2015 Non-Crows AFL Discussion - Pt. 1

[Doc_]

I really, really can't see Public Enemy doing pre-game entertainment at an AFL match.

Who?

I really, really can't see Public Enemy doing pre-game entertainment at an AFL match.

That's just a massive guess on their part since their 2015 slogan is "Bring the Noise"

 

[Mattrox]

They just made a $2.5m loss. They can't afford public enemy. Especially if they aren't touring.

 

[Pdub]

Public enemy's song "fight the power" will go great for ports pre game.



Jay Schulz is 30, the way he plays, he's not guaranteed to play next year. Without Schulz port will just make up the numbers in the top 8 unless they can get someone like Jeremy Cameron to replace him.

They can't afford public enemy.

Who?

After playing 10 seconds of the clip posted above, I dont understand why you think a club would want to alienate 90% of its supporters.

I remember signing up to Bigfooty 7 years ago and reading Mike Smyth under a different username proclaiming that Port had amassed a perfect list that was set to dominate the competition for the next 6-7 years.

He's Nostradamus i tell you!

We might as well just give in to the Port machine now and enjoy infinite premierships.

What name was that?

 

[Bacon8]

Tim Farris (INXS guitarist) was recently in a boating accident and mangled his hand and severed a finger, so they're thinking it'll be a while before he'll be able to play guitar again.

Another reality TV show for them then.

That home guernsey looks awesome when you see it from a distance and the blue hoops look black.

The dirty look

 

[Sanders]

How does Port have a perfect team with a dodgy defence and a forward line with no KPP depth?

 

[Niximus]

Hmm, seen some Port fans speculate they're having Chemical Brothers or Public Enemy play pre-game at their first home game.

So they're just copying us?

 

[baldandbroke]

Gotta say I am a huge Public Enemy fan, but cannot see them as being fitting for a family day at the footy !!

And while it is of interest to some - I must say "who Power have performing before their season opener" should rank down near the bottom of my list of "things to discuss on BF" - and yet here I am ?

God help us - start the effing season already. Even an irrelevant pre-season game will be a welcome relief.

Hopefully the Essendon / ASADA stuff gives up something to distract us next week

Essendon shit is just a page turner

I don't give a ****. Whack them and lets get on with it. Its been 2 ****ing years

I'd say there is a bit more meat left on the Essendon bone than the entire "pre-game entertainment" menu.

The same way we have an awesome list yet have missed the finals the past 2 years.

According to this they charge about 20-30k+ Of course this would just be their fee, would not include set up and the cost of getting them to Adelaide and staying here.

While I was being tongue un cheek, if they are paying huge sums for pre game bands while struggling to make a profit their priorities are out of whack.

I hope the have PE for their showdown and they play Fight the Power....

How much would their rider be but? I'm thinking in excess of $200,000.

Could not imagine they could fly anything but first class or watch to stay in some crappy motel chain.

Unless Public Enemy is in Adelaide - they would not be cheap.

 

[AFC3000]

Port been to one of our later home games to see how it should be done?

No one is flying to Adelaide from any where other than Australia to collect $20,000 - $30,000 split 5(?) ways plus managers, booking agents, and whatever else. Would cost a lot more.

wait. I've always seen a page turner as something you're reading and can't wait to turn the page because of it's interest or excitement. I'm guessing you use 'page turner' as something you can't wait to turn the page to get rid of? I guess it works either way, but yes, just get on with it - whack them HARD and do it soon!

Getting a second rate sydney celebrity to say a few words and be entertained at the alice springs cup carnival for 3 days was about $8k in cash. Flights, accom etc on top of that.

That. I have no interest in reading about it. I'll read about it when they get their medicine (pun intended)
