Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 1

The best piece of merch the club has put out I reckon is the new rugby tops. Hell I even bought one and I haven't bought any merch from the club in about 10 years.

 

[PortBrillance]

Just on them PAFC black hoodies, are the club going to make anymore of them? The grey ones are shit (don't care what essee says) They could be making so much more money right now, I've already said that whoever runs the entire merchandise are complete ****heads.

 

[YoungsterPA]

Haha sunrise gave money away to someone and kochie said you have to spend some money on becoming a port Adelaide member!

 

[Jonts]

I'd want to play that... do it!!

Its going to be hard, they're so many things to cover, to be honest its still in ites very early stages

Also I think a very important element to branching out as a club is making the merchandise and everything associated with the club attractive. The pafc hoody jumpers from 2011 were fantastic, but they need to provide something to
Members that can be worn to show off their membership Status.

They should really invest strongly into providing in style merchandise. Also I think it's time To look at changing the logo. While I have nothing against the current one, It really doesn't represent a strong image of the club. Even something simple like the Carlton logo would Be far more attractive.

I think we should also look at what freo have done. I think they have done extremely well to create some passion and pride within a club (even without success) I wonder if this has come about through more attractive marketing??

And we should also look internationally at teams such as the clippers mentioned previously and sides like Manchester city. We need to be far
More pro active. This club deserves
To have passionate supporters filling Adelaide oval. I would love to be known as a club that has a supporter base of passion and pride.

They didn't think the logo/merch ratio through.

The amount of shit with just the 'fist device' on it - the poxiest looking thing ever - that went unsold for obvious reasons could be stacked 10 foot high at the Wingfield tip.

I like the grey PAFC hoodie more than the black one.

It's still available on the megastore if anybody is interested.

Can I have your black one then?

 

[finbarr]

I might go to a Sixers game or two this summer. Would be the first time in about 3 or 4 years I reckon. I used to go regularly, until the NBL became an an embarrassing piece of shit. Its slogan should have been "NBL, where not so amazing happens".

They seemed to have turned it around now, some good players are playing. Adam Gibson is a good get for the Sixers.

I can't support the 36ers for the following reasons -

*To me they're basically the Crows on a basketball court.
*To me the majority of their fans are Crows fans in a basketball arena.
*They make me think of Ken Cole and Phil Smythe.
*I'm not a particular fan of basketball.

 

[manureid]

Basketball is just a shite sport... sorry to any basketball fans on this board.

 

[Jonts]

I agree with your first 3 points, however, I love basketball. The Sixers are all we've got. ****ing Adelaide.

Basketball is equal with Aussie Rules as the greatest sport in the world. Don't really give a **** if anyone disagrees with me.

 

[DonDraper]

I'm going to assume finn that you're not an Adelaide Utd fan then

You assume correctly Mr Draper. Was a regular at Adelaide City games though.

I'd never say any sport is a shit sport. I'm sure I like sports that other people think are rubbish. Just saying that I personally don't like basketball.

 

[Ebert80]

Basketball was great in the mid/late 80's when the 6'ers had Davis, Green etc. Cole was a strange one but he got success, and since those days there's been a lot of rubbish coaches come in and so many dud imports as well.

I like Basketball but rarely watch it. Hate the NBL.
I love soccer and always watch it, but I hate the A-League.

No joke, the best game I ever watched live was the Cup Final several years ago between two Sunday amateur league teams, Elizabeth Downs and Elizabeth Vale. High quality and as fierce as you'd hope to see.

Adelaide City > Adelaide Utd.

 

[finbarr]

Adelaide City - "The aristocrats of Australian soccer".

 

[Trewth]

Dean Brogan won a premiership/championship with both the Sixers and Port Adelaide. Brule story co.

The Sturt memberships are in the mail.

 

[Hooligan87]

Is it wrong that i actually really enjoy watching the ANL? Professional Netball is actually really exciting.
