Good to see the MFC building on an existing relationship.

Hopefully the next news is the big one!

[Pates 9,659]

That is good news, I hope the major sponsor is sorted out soon as well.

Did anyone get the feeling last night that the club may announce a major sponsor soon, perhaps to coincide with the announcement of our new draftees tomorrow? Or at least soon after the draft?

[Rogue 585]

^ I didn't.

[Redleg 40,817]

^ I didn't.

Neither did I.

[Rhino Richards 1,467]

Me neither.

But it is welcome indeed.

I understand an announcement is imminent.

We just need the ink to dry on the agreement.

I suspect, we will not hear anything until the New Year though.

That's some pretty wet ink

Well.....it's that time of the year, which tends to delay these things. Like the draft, the Christmas break, Chanukah, and.............what is it again?

Oh yes, the global financial crisis. Sorry for the use of a metaphor.

On SEN this morning it was said that the Dogs, Tigers and Dees were about to announce major sponsorship deals. That said, there is little you can rely on that is said on that station, particularly 'prizes' of golf games with one former 'star' who now features on the station.

Don't think so. I spoke to a Director of the club tonight and he said they were working on a couple of possibles but there was much work to be done.

What exactly am I looking at on that link?

[Demon_Tingles 211]

Now that we have secured Watts at number 1 and a few more promising youngsters surely now we can get a major sponsor on board. The photos yesterday of the Melbourne recruits in their team polo shirts were good until there was an ugly blank bit where the sponor goes.

Does anybody know if we are close to securing a major sponsor because yesterday we got the picks and players we wanted however looked very silly without a sponsor on the shirt of the club.

that's what I'd like to know

more deafening silence from the club on this massive issue

[QueenC 74]

that's what I'd like to know

It was a statement about the still in place partnership with Volvo.

[deanox 9,897]

instead of having blank space we should have a little 'your ad here' logo to get people thinking about potential exposure. maybe it would look tacky, but it could get the message across...

Today in the Age Sport section there was a half page advertisement dedicated to announcing the No.1 Draft Choice, also asking the public or 'sponsor' to come on board. The footy guernsey is plain to see minus the sponsor. Good Advertisement I thought at an opportune time for a sponsor to put their hand up!

And what a truly beautiful guernsey it is!

What a great opportunity lost for a sponsor to be blazed all over the TV and press in the last few days. Watts was everywhere and the publicity would have been fantastic for a sponsor.

It is not getting easier to get one. Hopefully we will soon get some good news on this front. The revenue is sorely needed.

This is a huge problem. We've got the (very marketable) no. 1 pick to parade about, yet no company wants to align themselves with us. Meanwhile, Carlton gets another sponsor (Malaysia Tourism). They've got three sponsors I think (Hyundai, Optus, Malaysia).
