Rumour 3.5 mil down the dunny

[dank420_]

ayy ladies and gents

It's been a while but I've been backin a huge one out. Me guts are stuffed.

Anyway, While I was there I heard about that bloke who got caught with drugs. Bloody druggos.

ANyway, apparently that's cost em a fairly huge sponsorship deal worth about 3.5 mil a year. They were gonna announce it but junkie mcidiot had other plans and so the sponsors jumped ship.

Put that in the 'oops' category ay mates

Personally, If I was head coach or a footy boss or wotev, I'd ban players from even going near Double Bay. What a shithole.

Glad you finally managed to shift that stool.

"well thanks to you, Michael, the whole team's running laps." - me if I was John Longmire

 

[J_Moore]

Deadset though, what sort of cereal-boxed degreed marketing drongo abandons a $3.5mil/year sponsorship because someone with less name recognition than the fullback in the Hockeyroos gets caught with a gram of coke?

Suspect the announcement is likely delayed.

Some organisations take drug use a bit more seriously than the AFL it would seem.

It does sound rather dramatic, but who knows. There could be any number of reasons why- for example if the sponsor is a state-owned corporation and that country has particularly draconian laws around illicit drugs or something.

Pure speculation, though.

Reads as if many drugs were consumed during the creation of the OP.

How many alt accounts do you have?

 

[HBF]

That would be huge if true. Can't see Talia playing for the Swans again if this is legit.

lol

If you're asking whether the OP is me, no it is not.

but what kind of state owned corporation would sponsor a international sport team?

Hi Robbo, hi!

It would explain why he'd experienced trouble making a movement.

I can actually back up the Op's claims here. Sydney were about to sign a huge sponsorship with an international company in the same industry as Qantas (that's about as many hints you'll get from me). Michael Talia means they can kiss that goodbye.

 

[J_Moore]

Wow I can't believe we're missing out on a sponsorship deal with North Korea's Air Koryo.

Still, can't imagine this'll do any harm to the Citibank deal. 'Ey? ... 'EY?!?!*

dank420_ is never wrong.

 

[J_Moore]

Seriously though, I think the Swans media team should do one of those fly-on-the-wall "coach tells a player he's debuting"-type videos for the website, except it's Harley, Longmire & Andrew Ireland calling Talia into the office and telling him he's cost the club an 8-figure sponsorship deal.

Etihad Airlines, as an example.

They take a dim view of drugs in the Middle East.

they take a dim view of most things over ther

 

[DapperDon]

I can't see Talia getting invited to too many past player functions.

Makes Jay Schulz seem like a lightweight
