+x+x+xThey did a good job with all access and I'm pretty sure they do the AFLW. Could be a good thing, plus better than working with a start up that has no other clients... Thats what we ALL said when Channel 7 bought the rights to broadcast the NSL. hahahahahahahahahahahah yer the afl aligned station for how long. You see this is where/why I loath this POS McGuire, two faced P who has brandished our game over so so many years, belittled it, daggers in the back, joked about it, though where there's a $$ he's all who wants to be a millionaire man. How can you trust this P whilst he's in the Chairs seat. Its like Lowy having put in ARU/NRL/afl flog CEO's in the past. APL your idiots but not surprised, sure easier making a tie with this known political rich flog due to your budget restrictions instead of working with smaller start up crowd who would bleed doing the best they can for you and you have them in your pocket, whereas ol P Eddie sit in his Chair giving only so much for the pass tick but not more to keep it under control. I agree with everything you say there, but realistically, I don't think there's much they can do here on their end with this deal to fuck us over. Essentially it's a contract to provide cameras and operators to 10 to cover the A-League, if I understand correctly.

I'm not sure they've ever answered the call on that show, don't help themselves sometimes. Maybe they don't want to put their foot in it on the eve of kickoff haha.

Conroy and Garcia were quick to press a view that the impacts of a reduction in club grants didn't have to be detrimental to the on-field product.
Central Coast Mariners, it was observed, were closest to the salary floor in the A-League Men last season but still achieved a historic treble of a premiership, an AFC Cup, and a second straight title.
They also indicated that most -- if not all -- the clubs' existing commitments meant they had already met the salary floor for the coming season, and that none had indicated they would experience any sort of existential peril as a result of the cuts.

That’s their version, obviously the man paying the bills at the Mariners doesn’t feel the same way.

Despite the APL being as skint as the inhabitants of the Matthew Talbot Hostel the on field product is ironically better than it's ever been and gets better every season.
No thank to the fucking corporate mongs who are attempting to bankrupt the game.

Having paid staff to conduct an off field review in 2023 and come up with the idea that making 'Number of wins" more important than "Goal Difference" in League tie-break APL have now conducted another review and decided that last years change didn't actually "enable the most compelling product on the pitch" They have now decided to reverse that decision and come back to what the rest of the world worked out long ago No wonder half of them were sacked, clearly just doing shit to look busy https://aleagues.com.au/news/a-leagues-rules-regulations-confirmed-2024-25-season-ladder-sorting-change/

A-Leagues turn to TikTok in bid to ‘supercharge’ football’s appeal to younger fans
Our job is to bring in new fans into the top of the funnel.” Garcia said one of the strengths of the A-Leagues is the passion at the bottom of its “funnel”, a marketing metaphor where a wide array of casual fans at the top are funnelled towards being more committed at the bottom. “We [the APL] are going to be very ‘top of funnel-focused’ as we go forward. As an example, that could be about doing campaigns on TikTok – which we will do by the way – because we know that young fans consume there, and they are new fans we can pull in,” he said. “Modern Australia, this young fan base, that’s going to become really important.” TikTok Australia’s general manager for business Brett Armstrong said the platform would “continue to work with the A-League”.

+x+xJust picturing all of the players realising they no longer need to buy their SO a new outfit for the evening. "The Australian Professional Leagues (APL) have chosen to tone down this season's Dolan-Warren celebrations, which are usually held in the lead-up to A-League Men grand final week at a glitzy ceremony" "We've had some fantastic events over the years - of all different variety - but this year we wanted to bring the awards closer to fans and give them a platform to be celebrated during the biggest games of the year." "Other awards will be announced digitally" hahahahahaha the marketing spin is strong with these guys... hahahahahah Yes love that spin
