Foxtel should sponsor St. Kilda

Post: # 1321218Post saintspremiers »

Including NZ (5.50pm AEST) we have 9 Twilight games this season, 10 if round 23 is also twilight.

All exclusive to Foxtel.

They should sponsor us and offer Saints members a rebate worth $10 a month off our packages, exclusive to Saints members.

That would drive up their numbers a bit, and provided the sponsorship dollars more than offsets those that stay at home we will all be on front.

Maybe we need to own twilight footy - ideally Sat twilight and some Sunday.

We need more money. We need more sponsors.

We can't exist as we are in our current form beyond the next decade IMO.

The NBN should sponsor the Saints. Anyone who is a registered Saints member gets priority (before September 14) installation of NBN fibre to the home. That's bound to increase membership by about 1000% if not more.

If you look at all the "Fox Footy" posters in bus stops around the Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne, Fox are in love with Jobe Watson, Essendon; Scott Pendlebury, Collingwood; Lance Franklin, Hawthorn and Jack Riewoldt, Richmond. It appears that there is NO room or NO cash or NO love for St Kilda !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

It appears we are on the way down and our star players are in decline. Who is our star player at those players age?

We don't have one. Hopefully in the next year or 3 we will have a few. Stanley? White? Wright? Steven? McEvoy? !!

Agree and we have to somehow get more popular as we drop down the ladder or we will end up with less members than any Victorian side. We have ony 1000 more members than Melbourne. What and indictment on the supporters.

Only difference is Haleys Comet turns up every 76 years and it's guaranteed. Maybe sportsbet should open a market on which will occur first - a Saints flag or the next appearance of HC (in 2062).


Opinions are like arseholes, everybody's got one.

I reckon I'll be alive when HC next comes. Might be blind and deaf and
Have dementia, but I doubt I'll be around when we next win a flag!

Why so?

Multiple clubs are in a worse position than us in Melbourne. The dogs, kangas and the dees are certainly in a poorer position than us.

Do you expect those clubs to be killed off before us?

Explain

We're failing badly membership wise after such a long period of near dominance that they didn't have.

We've had plenty of stars to get numbers through the gate also.
