What difference does it make where North play, you don't watch it anyway


Where did I say anything about North Adelaide?

Maybe read the previous few posts and get up to speed.


No time for that, my trolling is for the now, not the past ;)

Excellent move.


$2m for 4 games, what an outstanding deal to play the interstate teams.

And alienate your loyal Melbourne members.


Totally incorrect.
The members were aware the club was looking into this and most were supportive.
Home match members still get admission to 11 games in Melbourne plus any or all of the Hobart games are added too this if they choose to go to Tassie.
We’ve won 78% of games in Hobart, anyone who doesn’t get this...
They’re fully committed to Arden St as their home & have constantly been transparent & in touch with members.

It’s nothing like the same. You and Hawthorn get given “replacement” games in Melbourne against Melbourne based opposition at away games to make up your quota. These seats are not your seats you would have for home games and are often in crappy areas of the ground. I know Hawks members are filthy about it but if you guys are happy with it that’s fine

They don’t have a stack of supporters but every club has their rusted on supporters who like to go every week in Melbourne home or away and they have 4 less games a year now

Yep, Adelaide fans can't understand a club being open and transparent with their members/supporters.

Incorrect again.
North are addressing this problem and have acknowledged the replacement home game situation could be better.
Thus they are in advanced discussions with Marvel Stadium & the tenant clubs about improving the circumstances for reserved seat members at away games & replacement games - namely exclusive bays on levels 1 & 2 to ensure better seating amongst fellow North supporters.
It’s not an issue for general admission members as they get the same access as they would for a home match.

Lol - if I went on the Port thread & had a crack about something, you wouldn’t bring North into it in some way?
Turn it up :lol:

So with 5 interstate games plus 4 Tasmania games that means the absolute most games a North member can see in Melbourne is 13 and that’s without a trip to Geelong.
Compare that to most other Melbourne based team members who get 16 or 17 in their home town.

With our premium membership being at peak capacity at Marvel I’d very much doubt you will be getting Level 1 and 2 seating of us if we are the home team

I don't watch games. Doesn't mean I don't keep up with the sport.

How many White Sox games do you watch a season?

It's been enjoyable watching the collapse of the Power over the last week or so.

Prediction - Port for bottom 4.
