Tell us again how rugby league team in Perth will get higher sponsorship than dockers?!
God your stupid, have you seen an afl kit and how many sponsors they have on them?

dockers earn $17.8mill from sponsorship, corporate sales and advertising you moron.

This is what u wrote in February:
"dockers sponsorship ($5.6mill) AND hospitality = $10.7million"

Ur predicting reds will earn as much sponsorship money as dockers.

that was financial year 2021 when we were still dealing with covid Idiot. Sponsorship possibly more, there’s more selling space on anrl kit than an Afl one, rest no.

Corporate sales is more than just sponsorship.

in 2022 dockers had a corporate related revenue of

Sponsorship $8.2mill
corporate game day sales $5.8mill
Signage and advertising $3.7mill

get a clue before spouting off

corporate support in perth won’t be an issue.

U & numbers go together like perth & rugby league. I'll wait till wookie returns before we know what were working with. Either way reds aren't getting anywhere near what dockers are & that's before third afl team in perth enters frame.
It's becoming clear why Perth team never happened after 90's..

Haha just admit you’re stupid and you were wrong. Plenty of corporate support in perth.

Reds won't approach level of dockers but u factoring that number
Don’t need to. some nrl clubs only generate $6-7million in this area. Perth will do more than that no problem. Target should be $10-11mill Corporate sales.
with a 20k membership and 15k crowd avg that will see the club profitable from day one. All very achievable.

ps well done, you’ve literally turned every thread into aPerth thread within a couple of days lol

Obviously a thread to ruffle feathers.

But:

Where are you getting this 20k membership and 15k crowd avg figures from?

The Perth Pelican Bureau of made up Statistics or the GWS playbook?

So you’re advocating for clubs to be unviable? Gold Coast was built with a backer. Fortunately being the richest and one of the biggest cities in australia with govt support and millionaire owners means we won’t have a problem.

Govt is not paying more than a few million if at all. No backer has emerged who will under right club

We’re not a small regional city. Those figures are very achievable based on evidenced nrl fanbase in perth. When we can get 20-30k plus turning up for one off games it’s not unreasonable assumption.

Of course if the club is basket case then it won’t be that but let’s be positive and assume that the club will be well run.
even really poorly run clubs in nrl today are turning a profit due to the massive increase in nrl grant.

Wrong and wrong. They’ve put up $1/2mill just to fund the bid Creation.
cumins is a very wealthy man and he has other consortium members.

U won't do those numbers & it doesn't matter because you'll need more than just that. Last time Newcastle was in trouble they had higher crowds & members than you project

So these figures are dreams only. Thanks for verifying.

Perth is a very good option for expansion but putting up pie in the sky figures doesn't help anyone.

Yeh all those people paying $50-100 to attend nrl games in perth are imaginary.

15k avg and 20k members is conservative imo. And being on the ground here I probably have better idea that someone on the east coast (isnt that how the argument goes?)

And little corporate support, the blight of many regional clubs.
