Why can't clubs charge what they like?
If Centrals & South are located in lower socio-economic areas, surely it should be made cheaper to attend the footy?
If it only cost $8 to get in to Elizabeth Oval, would attendances rise to the point that more money is being made than there was when it cost $14 to get in?

Apparently the clubs only make about $1.50 from each ticket sold. That information came from a person that visited my place of employment last week that is employed by the SANFL. You may know who I'm talking about. ;)

Or get more entertainment for kids. Like the jumping castles etc...


Hire "Duncs dunking machine " for half time entertainment . Get Brett duncanson to sit in the dunking machine and for $1 u get 2 throws. I'm sure he wouldn't complain if he actually made the SANFL some money

Just an idea . In sure im not alone in admitting I'd pay $5 if allowed to throw something at Duncs

Reckon that prices will reduce to $10 next year. This is the first off season that the new SANFL people can influence pricing.

My idea is to have the option to buy an admission ticket for say $20 which is redeemable for beer or food. You therefore get in for nothing if it is spent on beer or food. Most then would spend another $20 on beer which would generate more profit than a $1.50 per head to get in !
Needs work but you get my drift.

Admission won't come down, they will leave it at $14 and pretend they are doing people a favour in doing so

Only as high as they are now as the SANFL triese somehow to try and recoup all the money the PAFC have bled from the SANFL to survive year after year.

The SANFL Clubs will run their own Gates from 2014 onward so will have a lot more say in what the prices are. Also the ability to put in place tings like 3 game tickets and such.

the best way for people to actually support their club is to still buy home and season tickets.

Did Port drop their admission price to $10 for the match last Sunday?

OK if you can attend every week.
I went once this year and had to take out a second mortgage - I haven't gone back since
I dont envy someone taking kids as well
