Could very well be.

Thought read once that he went broke in the mining industry. But i am sure he is onto something else by now.

Certainly hope its the case and he digs deep.

He did a great thing for our club, its just a shame that it ended the way it did.

After the way he was treated last time around I wouldn't blame him for not digging too deep. Apparently, he has made a big financial comeback but whether he's prepared to kick in the $'s is another thing. It's great to have him back and hopefully he will put in the balance of the pledged amount that he was supposed to put in at the time when he was deposed (nearly $300k) but I wouldn't go holding my breath while waiting.

Joseph & Paul are doing the rounds again.

You would have to think that with Stynes networking the way he is, and bringing everyone everyone back to the club, for the club, we have to be in a decent position to turn our club around, with everyone working together.

I wouldn't even suggest it, there's no point, bringing up stuff like that will just inflame a delicate situation. If gutnick does comes back to the club then it must be with a clean slate, all previous issues should be forgotten and will should be solely focused on future relationships.

I remember chatting with Jo at Thursday Training before the 2000 Grand Final. He was so excited! (So was i to be honest after i made the made the ABC TV News with my Prediction)

Jimmy's strength is his networking skills i have no doubt, to all those on here who have been knocking him on threads-Hold Back on that, let's just see how this all pans out. We could still be envied in Victoria in a few years.

A new Gutnick article from the HUN.

The crux of it: "Asked if he was a chance to contribute financially again, Gutnick said: "It's possible . . . it's possible.""

If Jimmy can lure peole like Gutnick back to the fold who want to contribute, well he is worth his weight in Gold. Stynes the mediator. Just what this club needs. I hope he comes back anyway because he got melbourne out in the public eye for a few years there. We were rocking. Go Jim get all the old boards together. We are all Demons.

Joe should be welcomed back for the time and commitment he put into the club in the past. The fact that much of the excitement is because people think he will put in more money is distasteful in the extreme.

I hope I did not convey that sentiment in my post (if I did it was unintentional), I merely wanted to mention the crux of the article - I agree as a Melbourne man he should be welcomed back at the club irrespective.

The most pleasing sentiment from that artical is that of unity.

This appears to be a prudent objective of Jimmy's and one he seems to getting some traction on.

To survive we must put the all demons of the past to bed and forge a new era as a strong and united club.

Credit goes not just to Jimmy but to all who are putting their differences aside and coming back into the fold.

United we stand devided we fall!

A big welcome back to Gutnick.... no mention of Szondy, that's also good news.

Szondy is in the photo in today's sun with Spencer, Reid, Gardner, Gutnick and Jimmy. He is the only one not smiling and he looks sheepish.

Jimma's just wanting to unite all of Melbourne via inviting past presidents so hopefully what has happened in the past can be cast aside to show that all in sundry are behind the one thing we all and the past presidents have in common. That they all follow and want to support the Melbourne Football Club. Good on Jimma for "doing so".

while it would be great if joe gutnick was able to support the club financially, i hope we do not ask. he has already contributed more personally than anyone else.

if he decides to dig in again i hope we suggest he does it a bit different:

-gets his company to sponsor the club, rather than just donating.

-uses his contacts to help organise a large sponsorship from another company

-if he insists on putting his own money in, we should ask him to become a player sponsor or join one of the coterie groups, rather than just donate money.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
