Yes wyl I remember a certain CEO of the AFL before Vlad gushing about how money could be made at 20 000
And remember the movable seats
wonder where they went.
The AFL was sold a pup from day 1
It will probably need replacing by the time they take ownership
Yes rpfc a plausible theory.
But not one I subscribe to.
I think it was a race between him and little Gil and he lost.
That simple, now the TI might have added a bit but IMO he would have lost anyway.
$400 00 would be about 8 times more than we make on average in Melbourne.
We probably pay the dome of death when we have a home game there.
I would play 4 games in the NT at 400k a game = $2million PA
Bring it on MFC
RR I think you are reading too much into that.
Him leaving was all about him not being the heir apparent.
I believe the Tanking inquisition had very little if anything to do with it.
It is just a handy excuse for us Dees fans.
The only thing it signals to me wyl is that we have done a poor job on the NT trips.
This is one area that IMO the MFC is stuck in the 1980's
It needs a big increase in effort.
By the way "China" must be dead nothing heard in 2 years usually means it is no more.
I have been to Darwin a few times mostly in the June - August period.
weather is similar to Bali most of the year.
But in those winter ( dry ) months it is great.
18-19 min. to 28 - 30 Max. and no humidity just great in my opinion.
Darwin is good for 3 - 4 days as a tourist and further a field to Litchfield and Kakadu are very good National parks.
Easy to spend a week up there.
If you book ahead you can get lower airfares.
The thing that astounds me is that one of our major sponsors is Webjet
Why on earth is there not Charter / special deals organised by the Club to visit.
500 members from Vic up there for the game would surely be a big boost to the team.
So far the MFC have been IMO total failures in this area.
I am happy to keep playing in the NT, $700 000 a game is just what we need.
But come on MFC / Webjet lift your game
There is not much to talk about with DB Monoccular
No Games, No Goals, no kicks , no hand passes, no marks,
pretty much nothing.
I am amazed it lasted as long as it did
Rather talk to you here longsuffering
Tweeting is BS in my view.
Probably too old to get it.
Life has taught me that occasionalyl things don't suit you.
Most of the 21st century suits me fine.
I have already moved on.
Why is it that ever year February is the best time of the year for tragic's
I live in hope that one year September will be the best time of the year.
2014 perhaps
I think I am a couple of generations in front Biff GD minding duties tonight.
She is fast asleep and I hope she stays that way.
Only 2 and is a sweetheart
You know that old joke................
If I had known how good grand children were I would have had them first
boom boom
I think you missed it Biffen
I was suggesting ( joking ) that if the tigers walked away from Punt Road I would gladly take it.
No suggestion we share.
I have only the following from memory Biff but like the MCG I don't think the licensing laws allow a bar to be open past game time at AAMI
Sorry wyl "Demon Park"
Oh wyl that is a bit low.
I would expect that from a few on here but not you.
up your game mate.
Unlike you I don't hate the Tigers.
I have a few mates who support the tigers.
They are not rat bags
All clubs have rat bags even the Dees.
Any time the tigers want to hand over Punt Road to the MFC I will be to accept the keys.
