Welcome Audi good Sponsorship news

[wahawk]

Also I'd never noticed until I started working at one just how many insurance companies sponsor AFL clubs.

Pies - CGU
Brisbane - Vero
Sydney - QBE
West Coast - SGIO
Tigers - Bingle

Who does BUPA sponsor ?

 

[wahawk]

Ha ha, like the reference!

But Brad Hill has already outrun the police in Perth in a clapped out Hyundai.
In an Audi, they'll never even see him!

He was extremely unlucky to be seen by them in the Hundy.

You don't often see police over here on the roads. Not compared to when i was growing up in Vic

 

[wahawk]

Really impressed with this, the only other major international sponsors in the AFL that I can think of off the top of my head are Emirates at Collingwood, Volkswagen at Sydney and (maybe?) Reno at Port.

Do you really think that Toyotas are only sold in Oz ?

"We pushed hard for St Kilda and for the Bulldogs," said an AFL insider. "The fact is, the majority of big sponsorship deals don't originate with the clubs, they originate with companies approaching the AFL. We know what deals are available and try to help match up sponsors with clubs.""

"Oh yeah, we tried really hard to intervene in the business of our clubs, but unfortunately the sponsor took the financially sensible option rather than the one which would suit us better. It's a shame that financially independent licencees are allowed to do that... Oh well, I guess we'll go back to taxing them as if that is totally legal for a non-government organisation to do."

I think we'd find that this is just the Audi Australia branch sponsoring us. Same way that it's just the Ford Australia branch sponsoring Geelong. There'd be no money coming from Europe or America respectively with these deals. Still a really good sponsor to have.

I thought that in Australia expenses belong to local subsidiary and profits belong to head office?

Possibly. What I mean though is that whoever the people from Audi are behind this deal they would be in Australia, all the contacts, marketing and competitions/offers that happen will all be Australia based. Ask someone from Audi in Europe about the Hawthorn sponsorship deal and they'll just be like "wer?"

It's an international brand but this is still just an Australian sponsorship like all our others.

Toyota
Hyundai
Kia
Fiat
Renault
Jeep
Volkswagen

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Obviously Audi doesn't feel all this unsociable football is bad for their brand

Biggest selling car in Thailand, and probably Asia. Noe to mention where they sit in the States.

 

[smeltitdeltit]

You can say that again

Kias a vastly superior machine

 

[smeltitdeltit]

I think you can forget about any member discounts.

why not? I received a free Guernsey from origin energy. Kinda the same

 

[badgrill]

The AFL are so open to corruption it is mind boggling.

But luckily in this sort of scenario, the sponsor is the one who pulls the strings lol

 

[Cyrilyouchampion]

According to the Crime Statistics Agency, Audi's are the "getaway vehicle of choice for armed robberies".

Perhaps Audi should've sponsored the Dogs after all.

 

[Manila_Hawk]

This is what we need. A couple of brown and gold F1 cars

Poor old Jordan, he gets to drive this around for the next couple of weeks.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

And the Hilux is the Daesh vehicle of choice. Oh what a feeling!

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

So we can expect to see a bit of this in the club car park then?

Lose the Ross Lyon pose JL. Thx...


BTW who remembers the tv ad he did back in 06 or 07 for a Warnambool dealer?

If probably end up rear-ending it

Don't worry mate. Plenty of crumple zone front and rear.
