But there’s 1900 more?

 

[gokangas]

But there’s 1900 more?

Surely their names are available on the dark web? Everything else seems to be.

 

[hilly]

Mine arrived at my current address just after Xmas. The club sent the rest of the family's to the wrong address, and Australia Post lost the parcel. Called the club, and still waiting for the replacement membership packages to arrive. Their databases aren't great.

I've also been cleaning out the garage, and found a heap of old membership cards. Somewhere, I'll have more cards going back to the 90s, but here's everything I found from 2001-2023. I can't find 2005, 2006 and 2009, but there is a random Pennant Club without a date, but has Primus as the sponsor, so I'm assuming that's from 2005 or 2006?

Do other people keep their membership cards?

Mostly

The earliest is 1992

I had card ones from the 1970’s but idk where they are

It was great to have them physically clipped by the attendants

You knew you went by the end of the season

This gag has officially jumped the shark.

 

[Roosurgence]

Hit the 20 years as a member this year. Wow! Time flies.

Also marks that I stopped playing footy 20 years ago.

Have the replacement games been announced yet?
If so, can someone please share which games they are…

Probably my first membership.

 

[ferball]

I had one of them. Probably my first or second too.

But I've been inconsistent with keeping them over the years.

They haven't, but you can essentially predict which ones they'll be.

Round 8 vs St Kilda
Round 10 vs Essendon
Round 23 vs Western Bulldogs

I'd bet a fair amount of money those will be the replacement games for 2024.

I just checked and they actually are up! You were right, just missing the Melbourne game in round 15 too.

Probably my first membership.

Getting the ticket punched, was a badge of honour. You didn't want to miss going to a game with those paper tickets! I think my first membership in that style was a complimentary Essendon membership via my "little league team", as that's were my primary school was.

Naturally I destroyed it.

Essendon replacement games are the pits and bring me massive amounts of rage.

 

[kool kangas]

This might need to be moved to another thread. Mods please do so if needed.
After receiving an email to receive our complimentary tickets to the Saints practice match nothing l tried got me complimentary tickets. This is what l found out.
1: It seems that the complimentary tickets will be on the mobile apps closer to the game otherwise you have to pay $5.00 per ticket if you want it now
2: The complimentary ticket DOES NOT guarantee axcess to the game if it is a sellout. Sellout is estimated at around 8000.
3: The club doesnt think it will be however dont be upset if you cant get in.
Hope this helps..

Sounds like a good deal to me.

Hopefully they are rubbish once again and down the ladder where they belong, keeping plenty of their fans away.
