One half a dozen 'g' of 6k, final offer

Look, just give me a 'special k' and a 'g whiz' and we'll call it done and dusted...my attention span is now exhausted anyway

Can it be held near Lights statue on the grassy knoll? Only problem will be is picking who was the 45,785th shooter of Wee Licker.

I was thinking more like....no money for toilet paper - crowd will have to supply own unless free advertiser on game day

 

[finbarr]

It's probably nothing more than a united call for public calm and to ask us to hold our fire until the negotiations finish.

Adelaide Oval revenue deal to be re-visited

ADELAIDE'S two AFL clubs and the Stadium Management Authority will meet in July to revisit the distribution of revenue at Adelaide Oval.
Claims of poor earnings by Adelaide and Port Adelaide at home games at the redeveloped stadium have soured record attendances since it opened with a sellout Showdown in round two.
Crows CEO Steven Trigg and his Power counterpart Keith Thomas said the carve up of stadium revenue was a work in progress as both clubs and the SMA gathered data as to how successful Adelaide Oval was.

Is it impossible for Trigg not to come across as an A grade Campaigner?

 

[raman]

Sooo they called a press conference this morning to tell us what we already knew?

Never have I heard such a clueless, useless individual try and come across as being as in control and relevant as Trigg tries to.

 

[powermacs]

Not sure how relevant it is, but heard on the weekend it costs Port/The SANFL 15g to put us up and host the miners cup. It use to cost under 10k at AAMI

The person I know at the SMA said it was $50k to open up the stadium for a curtain raiser. Was also told they will be shutting the gates in the southern plaza so people can't use them to get into the legends bar. campaigners

Gets better, Villis tender wasn't even considered, despite potentially being a better deal, because Wee Licker had a fight with Mr Vili 20 years ago.

Is this serious? The Whicker and the Villi clans have been a fightin' an' a feudin' for near on 20 cotton pickin' years?!!

So that was no random hit and run a few weeks back

If you look in the dictionary, next to the word campaigner is a portrait of Trigg.

Sadly, that is not uncommon in SA - speaking from experience. We founded a business in '77 and some manufacturers lost business supplying our former employer, simply because they also chose to supply us.

Also happened to a friend who is an electrical engineer.

Adelaide can be an excruciatingly small minded town at times.

The Wee Licker Emporium for Stale Sausage Rolls Est 1991 doesn't take too kindly to direct competition.

Yes thats right.

The last thing you want is for the public to voice their opinion before its too late for that opinion to make any difference.

 

[manureid]

Yes thats right.

But nobody said anything when negotiations were going on, why come forward now?

 

[Forzaport]

Yes thats right.

Which coincidentally, is one of the first things the SMA would want.

You're talking about the gate where you walk down the stairs I assume. Nothing stopping the legends bar opening the gates on the war memorial drive side.
