SPONSORSHIP (Junk Foods vs Healthy Foods)

Featured Replies

Posted

Seeing that most Junk Food companies are heavily represented in the AFL, (Maccers, KFC, Subway, Hungry Jacks, and now Mission), the MFC should perhaps go for a healthier food option as a sponsor.

I'm sure that if they approached the Minister of the Department of Agriculture, they should surely be able to make a compelling case that would attract serious $'s to promote FRESH FRUIT and VEGETABLES.

The state Government does sweet FA to promote FRESH FRUIT and VEGETABLES, and believe it or not this industry usually booms in times of recession.

It would have a positive affect on the general population who already are aware of the benefits of FRESH FRUIT and VEGETABLES.

Being in the industry I would welcome it (promotion) with open arms, and what better way to promote it than through a SPONSORSHIP.

I'd call that a plum sponsorship that would help pay quite a few celeries!

Thats a peach of an idea...who's going to dangle the carrot?

 

Don't the Demons still have a minor sponsorship deal with 'Just Fruit'?

They supply boxes of fruit to offices and things like that - I was udner the impression that they were going to be a handy part of the kids programs in Casey, I know the school groups which toured the stands were given fruit for a snack, I asume something like that will carry on.

The fruit supplied in that instance was done so buy a number of wholesalers (including my company) who support the Demons. As for Just Fruit, unfortunately they are no longer in business.

Back to the sponsorship situation, wholesalers and retailors are not big enough to be able to help the MFC in the dollar terms that are require ($Millions). Apart from the major chains (Coles and Safeway) most busineses are small to medium in size. The Government on the other hand has plenty and promoting HEALTH would definatley get an EAR.

Definately worth a try!

i like the idea of having a sports drink as a smaller type sponsor, and therfore the players can get the perks. something like musachi protein drinks or something like that.

For a major sponsor we should be talking to jetstar or qantas or something like that and that we can save on road trips etc


the sponsorship of the australian cricket team by kfc in my eyes is a disgrace....

refrred to as the official restaurant of australian cricket..

their role models eating and drinking this cr@p is all okay too!!

I like the Bill Hicks policy on this

Do a commercial, you're off the artistic roll call, every word you say is suspect, you're a corporate [censored] and eh, end of story.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
