Good idea or just a stupid gimick?

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
I think it's a good idea to engage the fans, especially the kids (and big kids). Would be a bit of excitement to try and spot yourself in the crowd.
What I want to know is if you get to keep your cutout after the season?

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
Can someone submit a photo of Essendon old boy Adam Cooney in his Dogs gear just for a laugh.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
Love the idea. Also like they did not use it as money making opportunity when temptation would have been there. Will be a cost in making the cutouts. Perhaps make donation optional in future games to increase the virtual cheer squad numbers.....

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
Both of my young kids are keen.
Its not for me, but I'd love to see thousands of kids get involved with this.

I think they said it was dependent on getting a sponsor to foot the cost and Pedigree seem to have come to the party.

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
Good idea for some, I’m sure, but I think it’s a stupid gimmick, and won’t be doing it.

Agree. Piped crowd noise, fake supporters it's getting kind of embarrassing.

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
Yeah, this is an opt in that I won't be bothering with.
As I've said previously, if the product itself and the supporting broadcast commentary of it were of a high enough standard none of this would be needed.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Dominic Cummings at an NRL game gave me a chuckle.
Just uploaded a pic of my son, he'll get a kick out of it if he makes the cut

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
kids will love it. Good on em.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Re: Virtual Cheer Squad
I think its a FANtastic (see what I did there) initiative from the club and am disappointed its limited to just 1000 members !!
