Tigers in Tasmania?

[tiger_tough]

Thoughts?

If it means getting out of the obligatory Marvel home games then I'd probably be okay with it.

Hmm well that’s taken me by surprise , I reckon if we named the price that it could be a goer for 2y as we need funds for punt rd . For 2 seasons it prob has my support , how many games we talkin

Edit ;; 2 games at Hobart , prob pre season maybe

 

[RoaringTiger]

lol norf

Hard pass. People need to get over their hatred of Marvel. A scheme like this will screw us when we want to make finals in a couple of years time.

"The proposal has the Tigers moving a game or two down to Hobart (away from Marvel Stadium)."

Sign me up, always wanted to visit Tassie, now I've got a good excuse.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

We'll do it for Devils 1st & 2nd rnd pick

So they’re not our home games ?

I dont think the players care about playing at Marvel, it's the fans that hate the place.

Plus by the time were next contending for finals there will be heck all Dimma era players left.

1million a game SOLD

Yes , hopefully the marvel home games

Right. And by the fans hating it so much the players get punished by having to play in Tasmania.

 

[Andyy]

Wonder how much they're offering but surely it's over $1m/game. Possibly 2.

Absolutely do it for the marvel home games. No brainer.

Need the money to finish PRO redevelopment.

 

[sanaya]

reckon banks & campbell are strong arming us and this is part of their deals

 

[Underarm]

Also 2 games means we lose an MCG game.

 

[tiger_tough]

So they’re not our home games ?

They would be. Would mean we get out of the mandatory once a season Marvel home game. Not sure how the 2nd one would work. My guess would be we get an extra home game for 2 seasons cos theres no chance the club go for it if ones an away game.

If we put a price on it, would your view change?

2 Marvel games

Hardly a punishment. They'd probably enjoy it, especially the younger lads.

2 Marvel games

We don't play 2 Marvel games though, right? We play 1.

 

[tiger_tough]

Id book tickets as soon as the fixture is released tbh. I love tassie.

 

[Underarm]

What value do you put on 2 extra losses? It cost us finals in 2012 playing GC in Cairns.

I'd want the club to explain why we are so desperate for the cash that we'd sell an MCG game.

There’s nothing wrong with Tasmania, definitely not a punishment. I would travel there. Lovely place.
