2016 Membership Thread - Can we break the current all time Bulldog record again

[Eastdog]

I know it's early but thought I'll get this thread underway now.

[I'm Not Bitter Anymore!]

Got an email from the club today. I'm a lifer

[Eastdog]

Got an email from the club today. I'm a lifer

Me too. Renewed today and added the social club to my reserve home silver membership for next year. Social Club add on will come in handy when we make the Grand Final.

[Eastdog]

2016 Bulldogs Membership Tally: 390 and many many many many more to come.

[strebla]

Just foe everyone's information las time we played finals social club sold out so if your a lifer and you want a guaranteed GF tic get on early.

[Greystache]

Concerningly I got an invoice from the club in an email for $995 for 3 types of membership. I buy an AFL membership and chuck in a gold premiership membership as a token donation. Maybe they think my pockets are deeper than I'm putting in :)

[G-Mo77]

I signed up for the Turbo Package again on top of my Social Club Silver Adult Home & Away/VFL renewal. Also opted in for the "Pay it Forward" option.

FYI you don't get to choose a size for your Polo shirt when you sign up for Turbo or a Polo shirt, someone from the club will ring you and confirm your size. I rang this morning with my concerns about not choosing a size and did it myself. I was told they'd be ringing members who added the option. Hopefully they sort that out so members can just choose their size.

[bornadog]

Prediction: 40,000 barrier will be broken in 2016

I also selected the turbo package and noticed that there wasn't a size option. I was thinking I might receive an email asking for sizes. Thank you by confirming they will be in touch. I also ticked for a extra shirt for my son, do you think there will be a issue putting in for two different sizes or the fact that my son isn't a member.

I'd get on the phone and ask about that HD60. I don't think they'd have an issue with it.

Surely there is more 'Bulldogs for Life' than that, I reckon there is more than that just on Woof.

I don't think we'll be counted until we start getting charged which I think is Oct 28th.

[Mantis]

I've done my bit - My latest addition is already signed up in the 'Born a Bulldog' program... I assume they get counted.

What's the capacity for the social club strebla?

Yes I believe you are number 463 Easty

[strebla]

Not sure but I know I have 4 which is me my two boys and for now my ex. I know when I first asked they were sold out so I will now not give them up.

[I'm Not Bitter Anymore!]

I think it was 10,000 then went up to 15,000 a couple of years ago

[Eastdog]

Thanks for that. Yep Im looking forward to the Social Club next year being my first time adding it on. Should be good to go in there have a drink with fellow Doggies people.

[Eastdog]

Got my membership confirmation email on Tuesday.

[Eastdog]

Can you add Social Club to an AFL membership with Bulldogs support? As I'm a silver AFL member I wouldn't get access to GF tickets if we got there.

Yes, I do it. I find it easiest to call up to arrange it.

Nearly up to the first 1000.

2016 Bulldog Membership tally: 975

Not sure it can be that many as it garuntees a GF ticket and every day members deserve a crack at them too I will check it out.

Although I sign up every year I'm not on auto renewal.......yet this year received an email thanking me for signing up for 2016. Hmmmm.

[Axe Man]

Although I sign up every year I'm not on auto renewal.......yet this year received an email thanking me for signing up for 2016. Hmmmm.

Something weird happened with the membership emails this year - I am a Bulldog for Life and got 2 identical membership confirmation emails 5 days apart. Hope they aren't charging me twice!

[hujsh]

Need help and figured it'd be easier to ask here than bother to call the club.

With the membership form checking if I need to update my details there is the option to chip in some money to the club for either memberships for people, the footy department, community stuff or the woman's team.

1. If i tick every box will I donate to all
2. How do I actually go about sending it the the club? There's no real instructions or anything.

Thanks in advance for helping me contribute the the club we all love

[Twodogs]

Not sure Hujsh, sorry.

[ledge]

I became a bulldog for life this year , paying in installments, so much easier.
Must admit its only my 9th year in a row but have been a member on and off since 1974.

[strebla]

I am a member since 83 Ledge and love that it says so on my membership ��

[LostDoggy]

I am a member since 83 Ledge and love that it says so on my membership ��

Very cool year to have joined up Strebla (aside from the impressive longevity). For the younger woofers - 83 was a big year for the Dogs, after years of hopelessness, we saw light at the end of the tunnel that year with the recruiting/senior debuts of no less than 16 players; including the likes of Stephen Wallis, Brian Royal, Peter Foster, Michael MacLean, Andrew Purser, Bruce Duperouzel, Jim Sewell, Mark Kellett, Ian Williams, Chris Hansen and other fine servants of the club.

[Danny the snakeman]

I'm in , ordered the members polo as well.

[LostDoggy]

I'm on board again.
Have been since '78.
Got the polo too.Now I can interchange with the other 5 or 6 that I have and wear won nearly every day of the week :rolleyes:
Love the Avatar Snakeman.
Very Jealous. :p

[F'scary]

For 2016 I am going to get an additional junior membership and... I have a mate who is switching to the Western Bulldogs now that he lives in the western suburbs and he seems pretty keen to become a FC member (him + a junior) and is saying we'll be going to matches together next season (which I would welcome)! Took him to the 2nd vs Saints match last year, he was impressed with our team and liked the fact that Etihad is so handy. I will keep reeling him in as best I can. Over and out.

[Twodogs]

Keep up the good work FS.

[F'scary]

I can tell you 2D that it is any easy sell to him with the way the team plays under Bevo and the marquee players we now have. Amazing how far we have come in one season.

So true.

I have been getting a few locals who barrack for other clubs in with the "you can come and barrack for Footscray without being a Western Bulldogs fan" line. And then waited a while before I started up with the "you know, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense you barracking for Footscray and not the Western Bulldogs because one week you are barracking for the boys but barracking against them when they get into the AFL. You should become a Western Bulldogs supporter" I've got 3 that way so far.

Brilliant.
That's another 800 members in just under 2 weeks.
If we keep tracking at that rate we might just smash through 40k!!! :D

[LostDoggy]

That is more members than we had at end of year in 2000 (was 18,056). Fair effort 4 months before the season ever starts.

[KT31]

The 'Bulldogs for Life' does us a bit of a false economy compared to previous seasons.

[LostDoggy]

Still pretty handy to surpass a year end total this far out. Healthy growth in 15 years.

[bornadog]

Saints have passed 20k

[KT31]

Agree, we have been far from embarrassing in that period but imagined if we had won a flag or two.

Just need to give out another 20,000 memberships to the next corporate sponsor they sign. It would take their total number of give aways to 50,000 :rolleyes:

Got my members ticket in the mail last night. How long till round one?

[Dancin' Douggy]

I honestly hope we never get THAT big.
One of the luxuries of barracking for the dogs is that it's easy to get in to most games without organising too far ahead.

50,000 members if we could get to that would allow us to to be in a position to play a bit more at the G of course still playing having a lot of our home games at Etihad.

You don't give up do you Easty ;)

[Eastdog]

You don't give up do you Easty ;)

To be honest I'm used to Etihad now and our supporters like it there but more MCG exposure for finals I think is very important although in that elimination final against the Crows we did quite well on the G with not a lot of exposure there during the season.

What do you think of the scarf? I think it's a bit of a dog's breakfast no pun intended

[LostDoggy]

I upgraded from a 3 game to a GA Home game's membership this year, there will be quite a few unused games but it's a couple more dollar's to the club :)


What do you think of the scarf? I think it's a bit of a dog's breakfast no pun intended

I received my pack today, and yes it is a little underwhelming, good thing I'm not a scarf guy.

[ledge]

I down graded from social and cheersquad to just home games .. A few reasons, I'm 52 and was only in cheersquad as a donation, we are getting bigger now and I don't want to stop a kid getting membership in cheer squad.
2 I go to all the VFL home games and they don't time the social club with the VFL games so I tend to miss social club before the game and I hear that will be booked out so don't want to stop someone who can go going.

[hujsh]

scarf was a nice change. I've got plenty of caps

Whilst your reasons are valid the added bonus that social club members get a guaranteed GF ticket (if/ when we make one) means even if you don't use the add-ons it's still a good insurance policy.

[Bulldog4life]

Agreed. That's the only reason I upgraded.

[Eastdog]

Agreed. That's the only reason I upgraded.

Me too as well but will definitely make use of the social club at Etihad next year. Great for pre game drinks. Could downgrade very slightly in the future and go for a spot in the Footscray end but currently I'm happy with my silver membership.

[Eastdog]

Whilst your reasons are valid the added bonus that social club members get a guaranteed GF ticket (if/ when we make one) means even if you don't use the add-ons it's still a good insurance policy.

You can pretty much add the Whitten social club on with any level of Bulldog membership you have.

[Murphy'sLore]

The scarf does look (and feel) a bit on the cheap and nasty side. It'll be fine for hanging out the car window at the end of games though :)

I still keep going back to the plain blue 'pashmina' from a few years ago, I love that thing.

[whythelongface]

Whilst your reasons are valid the added bonus that social club members get a guaranteed GF ticket (if/ when we make one) means even if you don't use the add-ons it's still a good insurance policy.

Is there a cap on the social memberships a club can sell? If there isn't then there is the potential for social club membership to exceed club GF ticket allocation. Thus not guaranteeing a GF ticket (not that we, as a club, would be in that position at the moment).

Yes. 10,000. All the high end memberships have social club attachments included with them.

We sold out in 2010 I think it was.

Yes I tried to upgrade my boys and my wife at the time and was unable to.I upgraded all all in 2011 so have 4 social clubs and will not downgrade as a member for life it lessens the pain but think of the pain of missing out on GF tics!!!!!

[Danny the snakeman]

Usually crap in the membership pack, living in perth disappointed there no cap as definitely no need for scarf over here. Members polo was ok tho, happy with that much better value than the media polo's

Agree, being in the sunny North I value head protection rather than getting hot and sweaty in the middle of winter. Hence I took the extras. The scarf don't know what I will do with that.

[Hotdog60]

Actually just thinking about it the club should get members that are in a warmer climate to tick a box for a t shirt rather than a scarf the price should be much different.

[azabob]

Then why didn't you opt out of getting the extras?

Scarfs not an extra and polo im happy with, not sure what extras you on about.

There is a box you can tick to opt out of any of the extra items like stickers, key rings or whatever they come up with for the year.

[Danny the snakeman]

Ah with ya now.

[LostDoggy]

I was really happy to get a scarf instead of another hat, so many caps and I cant bear to throw one out, I just moved house and heaps of stuff was turfed but not a doggies cap... its a sickness :)

Best Xmas presents for our family including myself (cheer squad and social club).
There is currently a waiting list for cheer squad.. Social club members is at approx 8,500.. Get in before the cut off of 10,000
The Xmas parties were a great opportunity to chat to players and show our appreciation and gratitude for the fabulous season we just experienced in 2015 😘

I may change to another type of Bulldog membership in the future currently have a reserve silver which I'm happy with but yes EJ social club is for the GF tics and is highly recommended no matter what level of membership you have.

Just admit you're a tightarse
Nothing to do with giving other kids the opportunity
You can always go and sit in the general seating with a cheer squad membership..
If we all backed off buying tickets cause we believed the club was getting bigger.. Then there is no point in building our profit if people will pull away just because we are doing well..

[Eastdog]

We absolutely can get past 21,500 West-Dog and look on track. Was great to be a Bulldog member and be part of when we broke our all time membership record last year. Hopefully we can break another record as the title of the thread suggests.

I just but an extra membership and give him the scarf, I haven't actually signed up for a pet membership before. I was thinking about it but he's usually too big for normal pet stuff, so I thought it might be a waste.

[w3design]

It's no secret that we have become one of the fastest growing clubs regarding memberships..
I just received our fifth parcel today and no, I'm not opening it until Xmas morning... They're presents I buy for my children and myself.. But in saying this.. I was wondering whether there were some special sacks or bins at the kennel where we could deposit new merchandise that we don't use from our membership packs... And the scarves and key rings etc (I'm not sure what's in the packs) can be given to schools in the western suburbs dropped off by players?
Just a thought.. It's nice to put a smile on children's faces, and it doesn't cost us anything xxx jill

I just but an extra membership and give him the scarf, I haven't actually signed up for a pet membership before. I was thinking about it but he's usually too big for normal pet stuff, so I thought it might be a waste.

It's a complete waste, you don't get anything useful, it's just a little donation to the club (your extra membership is a bigger donation). My 2 year old also has a born a bulldog membership (although she did get a nice little beanie this year), and number 2 due in April will get one as well. Hopefully all will be lifelong bulldogs members - the dog definitely will be!

Off the top of my head Ejay has received the following for her pet membership: 2 travel water bowls, a tiny little fleece that a chihuahua might be able to sleep on, a frisbee that lasted about 30 seconds before it got chomped and a fridge magnet photo frame that my daughter decided to tear into pieces. It's a close run race between the bulldog and the kid as to who is more destructive.

Signed up last week as well as the girlfriend who goes for Richmond but is now a dogs member (but not a member of her preferred club), she doesn't know it yet, I am sure it will go down as a great Valentines day present lol Trying to get 2 reserved seats on the website was painful in the end I gave up and went into the club to sort it out. I know it is a Ticketmaster website but if others find it hard to do they could just give up and wait till the family day or game day to sign up.

My reserved seat is around Level 1 Aisle 33. Are you fairly close or maybe up on Level 2. I've been very happy with where I've been the last couple of years since becoming a member.

For woofers in the Footscray end near the cheer squad is that also another good area as well.

I cannot remember a time when I have felt so upbeat about a coming season. Why? Because I really feel we have the depth in our list to deal with all eventualities barring a catastrophic run of injuries. We have a coach with a proven track record with the material at his disposal and he has gathered a solid coaching team around him. We have recruited well and we have a set of young stars who are now entering the best and most productive years of their footballing careers. We are at the beginning of an era - BELIEVE - it's our time, it's going to happen.

Bulldogs crack 25k members in record time (http://www.westernbulldogs.com.au/news/2016-02-09/25k-members-in-record-time)

The Bulldog pack is building at a rapid rate, with the Club breaking through the 25,000 member mark in record time on Tuesday.

It’s the fastest the Bulldogs have reached the membership milestone, and the first time in the Club’s history that it has been achieved in the month of February.

The current tally of 25,086 sees the Club tracking nearly two months ahead of last year.

It wasn’t until March 26 last year that the club surpassed the 25,000 member mark.

The Bulldogs broke their all time membership record last year in 2015, reaching 36,213 on the back of their return to finals football for the first time in five years.

Western Bulldogs Chief Executive David Stevenson told westernbulldogs.com.au it was an important milestone for the Club to achieve this early in the year.

“This is a great achievement for the Club and is the result of our passionate fans getting on board early to ensure they don’t miss a minute of the action.”

“To those that are yet to jump on board, we say to them the season is just around the corner so the time is now to Be More Bulldog and join us.”

Football returns at the end of the month, with the Bulldogs just over a fortnight away from their first match of the NAB Challenge against the GWS Giants on 25 February.

Western Bulldogs access members can scan in for free access to Bulldogs matches throughout the NAB Challenge series.

The Bulldogs’ first Victorian match of the NAB Challenge is ten days later, on Sunday 6 March against Melbourne at Craigieburn, before facing Collingwood at Etihad Stadium on Saturday 12 March.

Awesome result thus far. A few early wins in the season and we will continue to see membership soar.

This just reminded me we had a little competition a bit earlier to guess the final membership numbers. I've been meaning to list the guesses from highest to lowest so we can tick them off as we get closer to the end of the year. For the record:

It's funny when you dig down into AFL club membership numbers.

For me, there are sheer numbers of members, but then beneath the surface there are "reduced game access" membership numbers (ie. 3 gamers) and, thirdly, there is sheer membership revenue - which I think is the most reliable gauge.

Collingwood, for example, have close to 60% more members than West Coast. However West Coast have close to 60% more membership revenue than Collingwood!!

This is because West Coast's memberships are 97% full home access, whilst Collingwood have about 35% of their memberships as 3 game members!

Hawthorn and Richmond have the 2nd & 3rd highest membership numbers, but the 6th & 7th highest membership revenue. Both have large numbers of 3 game members.

Aside from GWS, the largest proportional number of 3 game members of any club is Norf. Nearly 40% of their membership base is compiled of 3 game members. Despite claiming about 5k more members than us, their membership revenue only just pips us. It's clearly a pinch of 3 game Hobart members and toe-dippers at Norf. Spend $3,000 to join a coterie and you count as 1 member. Spend $60 on a 3 game membership and you also count as 1 member...

I'm not bagging 3 game memberships. It's a legitimate and canny way of bringing supporters into a club. However, at different stages, the 3 game numbers do inflate the overall figures. This flattering some. Membership revenue is the best figure to use. The AFL gets all excited about membership growth, however a huge amount has been generated by these restricted access memberships.

[ledge]

Where did or do we fall in percentage wise ?

Lots of 3 game memberships are given away too. We handed a lot out last year through sons of the west and Norf through their Horn of Africa program. It's a great way to get people to dip their toe and see if AFL is for them.

Good post. In my opinion Webby it is the only figure to use. Have thought so for years.

[Webby]

Where did or do we fall in percentage wise ?

We're a bit above 25% at last look. Although that will probably swell once Ballarat kicks off. Point is, an extra 4,000 three game members only equates to about another $200k of revenue. The equivalent of about 25 decent coterie members.

When you consider Collingwood have about 20,000 to 25,000 three game or less members, there are some pretty inflated figures bouncing around Victoria.

[Eastdog]

Could be 41,352 :)

[Webby]

One big thing I took out of the season launch speeches was David Stevenson's quote that we've already surpassed our membership revenue for last season in its entirety.

As stated earlier, membership revenue, as opposed to sheer membership numbers is a far more reliable gauge of a club's strength. Under that guise, I walked away with a bit of a spring in my step. It was extremely promising news.

[Nuggety Back Pocket]

A base of 40,000 should now be the goal in an attempt to move away from the AFL drip feed mentality that has dogged the Club for far too long. It would seem that we now have a talented off field management team, a strong coaching panel and a strong playing list. Overcoming the debt of $10 million dollars needs to be a priority which can be achieved by sustained success from 2016 onwards for many years. It is great to think that we can look forward to a bright future.

[I'm Not Bitter Anymore!]

Dogs hit 30,000 members (http://www.westernbulldogs.com.au/news/2016-03-22/dogs-hit-30000)

The Western Bulldogs have today reached a significant membership milestone, hitting 30,000 members five days out from their opening round clash with Fremantle on Easter Sunday.

The achievement sees the Club 5,300 members ahead of the same time last year, a 22 per cent increase, and also on track to break the Club’s membership record of 36,213 reached in 2015.

Bulldogs Chief Executive Officer David Stevenson said the milestone was recognition of the outstanding support shown by the Club’s members.

“To see such significant improvement on last year’s number shows great confidence from our members.

“Thanks to the ongoing support of our existing members and the enthusiasm of our new members, we continue to build momentum heading into the 2016 season on and off the field.”

The Club has seen significant membership increase across all categories from last season, including a 19 per cent increase on reserved seat members and a 19 per cent increase on junior memberships.

Social club membership, the only membership that can guarantee supporters a grand final ticket should the Club participate has seen a 25 per cent increase and is nearing capacity.

The Club is also engaging with lapsed members through its Lost Bulldogs campaign, encouraging lapsed members to find their way back to the kennel, which has seen a significant amount of members re-sign for 2016.

Interesting to see where we are at around Wednesday.

And wonder how many will join as a result of yesterday.
