easily IMO. We've probably got 100-150,000 supporters across the country and signed up almost 50,000 of them. Start winning flags/genuinely challenging and we'll start to convert more. It might take a flag for many of those still unsigned though.

    If we finish top 4 this year and back it up next year we will nudge 60k

    I find it hard to fathom that the Blues have over 80k members.
    Many of their supporters must have had very high (finals) expectations.

    According to the national Morgan survey it's more like 250,000-270,000 across the country and Melbourne signs up a higher proportion of supporters than any other club.

    Of course, Morgan's survey is distorted. The Swans with more than a million supporters?

    That's what happens when people in Sydney are asked what AFL team they follow...and they come up with the Swans but many would not really follow the AFL competition at all. They come up with the Swans because, well, who else? They are not 'engaged supporters' in the sense of our diehard quarter million.

    Ditto Brisbane.

    I reckon this is a good example of statistics being manipulated. I'd say rather than Melbourne signing up a higher proportion of supporters than any other club, it is more a case that for a long time we have not been relevant to the general public, and people that don't really support a team when surveyed answer with one of the big/well known clubs.

    Win a premiership and see the "supporter" numbers increase significantly, which men's nothing. The real gains are the 10-15k members who hadn't renewed their memberships over the past decade, and some ex Hawthorn and Geelong bandwagon supporters and potentially North and Carlton supporters who have had enough.

    Look at Power, Dogs and Demons on that list.  The top three sides so far this year are amongst the lowest. Love it.
    Wonder how the AFL feels about it?

    I don’t agree I think it is a good figure in 2021 and for a club that has spent 50 years in the wilderness.

    In '18 and '19 we roughly signed another 4k from this point so with more wins and hard work it should be doable - would be an incredible achievement!

    a lot suffered last year financially, i reckon we cant under estimate that. if we get close to 50K it will be a great effort.

    I relented and re-signed after the Richmond win.

    The other 2 memberships I normally buy are being kept up my sleeve for future wins....

    I used to be a member for about 10 years but live on the Murray and are no longer. Maybe I should look at an interstate membership.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
