i ask supporters this.
Why donate money?
The night before B. Gale announces to the masses at Crazyburn the fighting fund.
RFC were fined  for being late on the ground for the  NAB match against Collingwood and also fined for not having submitted team sheets to umpires and opposition clubs before commencement of play.Note usual fine is $10,000 for being late.
Feel sorry for supporters donating money, might as well stand out in the wind and throw it away.
 :banghead

Are you seriously telling people not to donate to the FTF?

Whats the matter? afraid that if the club becomes sucessful you will have nothing to post about?

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

i will enighten you more.
the sirens at the ground go off at intervals.
Collingwood were on the ground long before we were, as were the umpires.
the siren went off twice , meaning 2 minutes the start of play.
it then went off once to signal a minute to go.
No sign of the tigers.
I explained to my 8YO daughter the signfigance of the sirens etc,.

can tell you that my information on the night about the team sheets,was from the opposition team and they were peeed right off as no team sheets were handed in.
AFL steward reported all this to the match supervisor, result RFC were fined.

I think as a reuslt of this we've clearly bought the game into disrepute and the fine was completely warranted

Total care factor about this earth changing event = 0

It was all supposed to be sent out this week Flagman

Maybe Mr RFC_O can shed some light on things

Now jack you and I both know that is a ridiculous statement

Firstly get the numbers right the debt is $4.5 mil not $6.0k

If you think that a multitude of $10k fines are the reason why the clubs carries a $4.5 mil debt to the bank then you're living in dream world.

Bottom line is if you don't want to donate to the FTF then don't!

But to take "pot shots from the cheap seats" for the sake of appearing to want to stick the proverbial boots in is disappointing (again).

I am not doubting what you are sayng about the fine but when it's all said and done I really don't care, it isn't that big of a deal and if that the only thing they get wrong in 2011 then it's going to be a very good year indeed

As I said if you don't want to donate then don't - it's that simple really  :thumbsup
