I suspect that playing a lot of games at Etihad will place a cap on the number of members we can generate. Not because its a bad place to watch footy but simply because its capacity means that a lot of folks would need to reserve seats for most games as ooposed to simply walking up to the G

Which is why Collingwood and Hawthorn has massively out-stripped us in the membership stakes - they occupy the MCG as their home base. We have a staduim which can accomodate 52,000 inclusive of AFL, MCC, Medalion Club etc.etc.

Another reason to go back to the MCG.

maybe the AFL can help us pay out our contract at the Dome to get us back to the G (it's in their interest for us to be there now given the gate sales we will create)
