Mark123, 1st year commerce classes are fun arent they, i guess regurgitating theoretical crap you learned at uni is what you think is gonna earn you 7 figure salaries (LOL idiot).
Games are already played at ANZ stadium and the SFS, and dont sell out, even though they offer the best seating. Games at ANZ sell less than their suburban counterparts, which has been documented. So your argument is flawed.
If you want people to attend, transport needs to be fixed, viewing on TV needs to be made crappier, it needs to be cheaper to attend along with all of the other costs associated with attending, and games need to be played at times where people are able to attend.
In the real world, you will see that there are very few 9-5 jobs/days anymore, and there is alot more traffic on the roads and people living in the city than there used to be. On average, people are working longer hours than ever before, have larger mortgages than ever before, and as a result, are stressed more than ever before. Having to work longer hours means you have less free time. Having a larger mortgage means you have less disposable income. Put 2 and 2 together, and you have the answer.
The mexicans have a tram system that gets you to the games, and play alot more games during the day. The trams may not be the quickest things, but hey, its better than what we have. Take a look at this weeks round, we have 6 night games (2 on fri, 3 on sat and 1 on monday) the afl have 3, and none on a monday night.
See, you wonder why I dont write page after page:;:: I ALREADY KNOW ALL THAT AND HAVE GOOOOONEEE OVEER IT SOOOO MUCH.
And yet, it seems to this person, I must type it all out again....ready....
anyway....even i am yawning.....yes, my measures get over all of your problems, and an intergral part of meeting all those needs is with less sydney teams, sorry, its the way of the world....look at the guys post....and transport is key, free transport, and I have a range of family packages
: AND THE IMPORTANT thing is that the nrl must position itself competitively or be market leaders in as many of the key areas as possible. AND at the moment, it definately isnt on the top list of entertainment priorities to goto games for many many people....these are the people to nrl must get, and it must change what it is doing to get them.
AND YES, adverts are more complex than i describe, but see below
dont call me stupid, if you want to explain something, start basic....i dont know what knowledge people come here with!!
call the clubs stupid...THEY SHOULD ALREADY BE DOING THIS STUFF!
except less sydney teams, that will take some time, and I dont expect the people who run the clubs to get up and say "we will take one for the team here" and kill themselves, relocate, merge....
stadiums, people need to get into habits....homebush is not great people say, maybe they will get used to it, or maybe clubs will abandon it. i think parra needs to be 40k, or a new stadium. sfs doesnt have great transport....like i say, not one stadium in sydney has
all the key ingredients for a great stadium...at best they miss one.
anyway, use your imagination, there are plenty of ways around it.
thanks for your post anyway
