Is Exc Dev Grants - Revenue net of the Vic government monies for Docklands stadium redevelopment? or are other items also deducted from Total Revenue given the 2 columns are the same up to and including 2017?

Yes its stadium grants for redevelopment as specified in annual reports
What do you do when you've made a $4.5m loss?
Put up an article at 9:53pm on a Friday night and don't include your annual report with it or have it immediately available on your website (unlike what you have done in all previous years).
Empathize it as an operating loss of only $200k by dubiously saying items such as paying out a coach are abnormal.

It is probably not that bad a result as they have included provision for future payments to Oliver but the tactics of the release are rather amusing.

$3mil on Oliver to 2030 and $900k for Goodwin is my guess. Makes 2025 look shit and future years a lot better under a new regime and new coach The cash is still at the bank.What do you do when you've made a $4.5m loss?

These are 2 abnormal moves to include them in 2025 accounts, but nor dodgy. They are basically provisions.
Goodwin will be paid out after 1st November for soft cap tax purposes and maybe spread into 2026 and 2027 footy financial years to minimize impact on soft cap expenditure and pay him interest to cover the payment by instalments rather than lump sum, or for only paying say 1/2 in 2026 and rest in 2027.
Unsurprisingly, the Pies are again rolling around in cash:

Collingwood announces 2025 financial result
The Collingwood Football Club has recorded a net statutory profit of $4.55 million for the financial year ending 31 October 2025, with total revenue from operating activities rising to $96 million, up from $85 million in 2024.
Predictably strong. At top line level it appears a very sound result. Although they should be making hay while the sun is shining! A well run club off field too.Unsurprisingly, the Pies are again rolling around in cash:

A slice of fried gold
Big increase in revenue for Collingwood nearly matched by a big increase in expenses.
From a pretty superficial look at the report the increase in expenses seems to be split roughly equally between "Commercial activities, membership and match day expenses", "team expenses", and the CFC Foundation (which was reported on separately in the past).
Will be interested to see if the match day and team expenses go up similarly at other clubs.

Correct. It’s a case of investing in growth. When membership and its related activities increases, so do servicing costs etc. It’s good to see a nice example of growth unlocking growth.
I don’t know if there were any league wider drivers that would assist revenue growth in gate takings etc. I think pricing at the gate was largely in line with prior years.
Bombers result will disappoint I’m hearing. Home crowds were down due to scheduling mainly but I understand the increase in expenditure in its footy department relating to medical and injury management were alarming. It increased membership pricing but I suspect it will likely report a poor statutory result but a reasonable cash result under the circumstances.

Essendon reports net profit of $170,000. Separating depreciation and land revaluations, the cash surplus for the year was $4.9M (in line with 2024).
AFL grant for Windy Hill upgrades for $660K supported the net profit result.
Overall a result reflecting very poor footy performance and scheduling of home games Thursday /Wednesday nights which also hurt attendances and stadium income.
- Total revenue $81.7M (+3.5%)
- Membership revenue +$620K
- Gate & Stadia revenue -$1.6M reflects footy performance

I suspect stadia revenue is also down due to the end of the club's favourable long term Marvel deal and it being given a revised deal that is the same as other tenant clubs.
I don’t believe so.
Essendon’s stadium & matchday returns were primarily driven lower by a mix of factors including:
- Mix of home games, only Richmond of the big clubs as home team
- 5/11 home games against interstate teams (incl Giants / Suns)
- 5/11 x Wed / Thurs night fixtures
- Poor on field fortunes
Stadium returns are even worse for mid week night games as fans also don’t drink and hospitality packages are unable to be sold
In 2026 the returns will likely be much stronger. It has Hawks, Pies & Blues at MCG as home games which guarantees a rebound. It also has more crowd friendly fixture slots.

I wish these clubs would follow the same criteria when releasing their financial results. The ones that have done well list it after interest, depreciation etc, the ones that have done poorly list their profit before that, so it's hard to compare them accurately and who is actually doing well or not.

Yes from a reporting perspective it makes sense... In reality, the result before depreciation and amortisation is the more meaningful figure. It truly reflects operating performance and working capital. The bottom line is impacted by non cash items which in essence are a little irrelevant when included in the ‘headline’ result.I wish these clubs would follow the same criteria when releasing their financial results.

Saints made a small $150k loss following this model (albeit they paid $1.5 million in debt off as well).

An important consideration is how much of the assets that are being depreciated were self funded in the first place.
The smaller clubs in particular have relied heavily on AFL and government money to fund their training bases.
