Gold Coast Suns growth

[Fred]

Aussie rules in and of itself does very well in SEQ.

Freddy if Melbourne Suburbs were flooded with Sydney Folk, rugby league would go even better too

I give the example of my Cricket Club, its probally a 80% to 20% split NRL to AFL
and all the blokes who love AFL have moved up to GOLD COAST in past 3 to 7 years.

True - but it’s not. The fact that there is a large population of expats - and thus has been a thing for many decades - means there is a large population that follows Aussie rules - there are several generations of people from AFL states - this doesn’t deminish that there is support. And then you have a large base and other people also take an interest. Just because they, their parents, their grandparents, or their great grandparents came from somewhere else doesn’t mean they don’t count - unless someone has an agenda to not do t them ??

[Fred]

so the forum comedian , you... are a comedian aren't you ? .... hasn't heard of fumbling clubs offering one game memberships when they most certainly do
well how surprising

I mean the GWS grants offer 12 game free memberships


they kidnap disabled children on buses & force them to go to games in Western Sydney FFS

poor little buggers
having to endure that horrid excuse for a sport

Leroy asked about the Suns offering 1 game memberships - I didn’t think they did -

ofc they do
the fumbling mess from vicdopia are the masters of inflating its support , misrepresenting its progress etc

Listen - if you can show me where the suns provide 1 game membership packages that’s fine - I’ve just never eeem it, but happy to be shown where they have.

our point fwed is ...
they're pretty much the only people who have any interest in this bumbling shit show where ever its played ...their claim they're doing well in NSW & QLD is smoke & mirrors .... its doing well with their expats & their offspring &... no one else

[Fred]

Well I know personally thats just not true -

1 game memberships at SUNS

well surprise surprise

the fumblers were wrong ..... again
but tbf

how is that a surprise to anyone

First of all - I simply said I has never seen a 1 game membership. And I do believe, may be wrong, that this is the first year this Casually Committed membership has been offered - as haven't seen this before, and also the other memberships have a 2025 to 2024 comparison. So possibly a new thing. Who would pay 70 plus dollars for a 1 game membership???

Finally - another reason memberships stats are dodgy (as I have always said).

so you doubted they existed ......... because you hadn't ever seen any 1 game memberships ever for the thuns
& it took 5 minutes to prove you wrong

now its a new thing because you've never seen them before ??

[Fred]

No - I said I've never seen one - and naturally I hadn't as appear only new to this season.

[azif]

No - I said I've never seen one - and naturally I hadn't as appear only new to this season.

and where does it say they're new to this season

thats right
it doesn't

Hi Asif -

It seems you may be wanting an argument - which I am really not into - so I will just put that out there. Happy to have a normal chat though as we sometimes can when you are in the mood.

So, as I said in my earlier post - I have not seen these before and given the other memberships offered show a comparison from what you get in 2024 compared to 2025 - that those two things led to my assumption that they appear to be new. Is this definitive - no, it is just my reasoning. I may be wrong in my assumption and happy to be shown this is the case - I have no issue with this whatsoever, and indeed, welcome it.


I'll tell you what I'll do - I have to ring the suns to update my credit card details - so will be speaking to membership (I'm sure they will be calling me anyway) - and I will ask about the 1 game membership this year and whether it was offered previously.

post shit fwed , get called on it ... then cry

you were told the thuns do have one game memberships ... about 3 times ... but because you had never seen them because you never look past the end of your nose ... you required proof

proof provided

oh oh
they must be a new thing

they're not

but but but
they didn't offer them in 2024.....

they've been around since 2011
anyway fwed .... continue making a goose of yourself ... its awesome entertainment

Again, I am not posting shit as you call it. I am writing my experience and stated I was happy to be corrected. This is a the usual discourse of conversation.

Again, was not told three times - I posted that I have never seen them or heard of them. When LeRoy posted the link to this years membership packages I was happy to informed that they now do. To the best of my knowledge, I do not think they have offered one game memberships in the past - based on my experience and that the site does not compare the offer to 2024 just like other years - but again , happy to be corrected if I am wrong. I did a search for previous years memberships and could only find 2023 mentioned where they did not offer the 1 game membership. Again, i will ask when I call the Suns about this and if wrong, that is fine. I don't need to be "called" out" for being incorrect if I am - it;s not a bad thing in my eyes.

Listen, I do try and be nice to you Asif - I really do, and do try to avoid the whole insult stuff - I have been there in the past and realised I was just making a dick of myself. But I get that not everyone subscribes to this line of thought, and for you, the forum and fight club stuff fills some need. I am trying to trwat the forum as I would if down the pub or having a drink with mates - or with people in general - I have no need to put them down or jump around pointing out they may have said something wrong - sometimes I even let things go knowing they are wrong - cause otherwise i'd lose friends quickly. Anyway - I have no agenda, nothing to gain whatsoever, in stating that I did not believe the suns had a 1 game membership - I am happy to be corrected by LeRoy that they now do. I still stand by my belief that I do not believe they had them previously - but if someone can show me they did, then that is fine too. It's no big deal - like who cares. For you it seems some sort of victory if someone is proven wrong - which I get is somehow important for you - fills a need in this whole NRL v AFL thing you have going on - which is fine - we are all different. But it does become tiresome, and I don't wont to put you on ignore, as I really do try and give you the benefit of the doubt, for various reasons. I'm not the enemy nor do i want to be - I suspect many others feel the same.

Anyway - so the Suns do provide 1 game memberships in 2025. Lets see if this was a thing l;ast year and year before etc etc. Happy to stand corrected.

Based on you being a bubble dwelling fumbler fwed is all you needed to say , or ever need to say

& we will all know it will be incorrect

[leeroy*NRL*]

AFL clubs have been doing 1 game memberships for years as well as 3 game memberships etc
