Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 -
Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader.
Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward.
Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I?
Update on Quins Mogs :-
Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo.
Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas.
Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9.
Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg |

Anyone know if this event is still on? Haven't seen anything on the Quins site. Think it's a fund-raiser for Sonny Fai (some of our team and Manly are there with shirts and stuff to raffle).
Ady- might be worth flagging it up on the Quins board and Totalrl, as not all Quins fans are aware of this board.

Could be due to on-going lack of a CEO and a Marketing manager. Think the QRL is somewhat of a 'headless' chicken plus sometimes wonder what the 'internal' PR boy does to justify his pay.
Anyway will be at the Walkabout to contribute to their fundraiser.......

Not too far away from the truth with that evaluation. If it was up to me (which it plainly never will be) I would have pushed this on the web site, through email and through a mail-shot. Walkabout managers are in charge of their own marketing and promotion spends and to be honest, why would they want to partner with us if we aren't prepared to play "scratchy backy"? 
Looking forward to Thursday night. |

Adam, the manager at SheBu Walkie (as our antipodean cousins have started calling the place!), is an out and out AFL man. Plays for and sponsors West London Wildcats.
Can't see him wanting to get involved with Quins RL in any meaningful way.

Oh well.....must have been his day off when this fundraiser was planned then
Of course he would welcome a tie in. Yes, AFL is king of kings and he will of course sponsor the AFL boys first, but if he is on the ball, he won't rule out some form of tie in with QRL .......and we really can't afford to be too picky can we.
If we offered a prize 1 box a fortnight, with raffle tickets being sold all week long behind the bar and revenues being split between the club and a charity of SheBu's choice, we should raise at least a bit of interest, which is more than we did last year. Unless of course we have gone from 1 box sold last season to all boxes sold out this season  |

| The Quins site have posted the event......better late than never.
Perhaps the noticed the anti- comments posted here and decided to do some worthwhile work before the 'backoffice' team were really 'slaged-off'
Expect they will claim that they all were 'bogged down' dealing with tickets for Sunday!! |

Generally speaking I agree with you about the club's marketing and promotional activities, but having had first hand dealings with the manager I think this is a one off thing for him. I seriously don't think he'd be interested in any kind of ongoing association with the club. I think his interest in this event is mainly because of the situation surrounding Sonny Fai and the opportunity to market the Sea Eagles to his customers.

What a ridiculous attitude if true. Would love to see what his senior managers thought of this. |

AFL fans usually do have their head stuck up their ass and beleive the BS that their front office delivers.
The look of horror on a victorian/south aussie/west aussie when you tell them you dont have an AFL team that you support is pricesless.
Conversation usually runs like this:
Victard: So who do you follow in the footy
Me: Parra
Victard: No, the real footy
Me: Oh football, fulham.
Victard: No, real footy. Aussie Rules
Me: What? I dont watch it
Victard: jaw hits the ground. then goes on rant how melbourne is better then sydney, and that no, they dont have a chip on their shoulder. |
