Closest to the mark...2022 membership total

[ding 5,126]

So we finally won a Grand Final.

Im still drifting between drunk and hungover and have spent up big on club merch. I know im not alone, and many would have spent much more than me going by the jumper auctions online. This premiership will do so much for the club that its effects will be felt for years.

One of the huge improvements should be club membership next year. Lets see who can get closest to the official figure.

53,706 was this years total and we will break that by a long way.

My guess for next year is 67,500.

Whats yours?

We are a sleeping giant.

That's our 5 AA's. Petracca, Lever, May, Gawn & Oliver

I am going to say anything over 65,000+ will be wonderful.

We had over 52,000 members this year.

So an increase of over 10,000 would be great to see.

If we get 70,000+ members then that will be HUGE!!! We won't be a small club anymore with those numbers.

Remember that you need sustained success with multiple Premierships to expect to see genuine growth of members.

We have missed out on generations of Melbourne supporters after 57 years of mediocrity.

However, there will be ALOT of lapsed Demons supporters wanting to be members in 2022 though!

Seeing Melbourne hopefully win a Premiership on the MCG will be a massive draw card for people!

In a normal situation membership should go up by  min 30 perc ,  if we are covid restricted who knows?

I don’t see the membership will increase that dramatically given people from Victoria still aren’t 100% certain whether AFL footy will be a TV event or a live event next year.

Will be live for fully vaccinated. Perhaps for everyone if we reach 90% fully vaxxed by next March.
