and beaten by another (and much better) Lloyd Williams horse today. After much thought, I changed my mind and backed the class horse in the field. He won with something in hand. He might be worth something in the big one although there was another v special horse that ran today. Might win a plate and a cup.

Barts horse is a freak

Q. What is the club doing to pay off existing debt?

A. There will be an announcement re: this before the beginning of next season, probably around Feb/March in regards to the theme/naming/thoughts behind it.

It's not Save Our Skins of old or Debt Demoilition from other clubs, it will be something different.

7 years is a hell of a long time in sponsorship terms - to long IMHO. Especially if its a major sponsorship.

My bro-in-laws uncle owns PFD foods (he's worth $748m), the Collingwood coaches box sponsor, he apparently would hand over big cheques to the Pies for sponsorship but they'd reject him because it wasn't enough. No idea how much he's paying for his coaches box sponsorship though.

Is CGU there only major sponsor now? $2m per year doesn't sound as much as I thought they could get for their whole jumper sponsorship given how Eddie bleats about how much the Pies guernsey is worth and the agreement is signed just after they've just won a premiership. How much in total were Dick Smith and Luxbet paying us? I thought it was around $1.8m or something combined.

ps. I see in the link they've listed the Richards/Dyer trophy as one of their trophies won this year. I guess it's good in one way they still see us as well as Carlton and Essendon as their main rivals. It was only 4 years ago we were unbeaten against all three of the other "Big 4" clubs in one season .

No CGU is their joint major sponsrs with Emirates. Emirates is worth another $2 mil to them a year so that's $4mil in total. They have been in negotiations for some time from what I understand. Aussie Home Loans told them back in May/June that they wouldn't be continuing.

I don't think 7 years is too long especially as some clubs can't even crack $2mil for their majors. Remember the Bulldogs deal with Mission Foods is worth $1.5-$1.8mil a year and that's for jumper (back & front) and shorts

As for DS & Luxbet - your number is what I"ve heard too MT.

C'wood get the bigger $$ because they can offer more exposure wise - FTA coverage will do that

I'd be very happy with a 7yr deal for $14mil

Ta for that WP. We've certainly have fallen a long way behind the Pies over the past decade when in 1999 they were losing $1m a year and we had more members than them. Until we become successful onfield it's going to stay that way too  .
