Sponsorship News - Optus signs on for 4

[Geoffa32]

Standby for MediaWatch to be denounced as an AFC puppet and enemy of the people.

Is there no end to the reach of Fagan, Master of the Mediaverse....

You have to handle it to our administration.

World class spin doctors and media manipulators if all allegations are to be believed.

Put Putin and Xi Jinping to shame.

We planted all the negative news stories about the camp last year just to throw Port supporters off the scent, but they are too smart for Fagan.

I haven't watched Media Watch since the 90s.
Might watch tonight, though

Stuart Littlemore was the last host I saw

Didnt the Optus guy say multi million per year.

Not sure who said it it, but there was a suggestion last year our jumper and shorts combined sponsorships were worth nearly $5m a year. Just behind Collingwood and WCE.

No idea, I just welcomed the #clarification as to when you were allowed to have a sponsor in direct competition with the AFL's major sponsors and when you weren't.

I think I’ll be drinking ‘no beer’ this year at AO out of principle. What they are charging is extortion and is only going to lead to harder liquor being ‘smuggled ‘ in.

already happens mate...

 

[Cuzz09]

Just dont go to AO at all.

I have a friend who brings a thermos in to every game. And she sits and sips on a lovely red throughout the game.

 

[jo172]

So as far as I can gather, what some Port supporters claim to be upset about is that a Port Sponsorship press conference is an inappropriate time to question GFC about negative aspects of its business. The pecularity of this logic aside, let's put the hypothetical, if the Banking Royal Commission had dragged out a series of inappropriate s**t from Chapman's days at St George's and Bank SA, would questioning him about that at AFC events be off limits? Really?

yep that's a good one... the other solid option is bringing a thermos with actual coffee, but topped up with spiced rum

at coopers stadium for the soccer Coopers session ale and Cooper dry is $8, coppers light $7.50 that's pretty reasonable

AO it's over $10

Well it is inappropriate. We'd be pissed off if the media hijacked one of our pressers with unrelated questions. How they can possibly blame the Crows for this behaviour is staggering though.

Did any journos ask why Steve Marshall was there?

Or let us say Chapman is conducting an announcement about $165mill Adelaide Airport upgrade, maybe in June 2018 sometime about the 14th
and a few of the reporters send most of the session asking about the Crows Camp

Completely disagree. It's completely appropriate. You're a public figure, attending something aimed at giving you good will, legitimate questions surrounding why you don't necessarily deserve good will are completely legitimate.

"Journalism" (such that it remains a concept) is not a public relations exercise.

They really just need to embrace it and get Mt Bulla on the gurnsey similar to Hawthorn's Tasmania.

Range Rover for the ski field and the Jag for city driving?

I like it. I'd like a member's polo with a Jag logo.

Hmmm, don't they check?

Would much prefer to drink my own better quality reds.

There are some serious margins on all food & drink at Adelaide Oval... & my tickets have been going up by far more than CPI.

Where is all the extra money going?

But that's ok Gil, as tickets & catering is cheaper in Melbourne.

No need, you can just get an Evoque or F-Pace to do both.

I knew a few guys that would sneak in some alcohol, for some quiet drinks during the game at footy park.

I have a plastic flask so it doesn't ping off if you get the metal detector wand on entry.
