Hello fellow Demons Supporters! :D

I'm actuallly surprised that nobody has mentioned this on Demonland yet?

Mates of Melbourne or "MoM" for short is a business networking group set up to help support the Melbourne Football Club.

Here is the link to the article on the MFC website: http://www.melbournefc.com.au/tabid/7415/D...px?newsid=67555

The link to the official MoM website can be found here: http://www.matesofmelbourne.com.au/

I'm not a business owner myself but those who are business owners I suggest you get involved and do your bit to help contribute to this clever idea. :)

It's not just for business owners, but for those who are interested in business networking & helping MFC.

It seems like a good initiative for business people and the Club.

NB: It is surprising it hasn't been mentioned here - I'm pretty sure it was discussed on Demonology.

how does this actually help melbourne and what exactly is it? (please use easy words)

It's a business networking group - a way to make and develop contacts in the business world. The common theme is the Melbourne Football Club.

Mates of Melbourne will also create a group of business people who are - in the most part - interested in the Dees, and there 'will be unique Mates of Melbourne projects for fans to be involved in, that will in turn help to develop and sustain MELBOURNEfc’s business'.

Hope that makes sense.

Will this networking help prospective Primary Teachers?

Sure - you'll need to manage your money well, so the superannuation seminar might be handy ;)

i went to the MOM launch last week at the reach centre in Collingwood....

Its actually not an MFC thing it was designed and introduced bu Neitz, Paul Hopgood, Anthong Ingerson and a couple of Exec types, one from Deloitte and another from somehwere....

It was an invite only even and there was probably 200 people there, they gave us free wallets and a handful of cards to habd out to our friends.....

Connoly spoke as did Jimmy and it was a good fun night...... Alot of heavy corporates there hopefully dipping into there pockets.....

its simply a social networking tool conecting melbourne people. it is 350 bucks to join and a piece of that goes to the club....

get on board

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
