You know your club is in trouble when supporters start comparing you to StKilda, Gold Coast and Brisbane.
All good

2011 balance in equity $13.4m
2015 balance in equity $ 8.9m

Value of the club has eroded by $4.5 in 4 years with approx 60% of that erosion ($2.7m) occuring in the 2015 year.

We better not have too many more of those years.

Missed this in the report:


What sponsor and sponsorship was this?

Visy?

That's $1.5m minimum, with a minimum of $1.2m to come off our expenses. The increased AFL income alone will see us break even in 2016.

The momentum needs to be built for 2017, as well the continued exploration and fostering of additional revenue streams.

They're still a lower-tier sponsor as before, and Ikon took over the ground sponsorship (which they seemed to have at least matched).

Ok so we had one less platinum sponsor in 2015, we're back to 5 in 2016.

Basically from 2014 to 2015:

- Ikon and Visy swapped sponsorship packages
- MC Labour dropped out
- SportingBet was replaced by William Hill
- Picked up another gold sponsor (ZTE, now a platinum sponsor)

Looks like our sponsorship numbers should go up compared to 2015.

Board needs to go. Can type it a lot on a keyboard. Doesn't do anything.

dane's trolling again

2014 membership, merchandise and sponsorship numbers would've covered the net loss, well pretty close to it from memory. It's in the report, have a look.

The problem is still how to prevent those figures repeating though. Membership looks better already, new sponsors may increase that shortfall, merchandise should be covered by #2 sales alone (Obviously lots of new future potential champs for kids to jump onboard with).

Well today I got a call from a client. Saints supporter telling me were as bad as they are. He's a minor saints supporter.
I just say I don't barrack for Carlton no. People don't know how to reply to that.
I say I barrack for the hawkers!
Love saying that...!
Go hawks!

Good News, Bye Bye!!

Good choice!
Hawthorn are going to win a lot more flags in the next 10-15 years. I wish I could bring myself to supporting that team.
I won't say the Tasmanian gift from the AFL/loophole helps in their success as apparently I am like a broken record on that.
And what makes it even funnier is that Carlton is now Hawthorn's lackey in Tasy, playing one of their exhibition matches down there next year whilst Hawthorn reaps the rewards.

Hawthorn took our spot in the Big 4 Victorian clubs.

And we will be taking up residence in a Big 4 caravan park.

No I'll remain here to analyze the club but if anybody should laugh at me or ask me whom I barrack for I'll say hawks!
Go hawkers! No 1 ! Yay
