Hi Guys
Good news - All systems go!
We're up to $700 which should be enough to get us going. I will PM you details on how to send the money when I get home tonight.

Hi guys
I am in the process of writing to the Club Presidents and Secretaries seeking their approval to sell the bumper stickers at club games.
Initially, one of the proposals was to distribute the funds raised between those clubs running their own 'Own The Force' campaigns.
To make it fairer and palatable to all clubs, I would like to propose that any funds we raise be used to bestow shares to Future Force Foundation and the RugbyWA Juniors. In the event that the campaign fails, then all money raised would be shared between these two.
Please let me know if you support this position.

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
Something that has been bothering me is that the Wallabies major sponsor has Perth splashed across nearly all of its adverts at the moment. I wonder how do these two brands align at the moment. Qantas with major expansion into the west coast and the ARU with a very public proposal to reduce. If I was any of the ARUs sponsors and especially Qantas I would not be happy with the negative press. The ARU may find it very hard in future to get sponsor if they keep going down this track.
Generally speaking you aren’t learning much if your lips are moving!!!
Andrew,Make sure the printer uses lightfast inks,unlike the one who printed this years WF bumper stickers!
Thanks for the heads up gunny. I'l ask our chief designer to specify that in the brief
Are you suggesting that If it was the ARU, maybe they were hoping we would fade away just like the bumper stickers?
No Sir, I'll leave the wild conspiracy theories to those who really have a passion for concocting them; Wouldn't want to step on someone's toes or upset anybody now would I
I was just thinking back to last year and what an absolute debacle the memberships were.
So was more of a "we still haven't learnt any lessons" or a "the ARU are really that useless across the board"
Or maybe it was just a teething problem, with how new of a concept these 'bumper sticker' things are nowadays. -_-
