"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
I will be joining too 🙂
Does it cost money? Can’t seem to find that info anywhere.
Only $50 - but as it says when you follow the link provided by aardvaak - "This membership does not include entry to games."

Loose translation from the Latin is - I am tall, so I hit out.
I was eager to join until I realised it was just forking over $50 to say you are a foundation member and basically nothing else except a certificate to that effect. It's gotta include games and/or access to the players/staff to interest me.
All opinions are not equal. Some are a very great deal more robust, sophisticated, and well supported in logic and argument than others. -Douglas Adams, author (11 Mar 1952-2001)
They should have made it free for existing members. I mean, what do you actually get for the $50? A warm and fuzzy feeling?
I’m happy to support the club. I’ve spent hundreds over the last two years on memberships that have barely been used. I’ll happily pay to attend the AFLW games, but I’m not sure why I throw another $50 at the club for nothing.
There wouldn't be much point in it for the club if it were free. I get that lots of people have chosen to keep paying their memberships for the last two seasons with very little tangible benefit. No doubt the club is very grateful for that and understands they're relying on a lot of goodwill. But they still have a big hole in their finances, and now have to find the money to set up the AFLW infrastructure. So this is really a means to try and persuade existing members - even if just a few - to make a further financial contribution for which they will also get little tangible benefit. But it is entirely optional.
