And perhaps some closure on the great “Just how big is the Saints support base?” debate:
In 2018, St Kilda had a support base of 294,000 supporters and boasts 1 in 5 supporters in the Bayside region.
The numbers quoted are the Club’s.
(Ref: p9 of the Reconciliation Action Plan).
This is exactly the number quoted in the Roy Morgan research published in 2017:

We are a small club, any thought of reaching Richmond style membership numbers is total pipe dream stuff.
We are as big, or small, as Port Adelaide, North, Bulldogs and Melbourne.

Do you think this is correct , it seems really high to me , if true how the hell do we get them to sign up , that would sure help the club
