General Finals Week 1 Ticketing Process

[juju]

double what revenue? sky sports nz pay for the whole finals package in advance, it does not go up down or sideways depending on 1) the warriors making the finals, 2) anything else is on in their timeslot.

it's a drop in the bucket compared to the foxtel revenue who don't even have the rugby rights anymore and that and ch 9 are the broadcast partners they care about.

The gate takings at mt smart won't be affected as games not in auckland.

Yeah no revenues will be doubled - just the prospect of annoyed broadcasters

the NRL didnt schedule any games to avoid the Lions v Wallabies tests.
They wont give a crap about some shitty rugby game in NZ

Their broadcasting partner will most certainly give a shit.

Warriors playoff game is a bit different context to regular season games.

The NRL just emailed out AAN codes to members.

Love the 15 mins to mentally prepare yourself beforehand

How are the marketing team gonna generate the hype for this lol, we crawled our way to the finish line and have been awful at home

They won't need to. Finals game at Mt Smart is an easy sell.

Tickets for first home game next season might be a bit tougher if we get steam rolled though. Off season will dull people's memories I would think

"But imagine being there if we pulled off the craziest upset of all time"

"If you don't come, you're a fake fan"

"Free 6 pack of donuts on entry"

"Michaela Brake will tell you off if you don't"

It won't be tough. They'll just need to evoke memories of the last playoff game and how good that was.

Yeah, the reality is different this time around, but they will probably lean into a "one last ride" type of positioning.

Sounds like the club want the sunday slot.

Warriors to avoid schedule clash with All Blacks for NRL home final

There’s an awareness that most of the nation will be interested in both big matches.

It’s the NRL, they don’t do us any favours… if the raiders want the Sunday slot, I’m sure they will get it ahead of us

All it actually says is "George has believed to have expressed a preference"

This is like watching movie studios marketing Joker 2 and its trailers as the greatest sequel of all time and then people go in and and you’ve lost them for the next decade

Maybe we can schedule the time that messes with the panthers clock

And Fox League has pretty much run with this in the 1/2 time break between Sharks/Dogs as well. 5:30 k/o NZT.

 

[CWC]

How considerate for a 5.30 kick off and by half time we’d know if we are in the game or not

 

[BlackToko88]

Some talks of potentially being 5pm kick off as ABs is 7pm.

But what @CWC said is true. If its a stinker can leave early and catch the ABs
