Brisbane was 375K.

Yeah, I agree, membership figures are a much better yardstick than finances, crowds or television ratings.

Whatever it takes...

No they don't. Get your facts right.

Absolute dribble. Imbecilic is not a strong enough descriptive for this rubbish.

It's interesting to note that there were some Kangaroo supporters who, at the early stages of the Kangaroos Gold Coast sojourn, gleefully boasted about the national 'pull' or popularity of the Kangaroos brand. The backflip (from some) has been one of Olympic-esque quality..... The...

umm....notwithstanding the rest of your quality retort - could you inform me as to who owns the Sydney Swans? Thanks in advance.

Thread got what it deserved...

No...

Re: Brisbane crowds are falling In regards to the OP - I can assume that since this Lions match was classified as a Melbourne 'home' fixture, the Lions won't be counting that crowd figure towards their 'official' crowd average for the year? And some people have the nerve to try and claim other...

Re: Brisbane crowds are falling *ZING* no. BTW BrownDog - How are those $8 tickets going?

Re: Brisbane crowds are falling How pathetic, describing 'derby' matches as 'artificial' - heaven forbid a club having a couple of geographically based rivalries. One of the more desperate acts of code-salvation I've seen on these boards.

The most troubling aspect of this issue is that the club's recent public musings are clearly a reactive maneuver against the recent drop in Brisbane-based memberships/crowds. The motives behind this proposal are so transparent it borders on an insult. Mere weeks after the club was attempting...

Oh dear.

http://news.realfooty.com.au/fitzroy-jumper-to-make-melbourne-revival/20072413-nk6.html Michael Bowers: Now, excuse my ignorance on this issue - but I was under the impression that Fitzroy's contribution to the Brisbane Lions was deemed 'heritage', not history.

Evidently in your haste to rebuke me you failed to read the 'full promotion', because the family ticket packages I speak of have absolutely nothing to do with your dribble regarding family memberships being 'averaged out' per person over the entire season. I do dispute possum's ticket price...

Whilst enjoying the local 'Quest Community Newspaper' recently, the KooK's eye's were diverted to a Brisbane Lions promotion - in which 'family' ticket packages were being marketed at $8 per head.

Re: Voss' Coaching Stocks - Intact What description? You are paranoid. By contrast, I assume you are claiming yourself as an unbiased observer of this incident? 'Defending your mate' would usually involve acting to protect the welfare of the 'mate' in the moments directly after the incident...

Re: Voss' Coaching Stocks - Intact On Channel Nine News Brisbane, at 6:00PM this evening. Where, pray tell, would you have expected me to see the footage?

Re: Voss' Coaching Stocks - Intact Based on tonight's footage I am inclined to agree.

The obsession continues...

And the rest... Good work Columbo. "Just one more thing...." *Yawn*

Evidently your concept of 'world' does not extend beyond the shorelines of Australia.

Really? Thanks, I'm nervous already. Poorly constructed AFL-themed 'projection' I see... Don't tar Rugby League with that 'insular' AFL brush please.

What supporters? The NRL is not 'targeting' Perth and WA and flooding the market with promotion and advertising. If the NRL were to act in such a manner, and the ratings tanked - you would be more than welcome to 'stick the boot in'. The NRL is (unfortunately) oblivious to the region, and in...

You caught me - I pulled those names out of a hat. :eek: Seriously, my always incisive observations concerning this issue will no doubt come to fruition at season's end, whereby you will publicly acknowledge my superior 'hack' identification abilities. Until then...

*NRL management in maladroitness shock*

Yes.

I don't have to watch the footy every week to give you an opinion of the Lions that is usually close to the mark. Regardless, I'll you the 'heads-up' as to the three consistently worst Lions players: Tim Notting: Guaranteed to turnover possession as least umpteen times per match. Can't trust...

You speak as though a result of 9K was not anticipated... NRL matches have rated as 'good' as 20K in Perth this year (which of course is poor), but considering that a Perth-based team will not be seen in the NRL competition until at least 2012, coupled with the fact that advertising and...
