$5 for the best seat in the house and $2 for the outers please ...and park a hot dog van behind centre field. How about this plan:Outer entry behind HR fence $2, bring your own drinks and seats, NO bottles allowed, cans only. Hot Dog Vendor and 2 Port-a-potties supplied out there. Main Seating, prepaid tickets or $10 adult entry gets you prime seats. $5 entry gets you secondary seating behind 3rd and 1st base. All main stadium patrons can choose from either Burger Van or Holloway Canteen for food. This might be the plan to break 600+ crowd? Thoughts?

well i personally wouldn't pay to watch them at the moment, due to the fact some of the politics that are going on in the rams squad. i thought this was ment to be the best player's in each state? i was there sat nite and watch three infielder's two of them are signed infielders play outfield and were the reason they lost. you have a guy sitting on the bench who is one of the best out fielder's in the state. does not make sence to me just because he is not from a certain club. thats all i will say on the matter. im a fan of qld baseball but doenst make andy sence to me.

I remember being a kid watching baseball at the old Musketeers ground and seeing the whole right field line crowded just for the basic run of the mill Friday night club game. Be great to see that again and whilst I was too young to remember, I have heard about the crowds at the old Claxton games and the people in those teams are still spoken about today. I guess you have to build a legacy and get people talking.

But maybe 50 adults and 30 kids made up a crowd there back in the '70s. When my team played Muskets, I was always one of those 20-30 kids having fun at Spring Street Booval. We need that same atmosphere X 10 for the new ABL crowd numbers.

Rory's one of the good young players on the team. Funny enough, he didn't know he was on the team. Hadn't gone to the meeting or the try outs. Great addition, though.

Hold on - I just read the old thread and it states only players who tryd out were able to play for Queensland, was Rhodes sent and S.O.S. to help the Rams out was he, what about other players that did try out, what are they chopt liver?

I would say a number were automatic selections. Wasn't Naughton overseas when the meeting and tryouts were held? Not sure. If we are selecting our best players, I would think a lot of them would be automatics -- whether or not they attend any meeting or try out. Personally, I would like to see them also play club ball, but some have been told by their pro clubs not to.

Thanks, T, for the English lesson!!! Still taking into account all costs, there is no way I would spend $1000 a year on playing baseball. Perhaps you should ask Santa to bring you some new equipment and then you'll be able to afford the huge cost of watching the Rams play!!!
Rams44, I love your plan. Makes perfect sense and accomodates for everyone, even T ...is $2 OK, T?

see thats the point you have guys that are signed who are hitting a buck 90 overseas, and they get picked straight away and then you have guys that are sitting on the bench with better hitting number's here and can field the outfield better? no sence to me

It shows that the bread and butter of Queensland A grade baseball are not wanted, but they would gladly take our money though to come watch players like Ten said, children don't care if a player is signd by a MLB Club, all they care about is watching the best current inform people in baseball that Queensland has to offer perform, the fact that we are 3 and 14 may show that.
And I at this stage will not redeem by rain out ticket to the next home game, the dentist pulling my teath might be better then watching more mis reads in LF n RF at windsor.
