Prices seem very reasonable to me for two games - Workers 2:45 pm & Sea Eagles 5 pm - $10 general, $5 concession & children.

I think its more around the Brookie home games like the first one against Souths. $70 to sit in the KA Stand is a bit steep.

Tom is obviously faking that smile - all to conceal the pain of a severed hammy. I can’t believe the club is trotting (literally) him out like that and making him continue with this facade.

I can understand the upset from a lot of long term season ticket holders would have. They have always paid a lot of money each year for their seats and last year pledged considerable amounts. They are really the ones that have been screwed over. Members like myself and others that make the odd few games and are happy to pay per game won't get too upset as it is normal. But if I pledged between 400 to 700 dollars last year for basically very little and now to sit in the same seat it will cost me nearly double sometimes triple over the course of this season for the same thing, I would be annoyed too. A lot of these fans are pensioners who have been coming for years that have that seat as family tradition, some were season ticket seats of those who had passed on which their family's still pay to keep for sentimental reasons and some older fans just need a seat as they aren't able to sit or stand in the cold on the hill anymore. It's not fair that people call them whingers I believe they have legitimate issues that are being ignored by the membership people at the club and a smart business and marketing manager would be bending over backwards to get in touch with them and try to resolve some issues because these people have spent thousands on season tickets over the years with the club and a lot of them are on the verge of walking away from expensive season tickets and memberships that they would have happily renewed previously and once they go they are extremely hard to get back.We won't lose them as members because they love the club, but they will slash their overall spend if they get used to being general admission punters. The club needs to do better by these members.

The password sent to members gives us the honour of buying the same hill tickets available to the general public. All grandstands being held by WT for their own members.

Yes that is exactly what I’m reading.

No big deal for me who might go once a year , $70 no issue.

But boy they are pissing off some long standing season ticket holders.

Let us put things in perspective

The North Sydney Bears are raising millions for the opportunity to play games in the NRL
and Some only Some Manly fans are complaining about the PRICELESS moments of seeing their club competing for the title this year

There are 2 types of people in this world
The Passionate
and the
Passion fruits

Whingers will always whinge

Round 2 of Harold Matthews and SG Ball kicks off tomorrow, we're playing Souths at Redfern Oval and it's going to be live streamed on the NSWRL website! There's a Fainu and Hopoate in the Harold Matts, and our CEO's son Jamie as well as a Watmough and Fulton named in the SG Ball squad for this week. Keen to see our up and comers!

Putting a Dollar value on things that brings us happiness in life makes little cents

Happiness is PRICELESS
Just ask the Bear supporters

God Bless our Legendary Manly Sea eagles club

I can guarantee that apart from a few millionaire backers who are more wanting to gain on their business prospects, the actual working class Bears fans are raising sweet f*** all for their club to come back to the NRL.

What Manly lacking is offering up options to members, especially trying to sign up new members that turns the just the $1-2 million into $4-5 million of income from members.

Do you think other clubs who have been cellar dwellers for years would have big member numbers without offering more than what our pathetic membership offers are?

If you do, then you’re the definition of what your username means.

When the club says they’re a business and need to at least break even, then members are going to treat the club as a business e.g only invest in what they feel is going to be beneficial to them.

Charging in some instances 50% more and offering even less than last year is not what I call good business.

We have a choice

We spend our money on the things we enjoy in life

Or save it all for here

You have an option .

What are North Sydney offering ?

Go and support North Sydney in the NSW up and invest the money that you save
and put it in your grave .

Because Smart people know that the only thing we take with us is PRICELESS memories

As soon as we start putting a value on things that we love we lose the Value of life

That's not the case at all. With all that COVID-19 has done, everyone's financial status is so unpredictable. It is so fair that we are complaining that our membership has doubled from last season. I'm lucky that I can sit on the hill instead for half the price of our usual stand, but my grandparents will not be able to attend many games this season as $70 for a seat is way too much on their pension. Really sad for them after they have been following the club since its establishment

26 cheerleaders doesn't seem like enough. We need a top 30, then reserves.

Gee Gosiewski is looking primed. Bigger, fitter than last year. Would love to see him bring a bit of no holds barred Ronnie Rambo Gibbs style to our play.

Also photo of Funa running beside new winger Tupi - Tupi looks a specimen as well. No mention of him being a lead contender for wing but I think he has a big future in the centres/wing and played well for the Chooks last year with limited opportunities.
