  1. The Falcon Strike

    AFL announces 4.5billion, 7 year media deal (2025-2031 inclusive)

    excuse the edit Be interesting how these two conditions play together. Will SA/WA as an example still get games broadcast live FTA on Saturday? (holdbacks aside) Or are the AFL going to simply put our matches on a Sunday

    Gillon stepping down 2022 - Press Conference at 11:30am EST

    The board is ultimately responsible - so if they didn't want Gil negotiating on those items - they wouldn't let him. Clearly they think he will be best placed to achieve that agenda and let the new CEO work on other key strategies for growth

    Gillon stepping down 2022 - Press Conference at 11:30am EST

    Big decisions are already being made by females 3 our of 7 non executive directors are female on the board. So if you think the decisions have been ego fuelled, then women are equally at fault.

    Gillon stepping down 2022 - Press Conference at 11:30am EST

    Not if it is an internal promotion. Given the nature of some of the key strategies for the executive to complete this year, i reckon you'd get a fair idea as to the new CEO by who is heavily involved in the deal(s).

    Gillon stepping down 2022 - Press Conference at 11:30am EST

    In business, 6 years is a pretty long time for a CEO - it is a burnout type of job. I wouldn't be surprised if he planned to quit in 2020 - but didn't want to leave the AFL at it's darkest time of need. He has seen through that dark time into 2022 which should be relatively COVID free for the...

    He probably wouldn't want it givenhe has just started a new role - but the best administrator for three decades has been Brian Cook.

    What tangible onfield benefit do big rich clubs get from being big and rich these days?

    WCs advantage is we get to pour millions of dollars into grassroots footy

    Play Nice Which club has the biggest supporter base? Collingwood, Richmond or West Coast?

    File under works of fiction in the 21st century
  9. The Falcon Strike

    Play Nice Which club has the biggest supporter base? Collingwood, Richmond or West Coast?

    and that is after the millions that are channeled into grassroots footy as well no other club does that either

    Play Nice Which club has the biggest supporter base? Collingwood, Richmond or West Coast?

    Ok - you found me out Yeah normally I'd agree - but for 6 weeks I'm keeping it. Life > Football

    Play Nice Which club has the biggest supporter base? Collingwood, Richmond or West Coast?

    personally agree with this I would hate 7.30 games - wouldn’t be able to take my kids 5.30 works well for me

    Play Nice Which club has the biggest supporter base? Collingwood, Richmond or West Coast?

    If we are talking about most powerful... it’s definitely not the club being forced to uproot and move interstate to play their games it’s more likely the club(s) who refused to uproot, threw the toys out of the cot and had the AFL kowtow to them

    The state of the Giants and Suns

    I think the answer is one of existence. Carlton are s**t for another 10 years - you are still around. GC are s**t for another 10 years and they are a memory

    The state of the Giants and Suns

    Not completely against the idea - however it should be akin to the picks GWS got where they could trade it for mature talent. So give GC a pick behind whatever pick they get - however they have to trade it for players and they can't get in return any pick under pick 10. Their issue is player...

    MCG to host GF through to 2057

    2 things impress me Firstly, your intimate knowledge of the various business case for where certain games are played - that’s a great skill I’m sure developed over many years of higher education and extensive corporate experience And secondly, your absolute commitment to the trying to believe...

    MCG to host GF through to 2057

    Keep up the good fight - you’re doing well Let’s move all prelims to the mcg too for the commercial benefit as well

    MCG to host GF through to 2057

    Kudos to anyone still continuing the fight that holding the grand final solely at the MCG is anything other than entrenched and league sanctioned Victorian bias The flat earthers would be proud of you
  18. The Falcon Strike

    Are these figures right?

    Same could be said of the AFL executive and board The comp and coverage is still very Vic Centric though. The media pander to the biggest market and that is Victoria because financially it makes sense.

    Are these figures right?

    I reckon the solution would be to have more Carlton games on Friday night

    MCG to host GF through to 2057

    So no answer then... just distraction

    MCG to host GF through to 2057

    Remind me how many of the MCG seats are actually available to the public and not pre-committed? Remind me how many major sporting events in the world are limited solely to size of the nation's biggest stadium? All for a paltry $225m over 40 years.

    MCG to host GF through to 2057

    Lol.. not even trying to hide it
  23. The Falcon Strike

    Should the GF be played at a Neutral venue?

    For starters - members of a cricket club
  24. The Falcon Strike

    Should the GF be played at a Neutral venue?

    Perfect - then Melbourne gets to host it 60% of the time Seems a fair outcome.
  25. The Falcon Strike

    Should the GF be played at a Neutral venue?

    Bring the game to the people!
  26. The Falcon Strike

    Should the GF be played at a Neutral venue?

    And if people are worried about ticket prices - increase them by a factor of (100000:60000) I can assure you paying $400 for a ticket is cheaper than $250 plus flights and accommodation.
  27. The Falcon Strike

    Should the GF be played at a Neutral venue?

    Should be left to cycle amongst the venues with the most amount of uncompromised ticketing.
  28. The Falcon Strike

    Suns flight to China delayed

    As a team - i would have thought every spare business class seat would have gone to players who are either tall or old. Rocket having a creaky back isn't as bad as Gary Ablett having one
