These are the departures that we know of. What about the ones that haven’t been publicized?

I don't disagree with your above points, but they also don't mesh with the realities of the Adelaide labour market, especially for workers entering the labour market post GFC.
There's a reason why Adelaide is considered to have the best retail staff in the country, and it's not because there is an over-abundance of talented people dying to work in a low paying industry.
There has been a lot of issues with BSA's performance, and salaries may explain some of that, but they do not explain all of it, nor a majority in my opinion.

60k plus super is super low DC. Most people who already have meaningful employment wouldn't even consider it.


$60K plus super is not low pay in the Adelaide job market. Walk through any suburban call center with over qualified people processing insurance cancellations in sub $50k jobs.

What do stadium managers do?

And there is exactly the problem.
Low salaries equals small pool of suitable applicants, so the end result is people only take it on until they find a real job.

You can look up their job descriptions and find stadium managers on around $60k plus super up to high performance at $75k plus super and some have cars. Leave it to you all to decide what you think..


Would hate to be competitions manager, no-one is ever happy. And before people start, yes it is the job but a hard one.


Just read this in an article on NBA.com. Bit surprised this would be published on the NBA's website, but it cracked me up so I had to share! :D
"Not long after he (Lebron) and the Heat left Quicken Loans Arena after their shootaround, bomb-sniffing dogs were brought in to sweep the areas near the Miami's locker room.
Asked if this was routine for every game, a POLICE OFFICER said, "No, just for that (f#$ker)."
