Re: Major Announcement @ 12

It's Great news, however if I remember correctly, Mission originally signed for 3 yrs with a 2 year extension clause. In effect all they have done is honoured that extension early and then added another 2 year extension on to it. They haven't "really" signed on for an extra 3 years, just brought the extension forward and given us hope after 2014

Not true - signed three years from 2009 to 2011. Now another three, 2012 to 2014, plus a two year option.

Sheesh...talk about a glass half empty response. This is good news whichever way you look at it.

Now I've read the above post, the news is even better.

Obviously my mistake. I Honestly thought the extension was part of it

This is certainly a boost - guaranteed major sponser means Garlic & Co will have more time to look at other revenue streams rather than spruiking ourselves to find a replacement.

Looks like Mexican is on the menu for a while yet

Just another piece in the puzzle that has changed the Club into a modern winning culture. Congratulations to David Smorgon and teh negotiating team.

Re: Major Announcement @ 12

Was at a Texas rangers baseball game last year, and they had a great thing happening, if in the 5th innings (Taco innings as it was known) the home team hit a home run, the whole crowd got a coupon for a free Taco.

needless to say we were very happy when it sailed out over the back wall!

We sooooo need to do this, dogs win the flag, free Tacos for everybody!

Those things are addictive. I can down a whole packet in no time. Flat bread is great too!

With a new commitment from Mission, may I suggest the family also make a new new commitment to eat, win loose or draw?

Re: Major Announcement @ 12

Yipeeeeee. This is great news.


Congrats to the administration of the club-they have turned us from a basketcase that no-one wanted to know into a vibrant go ahead organisation. Well done to Rose/Garlick, Smorgon and the rest of the off-field crew.

Re: Major Announcement @ 12

Just bought some wraps this morning and didn't even know this was happening. Most fortuitous!

I had them last night...almost tempted to back up.

This is fantastic ... a sponsor actually re-upping their commitment? I can't ever remember that happening before.
