For a start we don't know to whom they sent that release. Companies know when people read, click, consume content, they would have waited until the time they believed it would deliver the biggest bang for buck. PR teams, marketing teams are all over this kind of stuff... allegedly. Quote

Holden buyers feel very cheated if you read many online comments. They have hardly sold anything in the last year. Ford were smart. The Mustang is a Ford product people already connect with. GM left a hole ? Quote

We still seem to have a revolving door when it comes to sponsors. It would be nice to not have to worry about signing sponsors at the culmination of every year. As for the $1m+ sponsorship, would that not mean that we lost $1m+ due to infiniti no longer sponsoring us? 1 co-principal partner out - iSelect. 1 co-principal partner in - Jaguar. They are the jumper sponsors and the big ones to get signed and hopefully on multi year deals. I think the AFL brand protection rules would only be for that level of sponsor. Toyota can't be cheaply undercut by Mazda buying Gold Coast's jumper sponsorship for $200,000 is surely the idea there. For the lower level of sponsors I doubt the rule would apply. There's almost no way Infiniti would've paid us 1M+ to not even be a jumper sponsor last year. In terms of Major Sponsors - which infinity was last year, they are the ones that get worn on the shorts and club polos and have match day activities. The website currently lists 8. Johnnie Walker, IG, China Southern, Haynes Paint, Chisholm, NT, New Balance, CSG. Plenty of time to add more at that level. We've had multi year deals with those companies. Quote

Adam The God 30,739 Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Does anyone know the commercial terms? Great news to have the BOJ sponsor secured prior to Round 1. It shouldn't be difficult, but it has been. Quote
