I just sent a link via Twitter to two board members.
Hopefully they take the time to have a look.

There are compensations galore with the kids Meb. Just think, you'll be an Auskick mum in a few years!
About a month or so ago a few Bombers players came out to my kids daycare. Each kid got a pack which had a footy, a book, a T-shirt and a few other bits and pieces. All the kids had a ball and my boy hasn't stopped talking about playing hide and seek with Skeeta the mascot.
Although I was disgusted to see my boy (and all the other kids) wearing a bombers shirt when I picked him up, it was pretty impressive what they did.
Do we do things like this?
Interacting with kids is surely the whole point of the mascots! Get Navy Nina and Captain Carlton to hustle goddamnit!
This is going to be fun ...Who the hell is Navy Nina ??
Or should that be the Navy Ninja ??

She's cool as. I always see little girls lining up at the fence to have a chat with her before the games.Navy Nina is very popular in our house. I have no doubt my daughters would love to meet her.
Good point. Took the kids to training on the weekend - team ran out 45 minutes late followed by the training session before anyone interacted with the kids.Interacting with kids is surely the whole point of the mascots! Get Navy Nina and Captain Carlton to hustle goddamnit!
I wrote in another thread in response to the rumour that the board want to land a big fish to give the membership a massive spike, if Carlton supporters aren't interested in signing up as a member now (ie. after that gritty win over GWS on the weekend) then they never ever will.
Whilst some people think playing finals etc will bring members in, those attracted by that scenario are just the chardonnay sipping bandwagoner set who will jump off just as quick. They will come and go but we need some genuine depth & consolidation in our membership numbers because the bandwagoners are not the ones the club needs to build its support base around.
New slogan - "Are You With Us ??"
It's a call to arms to all Blues fans across the country, get onboard now and ride this baby home to the end.
It's a shame that no-one was able to come up with a membership package or two for the really rusted on supporters to show their intentions when Bolton was appointed.
"66-Game Reset Membership" - supporters sign up for three years with monthly payments being taken from their credit card
"Next Premiership Membership" (the ultimate supporter package) - supporters sign up to be members until such time as we win cup No. 17. with monthly payments being taken from their credit card
These unique packages could of generated a guaranteed 25,000-30,000 members are already locked in every year for some time.
It would of given them some genuine bragging rights plus opened up the possibility of a unique & exclusive range of merchandise that was only open to those who signed up for one of those packages.
Still not too late to implement the "Next Premiership" pack, in fact it may be an opportune time.
Way to think outside the box .. tap into already blue blood loyalists
According to the club, all Nike gear at the club is limited to a max size of XXL. For those of us who are larger than that, we're s**t out of luck. It has a tendency to stop the club from making more sales.
The club charges interstate members $95 bucks (I think... I never pay attention to that s**t) and we have access to 5 interstate games... well that's s**t for starters... SA supporters didn't have a game in their state for how long, and us WA supporters might see 1 game a year, unless we're minted and can fly all over Australia for interstate games. And we just get the standard membership pack as Victorian based members. The club needs to do more to engage those of us who live interstate. At times I feel that we are only there as a line on a spreadsheet for the club. Maybe the club needs to think up what extra they can put into the membership pack for us... maybe include both the cap and scarf for us... or maybe a personalised signed framed photograph of our favourite player with a "Thanks for supporting the club" added in.
ESSENDON and Adelaide are eyeing a pre-season match in Mumbai or Delhi as part of a plan to capture the hearts of the Indian community.
The Bombers and Crows will play an India-themed match at Etihad Stadium in Round 21 featuring Hindi and Punjabi commentary teams to launch the partnership.
They tried that.Just an idea what about all paid up members go into a raffle to win a car or has this been done?
It just provides a little bit of incentive.
Sikh and you shall find.BLOODY ESSENDON AGAIN !!!!

Are we ever going to get on the gravy train to improve our memberships ??

Much to Dave Hugheses's disgust Geoffrey Edelsten won.
