Sponsors ?

Gday again demonlanders it has been a while since my last post but that was due to the fact I moved to Melbourne.

Now on my agenda is a question.

Has the Melbourne Football Club found a sponsor yet as surely that would help us in our times of financial crisis. From memory ( I may be wrong) but didn't we lost Primus as a sponsor at the end of last year.

Richmond announced a new one today http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sport/afl...9-19742,00.html

So it reminded me that I do not know if we have found one yet.

With the exciting times ahead with us gaining the number one national and pre season draft picks surely the people that are employed to get off their asses and find some sponsors can use that to our advantage.

Surely we cannot go into the season with no sponsor on our team polos or jumpers.

thats why the mfc should have drafted ............ (I'm not going to start that debate again!)

No sponsor, issues with AFL and MCC handouts = Trouble for 09. A major sponsor is needed by the end of Jan from where i sit or we are in trouble

Haha I didnt mean to start that debate I just meant with the talent we now have surely it would not be that difficult to get a major sponsor. I mean this is the oldest club in football and one with a rich tradition that is playing Australia's national sport of AFL.

I mean for god sakes Sandringham have more sponsors than we do.

 

A question I suppose needs to be asked. Do we devalue our brand and take what we can get for 1 yr? instead of say $1m for outright make it 600k or 2 x 350k like richmond? I'm sure even in this climate the contacts the MFC and MCC have surely this type of short term arrangement could be made.

Surely you could have posted in an existing sponsor thread rather than starting a brand new one which has no new information.

Search for previous threads and that is where your answer will be.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
