Lol
I've had a quick look
I can't find any other sport that they've cut sponsorship from due to the excuse they trotted out for dumping fumbles .
They're a big world wide company who sponsor plenty of sport teams & individual athletes .
Can't find any of them that have been dumped ..except fumbles

Oh dear .
Deflecting once again .
Marketing or guru was never mentioned .
It's what you do when you can't answer or are too stupid to understand plain English.

Did they say budget cuts..yes
Cutting back on sport sponsorship ..

Now comes the hard part for you .
Why is the AFL(as far as I can find) the only sport to be cut
They are a big worldwide company who sponsor numerous sports & athletes .
Yet cutback time it's only the Aflol .
Lol sounds like corporate speak for we don't want to associated with a racist sport with a rather large crowd violence issue .

Wouldn't cut backs be across the board or at least a few sports .
Lol

It didn’t really make big news here so maybe it’s not a major news item if they cut elsewhere in the world ... maybe if it was just afl they were looking for a more global product give fiscal pressures. More bang for buck ?

Lol
They're struggling .
I suspect the meeting at Gatorade head office went something like this

Um look there's a problem with aFl in Australia.
Blank looks around the table ..

What's afl .
Lol lol show you a clip one day ..it's Comedy Central
But back to business .
We sponsor them as they're a big sport in the backwater states of Aust.
But they have a constant stream of racism issues
& crowd violence .
The crowd violence extends to punching women .
Or assaulting disabled people .

Wow really ....
That's not a sport we want to be associated with .
So let's cut their sponsorship ...completely .

Ok so how do we do it diplomatically .
Oh you know the usual budget cuts ..drop in sales blah blah .
Ok that's fine sir but how do we explain that no other sports or athletes are having their sponsorship cut .

Well from what I know of the afl & fans they will be too stupid to question that .
Meeting closed .

Well that is indeed a fair point - does make you wonder then. Maybe the AFL charge a lot more - not sure - and that is the cost benefit thing - but yes - good point.

Yes corporate finance manager of gator aid!
It was cut back decisions from hq in America! And who knows the full extent across the board!

It’s not like they are having sponsors ripping up contracts like leave or struggling for sponsorship! As the afl dwarfs the nrlol in this area!
Ffs you have teams struggling to find sponsors

Lol still cant answer .
Stop ranting about me & Gatorade...guru ..marketing ..finance manager .
All I have done is post that the only sport cut is AFL .
A bit strange if they are cutting sport sponsorship & out of many the afl are the only ones .
So why .
Try to answer without deflecting .
Simply put .
Lol
Why only one sport

Nore has it torn up, or threatened to be torn up.
A basic cutback decision from hand America. Especially when you consider Australia would be only a fraction of gator aids sales!

To liken it to the nrlol is just lol
A desperate league fan reeking of desperation!
Just the usual occurrence :-({|= :mrgreen:

Why can't you address the question .
if they are cutting back sport sponsorship why as far as I can find the afl the only sport or athlete .
To be cut .
Stop deflecting onto RL
This is about Gatorade pulling sponsorship 1 year early .
They didn't wait till the end of the deal .

Yet they havnt with any other sport .....
Which to me is laughable to use the excuse they did .
Why only one if sales are down blah blah .

Me thinks there's far more to it than that.
