Second Major Sponsor is...

Just wondering who the second major sponsor shall be for the Melbourne Football Club and when it will be announced?

Anybody have a clue on who it may be and when? :blink:

 
 

SCHLOSSGOLD!!!

i can dream!


Whoever the new (2nd Stage) sponsor will be, will have synergy with our community program work. J Stynes has had a lot to do with this.

When the announcement is made, the media will focus on the good work of Jimmy previously, in the community and what we, as a footy club, will do in the community, long term.

Jimmy and others, who shall remain nameless on this forum, ought be congratulated for their community based and long sighted "marketing" aims, in this respect.

In marketing terms, it is called re-positioning.

GO Demons!!!!

Mars!

While they wait for the introduction of the Tassie team. They can co-sponsor the Dee's.

 
...

that post would imply that the deal is essentially done and is just getting the t's crossed and i's dotted. is that the case?

A little of the topic however: Did anyone notice the ad in todays age for "Run Melborne" Fun run (Sports Section Page 11 under Sports Scoreboard) ?

The predominant Red and Blue colours for the ad.

It was pitched to the MFC as an afterthought after attending the "Demon Summit" that the club should try and convince companies (and events) where possible with Melbourne in their name to adopt the Red and Blue colours.Therefore making the Red and Blue colours becoming synonymous with the City of Melbourne over time and vice versa.

Maybe this was the first step?


I don't know who the other sponsor will be, but in Caro's article from last week about Hankook I'm sure she said the leading contender was a company that isn't in the gambling industry. Which clearly narrows the field down. :P

The MFC rejected Chang Beer

I think the talk in parliament at the moment is trying to ban alcohol sponsorships on TV during sports programs, so this could be one reason why we rejected it, just to avoid any future issues, but I could be completely wrong

If it is going to be a Beer, at least make it a decent beer, i don't want to have to drink Tooheys Red for three years.

Interesting, are Hankook uping the stakes here or another company with ties to Hankook.

Wonder if it will be leaked tonight, the almighty Hutchy is on (yes, sarcasm is here).

Look forward to hearing this hankook1, thanks for the teaser :P


You'll know tomorrow.

And none of the guesses or suggestions in this thread are right.

I've said it once, and I say it again:

You are the man Hankook.

Plus you sell the best tyres in Australia champ!

Interesting, are Hankook uping the stakes here or another company with ties to Hankook.

I can think of 2 reasons why almighty Hankook would know.

Maybe they are upping the ante, but more realistically, if i were a company sharing duel major sponsorship of a team, i would want to know who the other sponsor is. I eagerly await the next 24 hours.

I will then be able to go to the demon shop and get the home guernsey as well as the white away strip.

Ps. I too will be heading for a Hankook outlet when i get my new car in a couple of months!!!

You'll know tomorrow.

And none of the guesses or suggestions in this thread are right.just have to

TAC is my guess!

Sony, JB HI FI, Coles Myer, Commonwealth Bank, TPG?, any bank or insurance company (QBE), ALDI?

I will just have too wait!

ALDI could get alot of value on the back of our jumper. I hav'nt noticed them involved in sponsorship with any sport.


It's not us! And all I'll say is it's a company that doesn't have a big profile in Oz as yet but you can all use their products.

I knew it.

A new brand of toilet paper manufactured in the Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan by members of a collective farm related to and introduced to Cameron Schwab by Borat, our magnificent #27 ticket holder.

Sounds bloody good, can't wait to find out who it is. I'm guessing articles should come out breaking the news around midnight tonight maybe?

From your sources hankook1 have you been told it will be announced tomorrow?

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
