    I love the Bulldogs but no way could I afford to do this.

    Hate to say it but there’s a lot of worthy causes that I care about that are struggling at the moment that I haven’t already given several hundreds of dollars to this year.

    That a real tough one in these times. Not a lot of job security. Even if your industry is safe now the multiplier effect could take it's toll and then who knows what's impacted. I'm lucky to have a role at NBN extended til September which should be pretty safe (only more demand for the internet right now) but how many are lucky enough to be able to say that?

    Not sure right now is the right time to be asking for more money off our members, we all have bigger fish to fry atm.

    This was immediately obvious to me last night.

    However, the fence and level one digital signage is still in effect, meaning any advertising on the seats would be in conflict unless the brands align.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    Not sure if it has been suggested, but a futures type scenario with membership would make sense to me. Two, five year options ? It would bring in revenue now when needed most and gives time to adjust things to compensate down the track.
