Anyone know how big the waiting list is for seats just now?

I currently at 8,500ish in line, I think I managed to jump up the list a massive 30-35 places last year. Doing the sums (if every in the wings member in front of me was to take two seats in the new stadium) I think I'm going to be right around the cut-off to get a seat. Of course that all depends on what happens with AFL/opposition teams allocation etc etc.

Fantastic! Well done Eagles. How many other clubs have a fanbase over 60,000, I wonder. We are surely, one of the bigger clubs after Collingwood.

 

[Ochre]

60,000 members, with a 43,000 seating capacity is like an MCG club having 140,000 members.

(just go with it)

I'm pretty sure it is Collingwood, Adelaide, Port Adelaide, Hawthorn and now us.

EDIT: Forgot Richmond.

 

[nameless]

Wow, Port turned things around pretty fast.

Well done to WCE and the fans for finally breaking 60,000.

Would 60,001 if the waiting list wasn't a lifetime wait

 

[The Falcon Strike]

The chest beating over members is a sham. More about branding then real numbers

We have 37,000 11 game members and perhaps another 1-2,000 Vic based ticketed members

The rest (inc myself) are just email addresses and phone numbers on a marketing list

The waiting list allows for 4 tickets per membership - so I am surprised they haven't said we have 100k members

 

[kerrazy]

You can guess what happens when the new stadium is built.

Down go the memberships.

It's amazing to think about the cashflow of such a large number. Just thinking of the money I've spent on the club. When I consider the annual cost of tickets, multiplied by the number of years I've been a member, add the number of beers (and wines and scotches and bourbons) I've bought, a few things from the team store. Then key it all into a calculator... I get 5318008... my favourite number!

I see what you did there.

Jeebus. The membership requirements have changed a bit since I last looked into it!

Isn't it "5"5318008?

I was a seated member, do I need to punch myself in the dick?

Nah, I was going for "IES" as opposed to "LESS".
