            What do you think Barry's signature would mean for the level of (increased) membership? Would you think there is any significance?

              I think there would have been a small rise anyway but with Hall on board I really think that we'll see a decent spike in membership sales.

                Its going to be like the affect of Ben Cousin joining the Tiger. The pre-season hype will be enormous and the Team with Big Bad Beautiful Bustling Bulldog Barry delivering ( ie. kick a few goals in the opening few rounds and the Team winning to be thereabouts as contenders). I expect us to crack the magical 30k.

                I will do everything to join next year for the first time ever!!!

                  After making the prelim last year our membership figures didn't improve though.. I'm guessing we will stay at the 28k mark.

                    As much as it would be nice to see an increase in memberships as a result, it would shit me up the wall no end in a way, to be honest!

                    Why wait until, x, y or z happens before you join up?

                    Why wait until we sign player x, y, or z before you join up?

                    I know I'm preaching to the converted here, but it does get frustrating.

                      Just the way of the world unfortunatly, just like people drop off when the teams not performing, and jumping back on when they start moving on up, many many people are just not as committed as most of us here.

                        I have heard reports that some members have been ringing the club to inform them of their displeasure at signing Barry and letting them know that they will no longer be members if we recruit Hall.

                        I think it's a little petty... If I can take 10 years of Eagleton and still sign up every year they can take a couple of years of Hall.

                          Ha ha ha. Nice call.

                          But what fair weather people would cancel their memberships over a decision to recruit somebody. A repeat offender druggie was a hero and a guy who is overcoming aggression issues is the devil... When he starts kicking goals and the excitement is at fever pitch, they wil miss out not us.

                            You can understand some people being a bit iffy regarding his temper on field, but not to re-sign up as members is pretty slack, however, those members can drop off, and i have no doubt we'll more than cover them with people jumping on board, and those that jumped, miss out on a chance to goto a GF.

                            Their loss!
