    10k of those members were inspired to join up by G's tireless cold nights camping out in Braybrook.

    Training at skinner did it. Bought the club back to its roots.
    That’s my take anyway.

    Great achievement by the club. I?m looking forward to the revamped upgraded Whitten Oval. It has been good that we have invested into the Braybrook community with the Skinner Reserve as well. Braybrook the old school western suburbs.

    I’m an old sunshine player . I love whitten oval but I’m biased to skinner , so many memories of playing there and watching Footscray practice matches.
    All my youth was spent at Skinner, actually amazed how many felt the same when I went to training there a few weeks ago. All us oldies there for the memories .

    Skinner was I believe home to the Sunshine Footy club and Pennell Resteve home to the Braybrook footy club. Both located in Braybrook.

    I played at Sunshine but went to braybrook high, across the road from Pennell reserve. Nowadays I am in Melton and go to Melton bloods games when AFL or VFL isn’t on.
    We have definitely grown in members around Melton and Ballarat as well.

    Re: 2023 membership

    Do they ever differentiate the number of each type of membership? I think we would have sold quite a few digital memberships, as they were discussed on general footy/sport podcasts and twitter as a cheap way to get a Kayo subscription.

    It's a great result for the club. However we get money into the club, it's a win...and everything will be on automatic rollover (including the digital membership) so will hopefully continue to a good result next year.

    Re: 2023 membership

    It was disappointing as a 25+ year member living in WA, that nothing was done for the WA based supporters before the Freo game. No announcement of an open training, nothing done for the junior members (particularly as it was school holidays) even though the Dogs were in WA for the full week. When i spoke to the club and asked why there was nothing for the supporters I was told it was a scheduling issue. THEY WERE HERE ALL WEEK !!!

    Yes, it is frustrating. We're very hit and miss with this stuff. They are lucky that many of us just keep fronting up irrespective of how much love comes back our way. But its' not a great way to grow a fan base.

    I know some steadfastly refuse to accept it but the club is missing a number of opportunities to engage the fans correctly. Interstate fans don't get a lot of value for their memberships and are right up there in the loyalty stakes so when the club has a golden opportunity to give just a bit back they should be on the front foot about it.

    Is there still a strong supporters group over there or did that fall away?
