i wish we kept our next home game @bankwest can’t afford to forfeit that home ground dominance. Also the following match is against the tigers at their home, bankwest. Weird to step into their jungle and away locker rooms I.e our home ground.

I was thinking same today . After being there for Broncs I can see how much of a wonderful plus it is .....
i know it’s a sponsorship thing w NT but a win is a win and if it gets you into the 8 it’s value is limitless imo
Carls its dinner time, shouldnt you be preparing a meal for the hubby and family instead of neglecting your womanly duties?'
Do you have permission to post at this time?
We have a much better chance of beating the raiders at BankWest than Darwin. Those 2 points could be the difference between success and failure. The NT deal also reduces the value of a ticketed membership.
Anyone have any ideas on how much the NT sponsorship is worth?
When does our contract run our with Darwin hope we dont do it again now we got a brand new stadium
It expired in 2016 and we renewed it for a further 4yrs. The money the club makes off it was too good to refuse.
I understand the Darwin game. The club makes about 1 million dollars a year with the partnership with the NT, we’d be stupid to say no to that.
As for the Tigers game at BankWest. They’ve scored 6 points there and we’ve won 4/5 there. I say let us play away games there v the Tigers for years to come. I guarantee it feel like a home game for the Eels more then it will for the Tigers.
If we have to play NT, let's play the teams in the bottom 8 not the top 8. I'm sure this had to be done in advance but gee, the Raiders wouldn't have been my pick. We've hardly beaten them the last couple of years.
Even though it is counted as our away game, we will be using the "home" side of the lockers as the tigirls have opted to use the same dressing rooms and all as they did for the inaugural match.
