Potential Loss of Our Major Sponsor

[Spartan Eagle]

We should have Coke as our sponsor and Stewart can be the ambassador.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I don't like any form of sponsorship on club merchandise. Then again I live in the dreamy Teal world on the Northern Beaches where the elected politicians believe they can affect 'climate change' in the world!

The dreamy teal world

How’s that going for you ??

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

First it was cigarettes

Now they want to eliminate gambling

Then they’ll punt breweries.

Then they’ll punt fast food chains

How about Huggies Nappies , does that meet the clean , green , woke , gender neutral ideas of today ??

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

I want us to get a major sponsor that has the word 'Turbo' in it. That would look cool

If only SAAB was still a viable car manufacturer.

It would be nice to get a car manufacturer, not a Chinese one, but a Japanese, Korean
or European make.

 

[ManlyTragic]

Play like we did last night and there will be plenty of other Corps willing to step up and fill the void.

You can bet on it!

Just sayin’

 

[ManlyTragic]

Bring back the green blog!

Ok I’m leaving

Bye!

URM could take up the slack again, they've been with us for a long time now. Maybe not for the same $'s, but am sure others will now get on board to cover any potential loss.

What a load of garbage

Considering the impact of gambling I can not see how this is a bad thing. Phase it out over time (same with the crosses etc ) and like tobacco we will only notice the benefit

Of course I am a huge fan of my kids walking around like billboards for a gambling company everyone they wear their over priced footy jerseys

 

[Frogz]

So will this lead to Melbourne Storm owner, Tripp, getting punted also. He owns the BetR business.

An idea worth recycling.

Ironic if he gets punted. Oh, thats probably what you meant. Sorry!

Agree that gambling sponsorships need to be reduced and look forward to that happening overtime.

Thankfully though, kids jerseys don't have the gambling company sponsorships on them. Ours has the Sea Eagles foundation:

How about the brothel that were the major sponsor at Hornsby JRLFC? Winning man of the match awards was very important to the players.

Didn't you play for Hornsby?

I have several jumpers but this is the only one I have ever worn. It has great sentimental value as it is a replica of the first one I had as a kid ...... AND it has no sponsors! I understand the commercial necessity of sponsors but geez it's great without them on my jumper.

 

[ricardo]

The Spearmint Rhino / URM Sea Eagles has my vote

Edit:
Or should it be 30 Brookvale Sea Eagles? Looking forward to the lucky door prize!!

Forgive me if I've got this wrong - but have you just lumped Christianity in with gambling and tobacco usage?

Why?

What's the connection? It seems.............random.

Or does 'crosses' refer to hot cross buns? I like those - please don't ban them!

If someone from a so-called 'Christian' background has seriously wronged you, then - the fault is all theirs. I hope you can find peace some day - if needed.

Bringing the idea of the abolition of Christianity into a topic about gambling sponsorship on jerseys might seem to indicate that an individual has an agenda of sorts.

Politics and religion - things seem to spiral downwards here on Silvertails whenever these areas are brought up. I'm sure all the Mods on here - yourself included - have guidelines on that sort of thing, so we'll leave it there.

BTW - I completely agree with you re: gambling and tobacco. Both bad.

Bring on URM again or since Penn loves himself so much and wants to have his fingerprints all over the club just bring back Penn Health.

My kids wear the small adults (nice and baggy and room to grow!)

Gambling crosses....in the news...

I’m pretty sure a brothel sponsored a V8 race team many years ago.

I don’t have a problem with betting agencies sponsoring any team, just not a competition, would hate the NRL being called the Sportsbet Cup.

I hope they ban advertising of betting agencies though, so sick of seeing television games full of betting ads. Same with commenters talking about punting or crossing to betting agencies talking about different bets, all that should be banned as it’s obvious it’s a paid comment.

Daily Planet in Melbourne I think
