It's a limited market an those that have can define the price.
Those that don't have to fork out.
In general the price of an astro is over the 150 at the very least.
Wasn't the case last year ,less again the season before,,,,,,times have been tough .
Crazy money for clubs that can’t afford it 150 pitch 60 ref 20 wash gear 230 euro before you kick a ball our clubs mad you’d have to have 23 players charging 10 euro ahead to cover it.
If lads want to play they will have to fork out simple asQuote:

No way any player will pay €10 a game. Hard to get any money off fellas these days. Astro pitches have gone through the roof, most places €150 without lights probably €200 with lights. More rain due, can't see many games going ahead this weekend.
Agree hard enough now getting fellas to turn up never mind getting money off um
At some point lads have to stop blaming everyone else the AUL, the weather, lack of players, no funding, the cost of Astros etc.
You got to grab the bull by the horns and get your own house in order set out your own high standards, get on funding and fundraisers and yes at times the price of an Astro will be required.
Be upfront and honest with players this is what is expected here no one’s forcing them to be at a club.
Success will follow might take an extended period but it will come and the club will be better for it in the long run.
There is plenty of clubs who will
half arse it I’m sure they would welcome people with similar mind set with open arms.
The Glorious Business league teams seem to have no issue hiring astros every week whatever the cost . Come on everybody lets all go to the business league with AUL legendQuote:

You’d win every week with the lack of competition.
But let’s stick to the mighty AUL will we? Are we all looking forward to another weekend on the couch!?
I couldn't care less if games get played or not I am well retired, haven't kicked a ball in 5 years . I am just a spectator now when the weather is nice. I aint standing in the rain to watch AUL or CBL matches I am made of soap I will wash away
