The Club on game day

[Jimbo]

Bureau of Meteorology couldn't pick pussy to win at the cat show.

That's true

Anyone would think they had Tim Flannery on the books

You guys can argue with the staff at the front if you want. My mail is that once the place starts filling up it is very likely they will limit entry to Leagues club members only.

Not arguing here Frank, just exchanging information, and I accept that the club has safety and licencing regulations to adhere to and limiting admission to members only seems like an obvious tool to use to reign in the numbers to comply with regulations. But what a problem to have, nonetheless.

Argh! who could forget Tim Flannery,NSW was going to be the next Gobi Desert,Sydney the next Timbuktu.
So we spend $500m on a desal plant which we are paying for unused , and a cyclone(with half a brain) decides it's a waste of space and sends the desal roof to Timbuktu.

If we win, they'll have to open the ground. The club is no chance of handling the crowd. Bung up a temporary stand, let people onto the grass. Would make the perfect place for the players to come and hold the shield.

Will need a fair security presence though...

 

[Eion]

And if they manage to fire up the kegs at the ground no one will care about getting into the club

 

[Frank Discussion]

I understand which sounds a little crazy to me,only club members will be allowed in the club,due to demand if they win.Would someone clarify that? Else if you are a member and want to take your missus ,girlfriend,mistress ,boyfriend/girlfriend( if you are hey hey),who are not,they are unable to get in.Can't be right surely?

Are you saying non members should take precedence over members?

It is a CLUB after all. Members trump everyone.

 

[shark dressed man]

Simple solution, I'd have thought. Sign everyone up for membership if you want to party there post-match.

No way as a member for bloody ages ,first comes first.It doesn't affect me,just thinking of non member partners nothing more.I'm probably too soft a type.
Agree if you want to enjoy the benefits, you should be a club member.That's why I believe the football grounds should provide for those types(partners etc).

Exactly spot on.Show the club not only support now but for the future,if you value the club and it's community involvement.

" Fire up" .You there Gaz?

Yeah but if they spend the money to do that and then don't win.....................it's a lemon

 

[Eion]

Well yeah, but can't be too much coin and they've made plenty the last few weeks.

I've got interstate mates coming and worried they won't be able to get in if we all end up there.

 

[Card Shark]

Win or lose, they need to be able to handle a big crowd.

 

[Craigshark]

If they win. Surely they open the ground?

 

[U.K SHARK]

They have to open the ground and have the presentation there.

Why should those who didn't bother attending the game (and therefore go to the club) get preference to those of us who made the journey to support them in person?

 

[spirit of league]

Possibly incorrect, but from memory I think other GF winners have arranged post-victory large outdoor community celebration events the day after or similar

Yep
It would be the same for us you'd think
I'd probably go to that over going back to the club game day.
I'll have kids with me too.

 

[Arnold]

If we win I will be happy to stand in the car park all night.

 

[taipan]

If we win I will be happy to stand in the car park all night.

If we win,by the end of the night,don't think I'll be standing .

 

[shaggs]

Fair queue at the club for tickets this morning.
Also the game day luncheon is sold out.
The girls on the phones were getting hammered.
Steady stream of people coming and going from the merch shop.
