Let's get to 10,000 members

[MuzztheEagle]

Did anyone (@The Wheel ?) manage to clarify which memberships actually add to the official total? I will happily add my current, future and imaginary children and pets if it adds to the total.

Muzz - the NRL supposedly counts ticketed members, however this varies. Eg Suncorp Members count as Broncos members etc.

The NRL apparently are in the middle of review now to clarify what counts etc.I believe our club count of just below 10k is all memberships

Currently showing 9,971... lets get our friends and family signing up.
I sign up every year even though I live in NZ and the Membership Renewal is my Birthday to myself and the club gets my money so you guys are so fortunate that you can attend live matches and see players around the area. I only get to see them play live when they come to NZ which some years they don't so I miss out altogether. For those who are still thinking about it, it is time to jump on board and come for a wonderful ride.

What an amazing attitude @NZEaglesFan . Simply inspirational and exemplary reason why fans convert to club members where it counts most

I admire solutions people like you as excuses people never reach or contribute to any state of excellence .

 

[anthonyb1965]

Look at the numbers mate and stop making excuses . excuses wont get us 50, 000 members

What excuses? Our membership numbers have been average for years but we have a better game attendance than a lot of clubs (home ground).
What is YOUR solution to getting more members? Spaming memes won't work!
Just for the record, i purchased the gold package once Des was announced and have been a Football club member for years.

 

[Cliffymagic]

Im going sign up b4 our first game once i got the cash sorted. I dont live in nsw so will get the non ticketed deal. Bit concerned about people saying only ticketed memberships are counted. As im sure there would be a few thousand non ticketed out there. But hopefully it does count to the tally. Real excited bout this year.

 

[Frogz]

Where on earth does it say Souufs have 50,00 members. Current 2019 figures first then past years figures (as at 6 days ago)

Better than a lot?????

 

[Dan]

Think we should also have 10000 members here too, it's easy to join come on bring a friend, it's not quite a cult but it isn't far off

 

[The Who]

Better than a lot?????

There are some dubious figures in this lot:
NZ improving by 47.85% despite another poor year on the paddock?
Sydney? Who is Sydney? I think they means Easts, down 13.73% despite winning the comp!
Crowd figures are influenced by a number of factors, the weather, the schedule/timing, whether it is a free-to-air TV match and, of course, the team's on-field performances.

Easts are lucky they aren’t down by more. They are nomads this year because of sfs closure.

[The Wheel]

Next stop 20,000 - thanks for everyone who has joined up to support our club.

Some reasons to consider joining apart from ensuring our club survives and thrives;

Seats in the stands at Lottoland are still available. Bring the family (2 adults & 2 juniors) or purchase with a friend and save up to $700!

Why not skip the queue and pay 20% less than at the gates, so you can head straight to your favourite spot on the hill with our popular 5 Game Flexi Membership.

Full-season junior packages work out as little as $6 a game and include an exclusive invitation to a clinic featuring our 2019 squad! Share the load in bringing the kids and their friends with our 1 adult family packages

Also I would be interested to know why you haven’t joined up if you haven’t so we can take it back to the Members Council.

First of all Congratulations for being a responsible fan and for doing the right thing and purchasing membership and also for being a member of the football club

Fans like you @anthonyb1965 that make an effort to become a member do make a big difference to our club and we need more fans with your passion and commitment !
I am also very proud to say I am a member of both

Lets get this straight once and for all .......
I do not call my posts on here as spaming . I call them a AWARENESS . All the club and passionate well meaning members of our club can do is make fans be AWARE of their obligations to their club .
We cant tie fans up and drag them into the office and sign them up for membership as it all comes from fans who have their heart in our club .

Congratulations once again feathered friend . Thank you once again for being part of our team that keeps our Sea eagles dream alive !!!

 

[The Who]

Unfortunately, Wheel, you are preaching to the converted. The vast majority who contribute to this Forum are Sea Eagle members.
The challenge is to widen our 'catchment area'. This could include greater connection and resources in the Blacktown area where we have our feeder team.
But, imo, there is greater potential in gaining a following in Christchurch, NZ. Take both of our non-Brookie matches there; stuff Brisbane (yes I know there is a revenue reason but imo gaining a foothold in Christchurch will eventually make up for the shortfall).
Plus, having a pipeline of talented South Island footballers is invaluable from an on-field performance standpoint.
If Brookie Oval is allowed to disintegrate, as seems to be the plan of the Council and the NRL, then each season we should play one less match there and add that match to Christchurch. This is going to hurt me and others who love going to Brookie but it may just prod some action on turning Brookie into the showpiece it should be.
It's time for some radical thinking. If the Sea Eagles want to revive their once successful club then grasp the South Island link before some other Sydney club does.

 

[Frogz]

Yep its amazing. We have 185,000 like our Facebook page yet we struggle to get 10K. It just don't make sense

This seems like a culture thing with us Manly supporters and stats and figures do not lie . Sadly we are are not overall committed in numbers to our club like all the other club supporters . Which is a very sad fact indeed .

* I HAVE A MESSAGE OF AWARENESS TO ALL THE MANLY FANS ......

* DO NOT TELL US THAT YOU ARE A MANLY SUPPORTER
SHOW US !!! HOW YOU ARE A TRUE MANLY SUPPORTER

* TRUE CLUB SUPPORTERS ARE COMMITTED MEMBERS OF THEIR CLUB AND ARE PART OF THE CLUBS TEAM THAT KEEP THE CLUBS DREAM ALIVE

* ARE YOU ONE OF THOSE CLUB MEMBERS BELOW .?????
IF NOT WE ARE ASKING YOU TO JOIN US AND HELP LIFT OUR CLUB OFF THE BOTTOM OF THE LADDER .
WE CANT DO IT ON OUR OWN !!!
