Great stuff. Now make sure you rock up to the G this weekend.  It is just so important that we vastly outnumber the opposition 

For what it’s worth, the weather app that I use shows at the moment that there will be no rain when we play on Saturday evening 🤞(yes I know BOM says it will be wet - just like it did for last Friday evening). GO DEES!

Amazing.  Let's get to 70000 next year!

With this number, we are reaching up to be classed as a “power club”. At this rate of improvement and continued success on the field we could get to 100k within three years. That is huge. I can remember when the figure was less than half our current number. Here are the latest numbers:

Club 2022 Membership Tally  Record
Adelaide 40,000 64,437 (2019)
Brisbane 40,973 40,973
Carlton 84,769 84,769
Collingwood 86,641 86,641
Essendon 78,579 84,237 (2019)
Fremantle 53,549 55,639 (2018)
Geelong 66,048 70,293 (2021)
Gold Coast 8,721 19,460 (2021)
GWS 30,861 30,861
Hawthorn 70,007 81,211 (2019)
Melbourne 62,813 62,813
North Melbourne 48,639 48,639
Port Adelaide 59,146 59,146
Richmond 99,213 105,084 (2021)
St Kilda 57,930 57,930
Sydney 51,642 61,912 (2019)
West Coast 100,000 106,422 (2021)
Western Bulldogs 49,593 49,593

I measure our rating and potential through my “grandkids test”. I have four grand kids under 7. Up until last year they used to be ridiculed when they wore their Dees jumper in the play ground. That all changed around September last year. Now they tell me the majority of footy jumpers in the playground are red and blue. 

An encouraging sign…

Where to go from here now? Regardless of the outcome of this year's finals, surely we expect 70k+ members in 2023.

Holy crap West Coast are a big club. Hopefully we can have sustained finals appearances and  fingers crossed  another flag to get a new wave of members.

Might be a few less members next year after our disappointing final series.

It may be a slow start but I hope and expect that if the team shows the high level intensity from 2021 and we have a good start of the season, supporters will come and join!

    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
