Juinor Ikea clinic prices - outrageous.

[g0tigers]

Was at the Hawks V Dogs game today, and they were avertising a clinc for young Hawkers on the big screen. They were offering the same kind of things as the Tiges are, i.e - clinc with players, sasauge sizzle, free footy that kind of stuff, but for the price of only $5!!!

Mean while richmond are offering the same sorta thing for around $60-$70 this is crazy!!! Who ever is runnig this thing need to wake up, and realise that not all the tiges supporters are millonares.

Just posting this if anyone is intrested.....Would love to hear some replies.... :

I don't know anything about those clinics g0t but I've been wondering if the club read this board in regard to this kids dinner with the players.
It was originally advertised as a "pie", now its a "special dinner."
Seeing it's still sponsored by 4&20 I wonder if it's still a pie but with a more glorified description because ticket sales for a $60 pie for kids may have been a bit slow.

Thats from the RFC website, and seeing that Hawthorn are offering pretty much the same, if not more $70 is WAY to much.

Who ever is running this PR area or whatever, needs a big wake up call!!

Maybe it's historical.
These clinics have been going for years. Kind of like
the Tiger Cubs picnic. I recall that they've cost roughly
this amount (for the last few years anyway) for a while.
I pay up. It's usually a good day for the kids. The place
is usually crowded ... but yes it's a bit disapointing that
the Dawks do it for much less.

I just think its unfair for the supporters that have 3 or kids even 5 in thier family. $70 a head wouldn't be cheap for them.
