    Strange that anyone would work at that level where he could be out the door tomorrow with nothing !! Whether its true or not..I personally find it hard to swallow that there was no 'handshake" fee attached

    that is actually how i read it as well.

    i thought i heard that because he was an unproven CEO in terms of footy etc (dont kid yourself, aus open ran for 2 weeks of the year), and because of how we were burnt with the pay out of harris, that the board did not put him on a contract. ie you are working for this much per week etc for no fixed term.

    i could be wrong, but thats how i read it.

    Wholly siht!

    Wow.

    That's brilliant, that's this years $2million debt wiped off already!

    That will be front page news tomorrow.

    Nope Pies being so "tough" on there star players is front page I would think.

    How good is that! We would all ove to be in a position to be able to donate that kind of cash. They are great men!

    "Legends including Ron Barassi, Hassa Mann, Robbie Flower, Greg Wells, David Neitz, David Schwarz, Peter Moore, Todd Viney and Noel McMahen were present at the function in Kensington."

    Todd Viney was there? Even better news.... :)

    Great result by the club! :wub:

    Already an extra 20,000 today.

    Yes but foxtel matched every dollar over 100k. So you double what was donated.

    They match every dollar up to $100,000, not over.

  • Quote

    Thanks Gouga, not only was that wrong, but it also didn't make mathematical sense.

    Interesting how that figure could be changed so much

  • Quote

    No Foxtel matched the first $100k raised. Not Every Dollar raised over, although that would have been nice.

    If i could shake the hand of ever man and woman who donated money to the club I would, Sincere thanks from me to all who donated.

    What a Day, we raise 2 mil, the Filth are all over the place suspending players and pretty much trading Didak, could there be a better day other than winning a flag?

    I don't think so!

    I think the players banner should have a thank you to those people.

    It's nice to wake up and read that such a sizeable chunk of the club's debt has been wiped in one swoop. $2,051,000 in one night! Thanks to everyone present for their generosity. Well done.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
