Mine arrived yesterday.
Yes I want to see changes at the Raiders but it won't stop me from being a Raiders Member. I love the green team.
That's admirable, Red. But I think anyone who knows me knows how much I love the Canberra Raiders.

But I can't honestly continue to be a paid member while the club continues to be run the way it is. And if I can't make a statement by not paying for a membership or attending their games, then it seems to me there's no other way I can have a voice.
Have you considered writing a letter to Don Junior? Not e-mail, an actual letter.

People are known to give letters more time because they're tangible, easier to read (use Times New Roman which is meant for the printed page, unlike Arial or Helvetica) and the recipient sub-consciously gives them extra weight.

In many cases, it will illicit a written response or a phone call if you provide that detail.

They don't care, Yurithe.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

I think the club is very good in responding to their members. And I think they do care, but they can't please everyone and at times they take decisions that some or many fans don't agree with. Certainly, if I email the club, be it the CEO or others... I always receive a response. I doubt there are many clubs in the NRL where the CEO responds to emails from members.

How is this going to help with our halves problem?! They shouldn't sign anymore members until that is sorted!

Hey FROG... If you were on automatic renewal, you should have received your pack before Christmas. Better ask the Raiders about it: membership@raiders.com.au

I've got to say, the membership team at the Raiders are absolutely terrific... always so keen to help solve any issue. They're a great team.

I think that's because there's a logo that looks like a pin... but there is no pin.

Canberra Raiders break 12,000 mark for 2019 memberships

The Canberra Raiders have broken through the 12,000 barrier for 2019 memberships, hitting 12,398. That's slightly behind the 12,712 posted in late January last year. The Raiders broke the 20,000 mark for the first time in 2018 - though that figure is believed to have been boosted by memberships for locally registered rugby league players, with a sponsor also pushing the number over 20,000 just before membership sales closed.

The South Sydney Rabbitohs, Brisbane Broncos and Parramatta Eels head the pack, with the Canterbury Bulldogs, Manly Sea Eagles and Gold Coast Titans in the doldrums.

Membership numbers have lifted for the Rabbitohs, Eels, Knights, Tigers, Sharks, Warriors, Dragons, Roosters, Cowboys and Titans, compared with the same time last year - but are trailing for the Broncos, Storm, Panthers, Raiders, Sea Eagles and Bulldogs.

South Sydney Rabbitohs 27,298
Brisbane Broncos 25,049
Parramatta Eels 19,951
Melbourne Storm 18,332
Newcastle Knights 15,889
Wests Tigers 15,512
Penrith Panthers 13,846
Cronulla Sharks 13,279
New Zealand Warriors 12,713
St George Illawarra Dragons 12,403
Canberra Raiders 12,398
Sydney Roosters 12,065
North Queensland 11,351
Canterbury Bulldogs 10,153
Manly Sea Eagles 9,242
Gold Coast Titans 5,466

Speaking of sponsors, I was watching a doco about the NFL's Kansas City Chiefs and a player mentioned that sponsors competed for the right to wear a red jacket by selling memberships. Those who won were given the privilege of wearing their jacket and standing near the players' tunnel to welcome the side as they ran onto the field. Add logos or some other form of marketing for the successful sponsors and you could have something here.

With the influx of new faces, I hope they have something on the tables to say who the new players are.

British golfer Dame Laura Davies signs up as a member of the Canberra Raiders

Renowned British golfer Dame Laura Davies has joined the Canberra Raiders family after becoming a member of the club. After meeting Ricky Stuart last year at a golf event, Davies has quickly become an avid fan of the club.

“I’ve never been a massive rugby league follower but ever since I realised what he did here and what the team does for the community I thought I’d start following them,” Davies said.
