Spud vs Chief is VERY dumbed down!
Dumbed down? No, just plain dumb. Watched it a couple of times and couldn't believe they could get something like that on the air.


I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

Ask the people who are actually trying to make money for the club if it makes sense. These games have bugger all exposure as only on foxtel. The club can't organise any corporate functions around them as they're not played after a lunch or a dinner. That may sound petty to the average supporter but if you're trying to attract corporates - no chance.
They don't give most of these games to the traditional low clubs in bulldogs and saints for no reason .
Shift workers can't attend as its played over a day and night shift.
People go out for dinner on weekends.
It doesn't sound like you would very often - unless you actually post from a restaurant which would make you a rude pr#*k.
Plenty of people don't have foxtel which means no saints games on tv for 6 weeks in a row.
Unless you're happy with the club making no money and then begging for handouts every year.

Pig headed AFL arrogance.

Should be 2pm as the feature (only) match of the day.


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

I am NOT a fan of 4.40 games. I would like to see the club make a real push for more Saturday Night games !!


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