Four home games at Docklands.
Four home games at the MCG.
Sometime the solution is so easy that no one can see it. Kind of like the fact that you can't see the trees due to the forrest.

Membership 27000. We lose 1 million in membership revenue.
good question....and he has the hide to call others thread jackers....citywest wrote:Joffaboy again. What is wrong with you man? Why do you have to sabotage everyone of my posts (which hasn't been many lately). All I'm doing is trying to start intelligent debate about the club we love.
Thank you Stinger. Now, Joffa aside, what do people think about my suggestion? Would you be in favour of this?stinger wrote:good question....and he has the hide to call others thread jackers....citywest wrote:Joffaboy again. What is wrong with you man?

Please discuss...
citywest wrote:Are you seriuos Plugger? What is wrong with my suggestion? We play 3 games in NZ against the non-Melbourne clubs, excluding Sydney (South Melbourne) and Brisbane (Fitzroy). We play 4 at the MCG against 4 of the following teams....Collingwood, Essendon, Carlton, Hawthorn, Geelong, Richmond. We then play 4 games at Docklands against 4 of the following....Sydney, Brisbane, Footscray, North Melbourne, Melbourne etc.
In my opinion, if we did this we would become one of the most profitable clubs in the AFL.

If we do slide down the ladder we will be in big trouble financially. We need to embrace NZ and make it work. We also need to show the Docklands that if they want to keep us the need to look after us or else we will look else where. Win win for the Saints.
Don't worry too much 'citywest'................ anyone who attempts to think outside the square here, get's shot down in flames and has personal insults hurled at them by some posters.citywest wrote:I disagree stronly.

Why don't you give up the drugs P66, then maybe you would get along with Stinger and Big W....plugger66 wrote:citywest wrote:I disagree stronly.

Aparently Tassie is a footy state and apperently we also have contracts. I also must have missed the part about the Saints doing there own draw. And then there are the drugs.
Tassie is a one hour $40 flight so alot of members would do it once or twice in a season , plus the money they get from their tassie members.citywest wrote:I disagree stronly.

I far prefer Docklands, the MCG is annoying to get to and there are a lot more poor seats.loris wrote:Though I do tend to agree with P66, many Saints supporters wont go to see the Saints play in any other venue than a covered in dome in Vic, let alone travel O/S. IMHO the 'G' is the best place to watch footy, not that other plastic venue indoors.
I just thought that I would bump this post for discussion. I think we have all realized that our window of opportunity is over. This means that over the next 3 years our membership total will be down to 30,000 and the losses ($$$) will follow. NZ in my opinion could be our only chance to ride out the next few years $$$ wise.citywest wrote:Three home games per year in New Zealnd, but not against Sydney or Brisbane.

I highly doubt NZ will be a saviour> lets at least play one game there first.citywest wrote:Three home games per year in New Zealnd, but not against Sydney or Brisbane. Either GCS, GWS, FREO, WC, ADL, PA.
