That's a given my friend. Can I ask where you got your figure of $4.418M for GWS membership/season ticket/gate/merch from their 2018 annual report? Ta pal!!!!!!!!!!
You seem to be trolling me pal. It's kind of impressive I mean that much to you!!!! I well remember the days when you refused to converse with me after the multiple thrashings I gave you lololololol!!!!!!! After which you retired to the jungle to save further humiliation lololoo!!!!!
Thanks pal. Sorry to worry you. It's just that I can't find any figures that add up to that amount in the AR. No doubt it is my ignorance. I will take another look and let you know what I come up with.
How can a club which only half fills its stadium twice a season, gives countless free tickets away & has so few supporters based on TV audience, generate such income?The_Wookie wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 2:12 pmHead office revenue and membership revenue are reported separately.ParraEelsNRL wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 12:47 pmHead office money is not revenue idiot.
How could they be making anything when all their so called supporters would fit in a phone booth. Thickshit.
And just for comparison
Match Returns (Membership/Season Tickets & Gate)
GWS – $4,418,738 (includes merch)
Swans - Sydney – $16,375,126 (+ $766k in merch)
Parramatta - $2,762,078 (+693k in merch)
Penrith - $2,250,000 (+1.398m in merch)
Roosters - $1,798,624 (+518k in merch/royalties) + possible 1.7m in members subs.
Bulldogs - $2,273,274 (+$995k in merch)
Sharks -$973,042 + possible $2,092,248 in members subs. (+1.6m in merch)
Thanks pal. That's the figure I came up with. Having perused AR's from different sports its seems it is rather hard to have direct comparisons due to the differing methods of reporting. It does however seem rather strange GWS add match receipts with AFL distribution. No other AFL club reports it that way that I have perused.The_Wookie wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2020 1:21 pmOk my first figure is wrong, because i didnt caculuate in 1.984m in other AFL distributions.Terry wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2020 12:49 pmThanks pal.

you can ask. But i really dont feel like helping you out today, Pal.
Cheers pal!!!!!!
Its because the match receipts and the AFL distribution are combined in the GWS report, To get the match reciepts you need to subtract the AFL Distribution which isnt listed in the GWS report, but is listed in the AFL repor.
GWS Report -
AFL Distributions and Match Reciepts - 25,692,602
Membership and Merchandise - 1,870,350
AFL Report
22,876,000 + 1,984,000 = 24,860,000
therefore - Match Receipts = 25,692,602 - 24,860,000 = 832,602
GWS MAtch Receipts/Memberships and Merchandise = 832,602 + 1870350 = $2,702,952
Amended first post.

Update: I've taken a look at the AFL AR 2018. The 'other' distributions Wookie spoke about do not relate to the loans given by the AFL.Terry wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2020 2:22 pmActually my figure was slightly different to Wookies. It was reported that GWS got additional support of $2.5M from the AFL during 2018. Meaning GWS' total would have been $2.2M all up for members/ticketing/merch. However the money was in 2 separate loans so there is a possibility the half mill loan may have fallen into another financial year.
Having said that Wookie says his numbers are from the AFL AR so that is probably correct.

Not bad for a little regional club.

Would you care to give me an AFL comparison for the Eels in regards to support, prestige etc. ? More Pies or North?
