Satan

See my post above , donations and government grants got them the profit but thats non operating profit

Nev sadly played 1 season too long however his benefit was off field helping Kozzie . Weid just didnt take his chances when playing in the team without BBB .With covid just another fringe player unable to play with Casey in the later season to get and maintain form incase needed in September. Hoping 2018 finals was not a flash in the pan.

Until were not the current premiers I say we celebrate . Thats why we bought the clothing hats drink bottles etc to remind others we are the current premiers . We waited 57 years , lets take enjoyment for finally winning particularly as we couldnt celebrate post grand. final .

The first junket overseas 24 players and 27 officials all that was missing was ss minnow , bradys go to hawaii and bookem dano couldnt get away with the sexist commentary now lol

cant explain north being debt free based on membership sales 46k ( save our skins i suspect) however carlton and essendon have 28k more members than us These are established sides with hundreds of thousands of supporters with long time family based fans . We lost fans over last 50 odd years . Go to auskick one sat morning , very few melbourne jumpers . Kids will go to winners , keep winning prime time games and more grand finals and you will get kids asking to go to melbourne games . re carlton just checked their figures 1.2m operating profit Carlton would be stuffed without Pratt and mathison bail outs over the years THE CARLTON Football Club is pleased to today announce a net operating profit of $1,282,346 for 2021, up on the operating break-even result achieved in 2020 of $34,639. This operating result has contributed to the Club declaring a statutory net profit position of $20,257,029 for the year ended 31 October 2021 – inclusive of government grants and philanthropic contributions towards the IKON Park Redevelopment, which has now surpassed 50 per cent completion. Re essendon Essendon Football Club is pleased to have strengthened its financial position in 2021, announcing a statutory profit of $8.2 million. This is made up of an underlying profit from operations of $1.2m, together with $7m of donations and grants directly attributable to the expansion of the NEC Hangar development. The underlying cash profit from operations was $5m. I think The selling of bentleigh club Proceeds will be in statutory profit next Year . from annual financial report The Club entered a contract of sale for the Bentleigh Club land during the year. The sale contract is for $23.7m, $1.2m above the carrying value, and will enable the Club to create a Future Fund with the sale proceeds (after transaction costs) of ~$23.3m upon settlement of the transaction in 2022 my original post was based on original figures quoted on Carlton and Essendon . They were not operating profit . Cant compare apples with oranges . Further digging and quoted from the efc and cfc showed lower operating profit than us .

Not from ricky nixon is it ? :)

1.2 m according to Wikki wonder if thats in this years figures?

The non melb Qb game and non nt game cost us millions
