Resource 2026 Membership - all aboard

[Passmore]

I got my 18 consecutive Membership Certificate sent to my Inbox today.

Fantastic news

I thought you’d have been longer than that…..

Consecutive.

I had a break in 2006-2007 due to one income

Before that from 1992

Wow another record broken, incredible given all the crying happening in here

Does the 50 whatever k figure really matter when we're still struggling to break 20k against interstate clubs at Docklands? Telling me we have 38,000+ who are overseas, regional/interstate, or unable to attend on a given gameday?

Crowd numbers matter more than membership numbers imo. The steady increase for literally everyone is rather suspicious

Don't forget $9 memberships for LDUs contract extension.

Contact the club. You can get them to consider that and count it as consecutive anyway.

I bought an extra $9 LDU membership this year, didn't actually end up using it, but I figured at $9 if my wife or anyone else decided to come to one of the games last minute, it wasn't a bad deal to have an extra ticket.

Just had an email from the club, they were planning on renewing it at $39 for next year, only way to cancel it was to ring the club, wait on hold, speak to someone etc.

I'm sure it is buried deep in the T&Cs that it auto-renews, but selling something for $9 then auto-renewing it for more than four times that price is pretty a sh1tting practice and disappointing from the club. Particularly not being able to cancel it myself online.

I have cancelled auto-renew on my own membership a while back and have just made them delete my credit card information again, I will renew, but I will do it when I'm ready!

With my membership, a digital membership and now this, it is hard to keep track of which memberships are auto-renew and which aren't. The website is terrible, one page told me I had no payment methods saved, another page had the last digits of my card and said it would be charged in a couple of weeks! Not great to not be able to trust the club with your credit card info!

Worth checking for anyone else bought an extra $9 membership.

Going when we get flogged every second week is hard. What's encouraging is people sticking fat and keeping memberships through the turmoil. We could be like Melbourne who lost 10% of their members this year...

In 2024 we had the best supporters to members conversion in the AFL according to Roy Morgan. A good stat as we increase on field success.

Grand Finalists Sydney & Brisbane are the most widely supported AFL teams with over 1 million supporters each - Roy Morgan Research

For the first time both AFL Grand Finalists have over 1 million supporters with the Sydney Swans again topping the annual Roy Morgan AFL supporter ladder with 1,337,000 supporters.

2026 Member renewal emails are out

 

[SpiderBurton22]

$449 for my level 1 reserved bay next year. Think it was $399 this year.

 

[kool kangas]

My membership for the extra 2 home games on level2 with reserved seats for adult pension concession is $79 for both so 39.90 per game.

 

[hilly]

Yeah minimal increase for L2. Keep in mind we have two more home games. Kudos to Watts.

 

[spicerFanClub]

Looks like Premiership club hasn't increased by much. A win given there's 2 extra home games.

 

[Uncle_Leo]

From what I can see for my membership only up $36 for 2 extra home games.

I'm stunned.

Was anticipating an increase of $100 or more

 

[Quivorir]

Actually received an email (well 3 of the same one, but getting there) after hopefully getting it fixed. I don't recall what this season cost for reserved seat premiership but I must say I was pretty surprised (in a good way) with the price.

 

[gokangas]

I still don't get emails but I am sure they will remember to deduct my membership.

Mine didn’t go up at all, very pleasantly surprised. Like you said, thought we were looking at a decent increase.

 

[An Ardenary Life]

Done, paid up, all set, next year is a new dawn, let's go Roos!

Same now all I need is for them to make the grand final as I’ve got guaranteed tickets lol.

 

[Lebit]

I got nine of the exact same email so maybe it works on some sort of average....now will they charge me 9 times? Maybe, I mean they have charged four different people with the same surname as me to me one year..... such a professionally run outfit

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

Shocked, actually shocked the price hasn’t gone up by 200 bucks for Prem club. So shocked I’ll leave the autorenew on this year and not bother holding out until post-Xmas.

 

[amaz199]

To be expected.

The money being brought in from WA is far more substantial than what Tassie provided.

 

[backtothedraft]

That's great by the club and a good sign of our financial position. If on field results can improve, hopefully supporters return the faith and turn up.
