2017 Membership count

I've got 10 family members in regional NSW all Swans members

The Swans website lists Swans supporter groups in WA, SA, ACT, Gold Coast and Wagga Wagga so there must be reasonable numbers of supporters in each of those areas, some of whom I expect are also Swans members.

There seems to be a fair few members in S.E. Queensland. Some of the games that I've been to, there appeared to be a fairly even balance between Swans supporters and home supporters. Though that may be an indication of how poorly the Suns and Lions have been doing lately.

Wonder if it would help if the club published membership numbers by state and region ie NSW, Vic etc and country NSW etc?

I don't see a need for it personally, but others may like to see the breakup.

Well on target for 60,000 then. Do we have a cap of membership due to ground capacity ?

Giants have 15,000, probably aiming for 20,000. Hard to imagine a decade ago, that Sydney teams would have 80,000+ AFL members.

Geez a certain Mr Franklin has pretty much put an extra 20000 odd bums on seats since coming here - what a master stroke that was in getting hm to join us!!!

[strapper]

The point I was trying to make was that we have many members interstate or in regional NSW

[Meg]

I think there are four factors:
1. Buddy - a very big attraction (aren't we lucky!)
2. Move to all home matches at SCG in Sydney
3. Increase in matches in Melbourne (boost for Vic memberships)
4. Ongoing success of Swans competitively and as an attractive, professionally-run club.

Meg is 100% spot on with her analysis.
