2018 membership numbers

[707]

Richmond, wonder how they're going?

I wonder how that bizarre Focus on Footy group are going?!!

[Vonsteinman]

According to the website the number is above 37k now, which appears to put it ahead of the same time last year...

Tippo's retirement probably got a few more memberships over the line

40,002. We are 2/3rds of the way to 60,000. Can we do it this year?

Thanks for the regular updates Yvonne. Where do you get your figures from? I've quickly scanned the Swans website and can't find them there.

I should be used to our elevated membership numbers by now but as an old South Melbourne supporter, I''m still amazed - and thankful! - that we're attracting such big numbers!

For comparison purposes, can anyone tell me what would be considered to be good membership numbers for Sydney based NRL teams?

Go to the 'membership' tag on the Swans website and scroll down.

Don't know how "official" these are, but here they are:

Compare NSW Rugby total members to NSW AFL total members for a fairer comparison.

Thanks neilfws and CTS for your replies. Most interesting to compare the figures!

I would have thought Rugby League would be a better source of comparison over rugby?

THINK - and I do mean think - it was between 58,800 and 58,900. May be wrong though!!
