2017 Richmond Membership Thread - 73,235 on 23/8/17

Do you have to get a 16 game 2018 membership to get the free 2017 membership?

No, got to the website

https://membership.richmondfc.com.au/buy-rance-get-rioli-0#

It's only offering h11, h3, and country/interstate packages

The free 2017 memberships should not be counted in this years tally as its not a sale but a give away but the benefit is that the chances are the people buying these memberships would be people who dont or didnt have a 2017 membership so it shouldn't effect the sales for next year from the current members.

On another note tigers averaged 40,920 people attending our games with 900,237 total attendances Ranked #7
This year our match day attendances are 46,580 Ranked #1 and total attendances are 1,024,751 Ranked #1

Extra 124,514 total
average 5,660 extra a game

Added to this we will play min 2 finals with possibly 160,000 - 170,000 extra people attending & 2,000 extra members
I wouldn't be suprised if the Richmond Football Club posted a $5,000,000 profit for 2017 which would be an amazing result considering where our team was 6 years ago.

Yep should be a massive profit , our club should be on it's way to having formidable financial strength , meaning we re always in a position employing the best of the best to run the joint . With our membership and attendance numbers , it should be elementary

Win tonight and I reckon 80k is possible

 

[Hank Heavenly]

If we ever win a flag, then I reckon we could push 90k easily if not the magical 100k mark

My guess is they are counting 2018 members who weren't already 2017 members. We probably have 5-10,000 2018 members already

[Groupie_]

are we top now

 

[GoTigers2015]

Probably not, Eddy would have found some more members.

Remember - Collingwood give an honorary membership to all people in jail...

Even if we lose on Saturday I reckon we'll have 75K members by R1 2018. If we make it to GF that will be pushing 80K. Win GF and 80K+.

 

[Madtiger2006]

Go all the way and 90k a good chance

A real shame but the difficulty in accessing finals tickets will likely put some off. If I had bought my membership for the year only to miss out on getting access to a ticket in a prelim final at a stadium that holds 100,000 against a team whose members reportedly bought no more than 3,000 tickets I would be pi55ed off. Imagine the level of frustration if we were playing a big Melbourne club.

Going forward, if you don't have a membership you won't get a finals ticket and probably won't get into some our bigger drawing games either (First game, Dreamtime, ANZAC Eve etc). Looks like we're heading down the path of the Crows and Eagles where you will need to have a membership to attend games

Regardless, the necessity of getting a membership to attend finals should push up our membership next year considerably. Couple that with our womens team license and the members drawn from that and we'll rocket past the Pies and Hawks into untested heights

I would also expect a lot of membership upgrades to reserved seating to happen.

If we keep on going the way we are, then just a General Admission wouldn't be enough for games like the traditional Rd1 match, ANZAC eve or Dreamtime unless you get in early to reserve a seat on top of the GA membership for that game. Even on games where it's not a sell out will mean supporters will need to turn up earlier to get a good seat due to the larger crowds in general, which would increase the incentive to purchase a reserved seat.

Can see this happening.....a reserved seat will definitely be the way to go. Pay by the month and you don't even notice it.

Tigers - Do we have an update on our membership numbers and what will it surge to this week ..... I reckon its likey to go gangbusters this week ....

I think they might have stopped counting. 76k is a pretty good result though

 

[Ocker]

Reckon 80k + is a goer in 2018...
