I'm expecting it to be moved to the Dome but as yet it hasn't.

The Dragons have it being played at Telstra Dome which we all know it is no longer called that, when you look at the Dragons site for the schedule it is listed still at OP.

Expect it to be announced mid Jan a week before tickets go on sale.

Looking at http://www.telstradome.com.au/page/defa ... e=Calendar the best options to move would be Round 1 vs Dragons and Round 10 vs Raiders. Most of the other rounds Docklands is already booked up for AFL. The Broncos game in Round 13 would have been ideal for a Friday night match but AFL has booked the entire weekend.

Bourban Rat, please don;t be offended, but if you are a true supporter and want the team to survive you should buy a membership.  If they do move a game or two it is only to get extra support for the Storm :D

The True supporter" crap doesn't wash - It's put out by the club to draw in suckers.

I WORK late on Friday & have problems getting from where I work to Calamity Dome any work night so..............
Do I lash out $201 for General membership + Social club for the maybe 6 home games I can get too ?
Or would you rather I risk losing my job so I can be a "True supporter" ?

See you in 2009 for my 12th season as a Storm fan.

Sorry, sounds like I have offended you.  Look I understand your position.  I guess I just mix and go to Storm games with people who buy a membership even if they can't go to games, etc. ..so that's where I was coming from....not to hurt you. :(

You didn't  ;-) The one thing about this forum, we hope, is that everyone is entitled to their opinion,(though sometimes it may seem otherwise).
Trolls of course are the exception  :twisted:

I think just about everyone on here knows that Friday,Monday games & that stadium are my unholy trinity of pet hates.Unless I & others who have problems with said trinity suddenly become the norm the club will continue to pursue what they,(or their marketing gremlins) perceive as "good for growth") - Fact of Life  :icon_frown:

BTW - You'll find me,(well the back of my purple fedora ) & some of my happy band of fellow fools on page 26 of the membership pamphlet  ;-)
