What more needs to be said?
Foots ok now he's just playing shit and/or underdone


Sloane not on the injury list either, was sure someone on here said he was playing on one leg. Looks like Daisy was right again
No news on Betts either, you did play last Friday yeah? youd think4-5 days later there would be some news for all the adoring members


Sloane said after the match he struggles to do much before the Tuesday after the game. Commentators were in disbelief that he and the Crows are allowing this to happen with it only being round 4 in a 23 round season

Until the audits are done and they have 20k taken off them again.

"The number of Crows women’s team members has more than doubled this year, and the Club also continues to see strong support for its digital We Fly As One membership.

The membership figure is expected to continue to grow as the Club still has 3-game Bronze membership packages available for 2018 as well as Victorian General Admission memberships. For more information visit 19thman.com.au."

Just because it doesn't match with "AFL audit" requirements, doesn't mean there are not that many members.
Sure it will come down when they use their dick measuring tool but we are definitely a club that needs to worry about membership numbers!

I used to be counted as 3 full Crows members and 3 full Port members when I had Adelaide Oval membership. A bit silly as I only wanted to use it for mainly Geelong games and SANFL finals.
And yet MCC members aren't counted as members of clubs that play home games at the MCG. :?
The Adelaide clubs really do take the piss out of the membership numbers.

It does matter when you can go online and give the Crows your name and address and this be counted as a “member”. No other club does this and I believe there were even Port fans taking the piss out of the Crows and registering online as Jake Lever [emoji3]
Unless you have match day tickets you are not a member

agree with this

would love to see multi match ticket revenue as a stat. that is really what matters.

reckon the crows would do pretty well in that regard as they have a pretty high percentage of 11 game members and are pretty pricey

At the end of the day, what does it really matter. As long as the measuring tool is consistent so clubs can track rates of improvement.
Unless all clubs have identical membership packages, you can't even compare.

I'd take the ambiguity out of the equation and count anyone who has paid up as a member of the club. Most I think are around the $50 mark.

You can be a club member without having match day tickets, that's the essence of a club member.If you want another measure then tally the 11 home game ticket holders.

That, IMO, would be the best way to demonstrate membership numbers, two tally's.

For instance, Adelaide will never be able to offer all their members a ticket to 11 home games.

It’s matters because despite the AFL telling the Crows what the requirements are to constitute a membership they still produce their own reports which are clearly wrong. Every other club in the comp can get it right

So the Crows are the only club who's numbers differ from the AFL.
If the AFL are putting out their own figures then go by that number, who cares what the crows say they have. Storm in a teacup.
How many cats & dogs are included in club tallies that differ from the AFL requirements.

Are you saying every other club in the league matches their declared memberships with the AFL audit? please...

No they don’t but don’t believe any other clubs have anywhere near the massive variance the Crows do. I don’t understand why any club has to do it including ours. The AFL guidelines are there, whatever the figures are so be it so why invent numbers just for show

Sponsors, it's a number to flash in front of sponsors to show either the exposure they're getting or the exposure they could get.
