Not your club Bugs. You're obsessed.

He should be since 90% of his posts are Roar related.

I believe this photo of him was taken in Foodesgrey

Please, please put me down. 

Yeah, Round 4

Everyone's wearing their joke kit against SFC for some reason

Classic nanny state FFA

Flares are not fine though, if you rip them off you will have the wet lettuce leaf period extended

Carney, living the dream

For sure! :(

She could become Australia's version of Delia Smith, who helped raise Norwich City's profile.

Yep, that is utter cancer.

MT, Caltex,

I'm going to challenge your cancer/awkward marketing experiment statements for Roar/Sydney.

The Moroon and 'State v State' title has created a fair bit of debate amongst Roar fans with a vocal minority against it and their mantra is something like "we're not Rugby League" but ...

... Reds v Victory rivalry is built from the old AFL state of origin rivalry. And it's worked.

..... The Big Blue rivalry was built on two city's perpetual rivalry. And it's worked.

........Roar has failed unequivocally to create anything like these two. Even when GC and fury were in. So the intent of this is to start something and build on it.

It's obvious that the state v state rivalry with nsw is the only one that exists and can be leveraged, so it's the (only) place to start without trying to reinvent the wheel

In the past statements like "it's our state of origin" have failed badly only serving to highlight the gap between the two. So thankfully the club have dropped the direct link to SOO and instead focused on the state rivalry and - indirectly- drawing on SOO feelings.

As usual the target is not rusted on fans, like Yoshi, the target is fans who might go but probably won't without a reason or who have never been. And with limited marketing budget the reach to get to those fans is via free media not paid advertising

But to get media to cover you there has to be an angle, and that angles not the quality of football or the nature of this one game because they'll give that minimal coverage as usual the challenge is to get that and some ...

Some fans don't like the Moroon but the media are loving it. Tick.

Some fans don't like state v state but the media are lapping it up. Tick.

Some fans didn't like a SOO star turning up at Roar training but the media, tv in particular, covered it extensively. Tick.

So if this is an awkward marketing experiment it has increased awareness of Saturday's game outside of the usual crowd, it's increased media coverage with tv/radio/media/web activity higher than normal, Broncos have the largest following and it's reached into that base (and yes many leaguies also follow soccer) so, how awkward is awkward and who's the judge?

Many fans complain clubs don't market or advertise their games - then there's another set that complain when they do lol

Queensland Roar failed. They had the chance.

Sydney v Roar is a nothing game for neutrals.

Roars biggest game, like most clubs is MV.

This whole "we are Queensland" crap is crap. No one buys it.

So you're speaking for everyone in Queensland are you Caltex? What a wanker lol

MT,

There's a little video here:

http://www.brisbaneroar.com.au/article/roar-honoured-to-wear-maroon/9dyveukvucr11aonvulp7wab0

Which is Billy Moore talking to the Roar players at training this week, you can see the tv coverage taking place while he speaks as well as some of the press (the speach is simple but impressive) and this video is on its way to being the most shared video produced by Roar. Not bad.

So it's easy to be critical of marketing (and many people are for the sake of it) but when marketing creates an awareness and a preference for a product, especially in new markets, it's doing something right. Football fans have a habit of whinging just for the sake of it in this country and we need to cut it out, it's just marketing folks - do we want to grow the game or not?

What does Billy Moore reckon to Broich's theatrics ?

@ SFT

it's all in your head mate, it's all in your head.

But if you wanna know what Billy thinks tweet him and ask him yourself, I'm sure he'll answer, well kinda sure ..

This is honestly so cringeworthy that I love it with the entirety of my being.

nice tie gallop, btw.

Do those RBB videos count?

Yes
