I read it was all about getting Chinese people who holiday here, which is substantial, to take in a game. I also read it was about getting exposure of the game as a vehicle for companies in China to use to promote their product, which I believe has been successful for port thus far? Remember, this was a club initiative not the afls. And there has been some ratings in China I believe ... hey wookie can we add these into the total

No point trying to sugar coat an embarrassment for AFL. How many Chinese companies would seriously want to sponsor a game which has such low interest and is relatively unknown in China.

Oh my. It's about show casing a product they can use to grow their name in Australia.

Yeah showcasing a product that nobody could care less about in Chinese culture or it's nation.

No. No. No. lol

It is the Chinese company to would advertise/sponsor an AFL club so they could promote their product in Australia. Does that make sense?

Hold on Fred
Your mentally challenged fumble friend on here says the game was to get Chinese living in Aust interested .
The stupidity of that statement will take a lot of beating .
For example
If I went & lived in the USA & had no interest in Gridiron would I suddenly have an interest if a game was played in Aust.
Even when if I had the slightest interest I could see a game in the US where I am living .

& you fumblers wonder why you get laughed at .

My understanding was that it was also to get visiting Chinese to place going to a game of Australian football on their intimate.

Not sure about Chinese here getting interested as haven't heard that. But if I am a person from China living in Australia and never really took an interest in the local game but saw it played in my home country it may get me interested .

i live in qld but from say south Australia where rl is virtually non existent. If having moved to qld I hear a lot about rl but it doesn't take my interest. However, if I see a game promoted in my home town in Adelaide I would take more of an interest as I have some link to this ... "buy in" if you like.

Lol
You fumblers really live in a different reality .

How the fuck would it interest you if a sport was played in your old country or city .
It's mind boggling the stupidity of that thinking ..

honestly, why do you even care?

So if you moved to the other side of the world and they played a sport called farnarkling and you'd seen it on the news but never took the time to give it nothing more than a cursory interest but then you see that they are playing a game on say Brisbane or Toowoomba or Warwick or Gold Coast etc... wouldn't that spark you interest just a little?

This is what respected FB journalist Patrick Smith said about modern day fumbling.

A couple of the best comments:

" so deficient were the skills the game looked like a rejected script from a Charlie Chaplin film. "

"Adelaide are on top of the ladder. Of 12 games played they have lost three. That should not be seen as a badge of brilliance but only that it is recognition of the Crows being the best of a collection of incompetence."

Sounds about right to me. A fumbling mess indeed.
