Hey Stig, just wondering how the club reconciles having a 'Sustainability Partner' in Metro Solar, while AGL, the biggest polluter in the country, is a 'Gold Partner'. AGL actively lobbies against the Renewable Energy Target. I would feel much better if we ****ed them off and used the Metro connection to cover every spare area at PRO with solar panels.

 

[Rumballs]

Got it - like a Tiger

Needs more

Drums good.
Old school music good.
No fake good.
Less blaring noise at half / qtr breaks good.

100% agree the publicity stunt of AGL putting in some low energy lights makes both them and us look bad.
The sooner we cease that partnership the better.

Fair call re. the drums - I'll bring it up Monday, although I'm not sure we want to make it into an all-out rock show. There won't be anything done for the Anzac Eve match, because there's a different pre-match schedule there, but I'll see what's said for the Geelong game.

We don't want to have speaker noise after goals. Round 1 showed this and the feedback we saw in pre-season and following round 1, we think, made it the right decision. Been to a couple of Crows games in recent years where they were 10 goals down and still blaring their Crow and calling for people to cheer - we could be wrong, but that's not what we want at our games, especially the margin part.

yeah the rock show example was a bit extreme, but they could be much louder without being offensive. Also i spose in hindsight the noise after carltons goal became a bit of a joke when they didnt score for almost 2 quarters, and i was like oh yeah that.

re the prowling tiger over 2 levels, looked great!!

Also has there been any discussion about choosing a set song to play pre game ie port Adelaide. try and get everyone to raise there scarfs. I know it doesnt come naturally to afl supporters, but soccer and closer to home port have shown it can be an incredible spectacle.

Also the massive tiger print over the cheer squad at 3/4 time looked great and should be seen as just the beginning for crowd interaction

Hi RFC_Official,
Is Daniel Butler injured? If not, is there any particular reason as to why he isn't playing in the VFL?

 

[Blinky_bill]

Hi RFC_Official

Can you tell me when the boys will be having a training session at the Gabba?
I think in the past it's been around 5pm on the Friday.

Cheers

Again please do not do this. The song at port is an absolute wank, let the fans make the noise. No artificial crowd gee ups or anything

I'm merely commenting on something the actually already exists. They already play artificial crowd gee ups as you call them. so my suggestion was to choose one and embrace it/ enhance it. and for whats its worth the port pre game from what ive heard from almost everyone the has experienced, apart from yourself of course, loves it

I was there last year. It was ok, but nothing special. It looked cool with the scarves up but IMO we were just as loud when they ran out(compared to the noise during never tear us apart)

 

[the push up king]

fair enough, and i suppose you have a better frame of reference then i do as i wasnt there. even still, if you combine the massive noise we made to combat theres like you are saying with a weekly uniform pre match anthem. and if it was truely embraced, it would be amazing. i suppose we will just have to agree to disagree

If we are doing before the game stuff we can just copy Bundasliga with ACDC.

Some short memories in here or maybe many just don't know. We tried the scarf above the head and tifo thing back in 2013, it got to the point where someone contacted the club about it, the idea was approved and encouraged. The first trial was against Collingwood. Unfortunately too many casuals in the cheer squad rejected the idea and made a huge fuss about it because it involved more effort than just sitting down and knitting, so the idea was almost immediately canned.

Can we please play this before our games? I'll attend just to hear this being belted out.

He's just got some knee soreness, was in the rehab group at training last week so not too far away

Im loving the dream time hat with the design under the brim- and looked at shopping online but am quite close to punt road so would rather pop in and save on shipping. Do you know if I'll risk missing out with this approach if their are limited numbers? Do you know an ETA on when they'll be produced? website says late may.

 

[scarecrow2k1]

RFC_Official , does the club have a policy of no tattoos during the season? I know some NRL clubs do and noticed the players come back tatted up from ore season and bye week only really.

Should be modelling

Clearly Chief wants some eye candy around the old fortress

We will be soon.

Any update on the snapchat?

Hey mate, still chasing this one up. Will hopefully have something for you soon - but I'd say there would be enough for you to come into the Shop when they're out.

Yep, me again - you'll be fine to come into the Shop in the week leading up to Dreamtime and pick up a hat then. Cheers.

Just an idea for a roar vision special.
I saw a video Port did where it was a behind the scenes look at when they picked Krakoure and Ahchee for their first games.
It showed match comittee, Hinkley telling the individual then when the rest of the players found out.
After doing the video showing Ellis when he was drafted it would be awsome to see a video like Ports for when he plays his first game.

This is ports one.

Good shout mate - did see this over the weekend. I think our first guernsey presentation ones are great, but it's always worth exploring more elements we can add to them to keep them different and more unique for each debutant. Hopefully Corey can push for the ones soon.
