Maybe because their official auditor Ed final figure excludes the ‘free’ memberships given to existing members which I understand were counted in their published total of 81,012? Hence why maybe they stopped updating it, allowing the auditor Ed talky to catch up to the number last updated in April. We will find out shortly.
I can’t believe what’s going on at Hawthorn presently. It will be interesting to see how membership reacts in 2022.Kennett claimed ‘76,000 members’ in the QC article tonight...
‘Tell them I won’t lose any sleep’: Kennett on potential overthrow bid
Amid the fallout of Alastair Clarkson’s imminent departure, a group of powerful Hawthorn supporters have engaged a QC to review the club’s constitution in a potential challenge to president Jeff Kennettwww.google.com.au
I have only had a few emails so, of 76,000 members, people are entitled to do what they like, but sometimes leaders and boards have got to make long-term decisions and often they are tough to make and they have got to be made.”
Of course the 76,000 could be the 2020 figure - 76,363 (down on 81,031 in 2019)
Hawthorn membership tally a humbling result

Hawthorn has a bit of a Civil War going on at the moment with all the leaks etc so it’s surprising that the club membership has just about been the only figure not leaked
Does that mean the Carlton final figure can include their ~7,000 freebies passed onto prospective new members? We will known soon enough.It used to be that a $50 minimum spend was required to be included in the AFL's audited membership totals; however according to the Advertiser there is now no minimum spend.
I'd take all these totals and "records" with a massive grain of salt.

I can't wait till they remove the pack requirements and contact data next year. Imagine having membership numbers tied to your bonus.It used to be that a $50 minimum spend was required to be included in the AFL's audited membership totals; however according to the Advertiser there is now no minimum spend.

Not being rude but in what world is the Swans numbers ‘not great’.
Yeah you were around 61k then dropped off after the drop to the bottom 4 and covid. I’m just saying I reckon it would’ve been a 55k+ tally this year if Covid was a non issue which is still a really good number.
