Nrl plans for a 20 team comp

[Canard]

Are the GWS Giants worth $28.5 million over 10 years? | Region Canberra

It has to be said, the AFL is in a class of its own when it comes to negotiating deals…

region.com.au

Looks like it’s 2.85 million a year from the act govt

This is on top of the 7 million in govt grants they got to upgrade down property they own

Can you let me know at what accounting system wouldn't count this?

And how would you rate PNG solely relying on Govt money to exist? Good, bad or otherwise?

 

[Canard]

Listen boys where about to have a team in the comp (the only expansion team in almost twenty years) that would not exist without your tax dollars.

So not sure we can get to high and mighty about govt handouts.

Glass houses and all that

In sponsorship yes they do, in fact they better a number. Any other metric not close. But Im arguing the toss with Wb on sponsorship not on other metrics.

That's what I'm saying. The sponsorship doesn't necessarily come from the Sydney market. It's an AFL club, owned by the AFL and plays some games in Canberra. You don't think their owners have sway in fumbleball states to get them a good sponsorship portfolio? Has nothing to do with their standing in Sydney because you can't with a straight face say they aren't the least appealing NRL or AFL club in that city.

The only one worse was the Sharks who handicap themselves with a shit ground. Pre capacity reduction the sharks would average more than 11k

Eels deal. $1mill ten years ago, could wellbe worth more by now

Northern Territory government considers ripping up Parramatta Eels deal

The Northern Territory Government is considering ripping up its $4 million sponsorship with Parramatta after Chief Minister Adam Giles conceded questions needed to be asked whether it's good sense to continue ploughing taxpayer money into a club whose constant infighting could reflect badly on...

There is no evidence of waht Souths or Pantehrs currently get in their deals. I know WA govt was paying $500k a game for NRL club to bring games here. No evidence of what Gosford is paying Souths.

Panthers Bathurst deal $300k figure was from 2017. Not been any updated figure put out but I doubt its remained static for 7 years. Council hides the figure as sites 'commercial confidentiality' to keep its rate payers in the dark.

Again why do you not consider this sponsorship revenue? If a city or stadium wants to sponsor a club to take a game or three there then its a legit source of sponsorship revenue is it not?

So you can’t provide the figures but just want to make up random figures

Nah the figures I’ve seen for Bathurst are 500k or so

GWS got a sweet deal from the act govt to. Be sure but only an idiot would use it as proof they generate more sponsorship than Sydney nrl clubs

Hey mate can you point out all the errors and inconsistencies that you identified KPMG made in the AFL FY reports?

 

[Steel Saints]

Giants $13.5mill in sponsorship in 2024
Cronulla sharks $7.1mill
Panthers $12mill
Souths $11.8mill
Tigers $6.5mill
Eels $12.3mill (inc corporate game day sales)

Maybe put an asterisk next to GWS because they are owned by the AFL.

lol just admit you’re wrong, gws are doing very well for sponsorship revenue despite your assertions.

50 million from the act govt
Yep killing it with Sydney sponsors

Since when has sponsorship been restricted to one city? Who cares where the money comes from? All your claiming here is that gws is a more attractive brand nationally than Sydney nrl clubs lol
Is that the sound of you moving the goalposts again?

It’s not even sponsorship to begin with lol

GWS can’t even get people they give freebies tickets to show up too

The club is a disaster especially financially

 

[Perth Red]

More sponsorship than pretty much any nrl club in sydney. Those be the facts and your demise in this argument lol

Canberra spent more money on a Sydney afl team than Perth is spending on their nrl side

Canberra spent more money on a Sydney afl team than Perth is spending on their nrl side

Although around Homebush retailers of dogs' collars are doing a roaring trade . Catering for a decent part of their attendance base .

I can see as a afl fan why you’d be celebrating that! Would you have been a gws fan or stuck with your swans?

I told you my mate had free swans tickets last week and was begging me to go

And loads of times corporate seats for the giants never went then either

Getting free tickets for afl is easy

If you asked people from Sydney to name a single afl player they probably couldn’t

So much for that national competition you want rugby league to copy
