    We got a good deal a few years ago because we had Emile Heskey.

    The seasons he was here we only had 8 afternoon home games.

    First season he was gone (Stubbins era) we got 11.

    So we can buy a big name marquee that demands we get prime time exposure, or we start to perform better to warrant the time slot.

    We get the shit slots, less exposure, less attendance (fkn hot), less money.

    You create a divide within the league, top half, bottom half and it will never change.
    You have to earn the big slots

    The Monday game is Boxing Day, so I guess that's not too bad.

    Sunday arvo games do suck though.

    Perhaps the thought is people will be off over the school holidays and families can make a week out of it either side?

    The Thursday is Australia Day so i guess they think people will take the Friday off to make a long weekend of it.

    Same round Wellington at home to Sydney on a Saturday, why (rhetorical) could this game not be swapped around.

    So the Jets are now bending over for North Coast Tourism??

    The only people from Newy who will travel up to Coffs for this game are the same idiots who travel interstate to Sydney to watch the Jets anyway.

    Your not gonna see the family with their dirt cheap membership who can't even be arseddoing going to Gosford loading the kids in the Commodore to pay high season accommodation costs to jaunt up the Pacific Highway for 4 hours just because the Jets are playing

    Waa Waa Waa!

    Lots of teams do it, it's not the end of the world. Deal with it and move on.

    If people don't show up then they will lose money and therefore won't do it again. You win.

    If people show up and they make money, they will do it again. Which would prove you wrong, therefore you will be ok with it.

    If people don't show up and they don't make money but they do it again next year then there is a good chance they have an ulterior motive and then everything was for nothing and we all wasted our time here today. At which point "Fxxk this Club!"

    So, Round 4 looks tasty.
    Everyone take Monday 21 November off work.
    Round 19 should get a big turn out if we aren't in the bottom 3 by that time.
    25 of Feb will be a cracker
    Then we have R25 at home, on a sat against Wankerers
    Away to the scum the next sunday
    And we all travel to Allianz Stadium the next Saturday to collect our trophy!

    Year sorted.

    TBH - would have made more sense to send the Boxing Day game up to Coffs. Could have handled watching cricket all day then the Jets on the box.

    That Friday there will be people working funnily enough and it will be a big shopping day for families getting back to school stuff. I for one can't get up there so thats one family out.
