Wonder how much this is due to more people signing up for auto-renewal.
I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

Got my membership pack delivered today,the usual crap but I liked the cap. I do wish the 2014 member sticker was bigger.
My wife, son and I got our packs today.
Look, I'd still sign up every year even if all they sent me was a red, white and blue coloured Bulldog turd, but I was a little bit peeved at the so called baby blanket that came with my son's membership. It looks suspiciously similar to the blanket we used to get with our pet membership.
A bit off-topic but I have a work colleague who has a cousin/nephew? (I think) working in membership at the bulldogs having previously worked at Collingwood. Whilst still a dyed in the wool Woods supporter he is loving his time at the dogs who he has found welcoming and supportive. He loves the place.
Apparently players are required to make themselves known to all staff at the club and the feeling is one of inclusiveness and everyone heading in a common direction. I gather from what I've been told, this was not necessarily the case at Collingwood.
I guess this is the difference between a club overflowing with resources and one trying to achieve ultimate success with limited resources to do so. Appears to be a great culture at the dogs driven on-field and off. Kudos to Gordon, Garlick and Macca.

Can add three memberships with seats to the tally.
The sign at club says over 16,000 to date. The membership guy thinks that 35,000 is achievable.
Watched training for a few hours. Was surprised how big the list is. The intensity of training was also a surprise. At one stage I thought it was on with griffin and grant. Great stuff!
My membership tracker status: Dispatched and should be in the mail within the next 7 to 10 days.

Is the sticker inside the membership booklet in the member's pack supposed to be a bumper sticker? It's very small.
It'd be great if we could get an ongoing year vs year (2014 vs 2013) comparison.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
