Well I went onto the Forbes website and listed below the top 32 companies in the world. All of these are MASSIVE!

I also pulled off the top 28 Australian companies. Some of them make some interesting reading....especially the company ranked 745 in the world. Would be rather ironic if it happened!

Take a look, make some comments. Perhaps Synbad could tease us all by saying the new sponsor is (or isn't) on the list.

Over to you all!

If we're talking 5 mil a year we could rule out any Australian company.

I'm still leaning towards a global mass consumer market product/service provider who hasn't achieved much penetration here (yet).

GE Capital is my guess. No back-up evidence, just a complete guess at 3am in the old dart!!

Will the announcement tomorrow morning (Monday) by Swannie, Ratts and Juddy be a major Sponsor or the MASSIVE Sponsor?

Either way the knockers will have lots of googie on their dials.

It might be handy to sharpen up on our Arabie for tomorrow.

Abu Dhabi's weather is lovely at this time of year, but having lived there for a few years, the rest is not much chop.

The sponsorship will be MASSIVE somewhere in the prder of 5 mill.

Vodafone didnt come to us.. because they would have to multply their $$$$ a couple of tmes at least.
Optus will remain a sponsor
I heard Hyundai are back in some sponsorship capacity also.

There all staying coming back or introducing themselves to us instead of running away....

So there is another "massive" besides Hyundai? :-D

if that's true, then MASSIVE is more massive then what i ever imagined it would be. isn't 5 mil over 2 years what most clubs would have as a major sponsor?
