As long as its a new concept that is devoid of the OLD heirarchy! New set up is what is needed. reinvigorate the whole darn thing I say.

Been far too long between drinks.

Maybe if the games were held as curtain raisers to the A- League games it would promote the Womens A-League better. Beats watching a Idol-Drop-out performing!!!!!!!!

well i think the mens A league games aswell as the womens should be advertised on tv.. half of the people dont even know a womens league is going to take place thats just stupid! more money should be put into promotion

more moeny should be spent on the womens game all together

you have to look at it from both ways.. no money will eva be made from the womens game if people dont go to the games and pay to watch them

but how are people sposed to go to the games if they dont know about them?

not every1 goes on the forums n websites to check when the next games on n where.. the game has to have certain appeal for people to want to watch the games and the way i see it that comes from advertising

you can advertise all you like, but if the product isn't any good, who is going to buy it?

The product is good. And I think it would be beneficial to the profile it were paired up with the A-League games.

Said it before but years back when it did play as a curtain raiser to Ad United Mk1, the spectators commented favourable on the game and skills of the players. And towards the end of the WNSL, many came early to see the game.

Then it died.

if adelaide want to get a lot of people heading to their games they need a few high profile players
so when they advertise they can have someone along the lines of diane alagich who EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVEERYONE knows.... meaning a lot more of the public will get involved in the womens league and will hopefully build a fan base to hellp them get over the line during those tough matches...

hope everyone has a gd xmas.. seeya!

i agree with shorty

the organisers need to express appeal for the game n the best way is high profile players and there will be.. its just down to the public hopefully alota people would wanna watch

I think most people are over the wnsl. The W^&*ers killed it off 2 years ago when there was no wnsl. It got killed when it was at its peak. Great planning genii.

RIP.

I agree shorty! If you did get someone involved like Diane Alagich people would come to games. She is a local Adelaidian that plays for the Matildas, and has represented Australia in the World Cup.
Di is a role model, a local hero and a prime example of the standard and style of soccer played in South Australia!

That’s what will attract people to come to the games!
