    Lions \"arrogant\"

    It's OK being arrogant if you can back it up . Capper was a big attraction being a big mouth but then he'd go out and take those marks .the game has lost a lot of colur with everybody being so polite . Just once i'd like a coach to say "we hate em and we're going to rub their noses in it ."...

    channel 9

    "I'm tipping they could get 350,000 viewers in W.A. for the GF " Seroiusly ? at 10.30 pm ? when that's the earliest we've seen any RL on TV for at least 2 years . I'm tipping SFA

    Good idea

    Even less likely now ,with a NRU competition being constructed for the 2005 season .No room for the Reds and the Gold .

    Adelaide & Perth: Part 2

    Most of what you talk about comes under the baner "gunna" gunna do this ,gunna do that .IMO it's not the percentage play given the resources and current sporting evironment and future politcal moves . Remember there are no pokies in WA or SA to prop up teams . As for the present ,what's...

    Adelaide & Perth: Part 2

    "I'm not a stadium manager in SA or WA. " Then you don't know if it's finacilly viable .It wasn't before. To prop up a team for 15~20 years is a big ask. You know FA about Perth grounds . "It's not that hard to attract sponsors" -Really ? You haven't got airline sponsorship now . You...

    Adelaide & Perth: Part 2

    OK Tamazoid What would the crowd break-even point be ? How long would you be prepared to prop up a new team ? Also a few minor points . Where would they play out of ? What about sponsorship ? What about travel equalisation ? Who would be funding the new team ? Where would the players...

    Saturday's ratings: the WINNER is LEAGUE

    "A lot of people I know went because it was a 'BSE' - big sporting event " Really ? Just how many of the 72k odd people do you know ?You certainly have a lot of AFL friends .I would have pictured you as the type of person who wouldn't be seen dead within distance of AFL being mentioned . Hey...

    Adelaide & Perth: Part 2

    Why start a second thread Tamazoid ? Couldn't handle the truth of the first thread .The first priority should be the Storm not risky ventures . People quote the good crowds for the Reds but they ended with absolutely dismal crowds .This was at a time when RL did have a profile on TV .Good God...

    Saturday's ratings: the WINNER is LEAGUE

    "Average Sydney audience AFL: 174 000 LEAGUE: 502 000 " 174,000+72,000(that actually went and paid $60 each and in so doing paid off the lease on TS for the next 5 years,ensuring even more games of AFL,besides those at the SCG) = 246,000 I tone down the jubilation just a fraction .

    Rams and Reds

    Interesting story about the rise in RL in the West .equal effort might be put in the fall of RL in the West .The situation here is much worse than when the Reds folded and we are supposed to be superior to Vic and SA . Since that time the WCE have recovered to be finals contenders ,the Dockers...
