On behalf of demonland, i would like to give a BIGGG thankyou to Andrew Mamonitis!!!

Hear, hear...

This is not just a great moment for the club but IMO this is just a great story. A passionate supporter asks himself not what the club can do for him but what he can do for his club - what a great bloke. If this doesn't get the red and blue army stirring then nothing will. Well done to Jimmy and the club and all our valued sponsors as well.

Great to have Kaspersky on board as joint major partner. Met some of their guys at the launch today and they are genuinely excited to be part of the MFC - great story about how it all came about, should be in the papers tomorrow - literally called the membership hotline and asked to speak to someone about sponsoring the club!

Saw some mock ups of the jumper/merchandise today and it looks pretty bloody good if you ask me. Should be available for sale end of April I believe.

As for the details - our sponsorship is mainly signage (front of jumper, match ball, goalposts etc) with not much corporate - theirs is more of a mix plus they sponsor the coaches apparel.

All in all a great result - now we can get on with winning some football matches!

I am really excited about the sponsorship and thank Kaspersky so much. But do you think Kaspersky should have a quiet word to their logo designer? :(

I actually really like the logo.... its different.... unique

Fantastic news to wake up to.......

And I will join the chorus of folk in congratulating Jim, Cameron and all those involved in signing this deal.

Not to mention Andrew Mamonitis, who did what all members want to be able to do, and that is to help secure the future of our beloved club any way they can.

It has been a long time since we have been able to look into the future positively, but hopefully now we can.

Well done to everyone on a very successful (and relatively lucrative) announcement!!!

I'd like to point out that its really quite clever advertising considering our backline looks to be a strength.

I'd pit our backline against most others in the AFL

We are hopeful of having the signage deal done in the next few days 1858, at both the G and the Dome. Confident we will be there up for round 1!

I think the logo is great. It stands out from the rest and really catches your eye.

Well lets put it this way... It looks alot better than the Mission Foods logo...

Excellent stuff, in my mind this is good for MFC as well as Hankook. As the MFC/Hankook association grows over the next couple of years I am hoping that when people see your venue signage that they also think of MFC and that we build a bigger presence - especially at the MCG (reverse advertising was my initial thought). Given Hankook have built up a good association with footy (in my mind anyway) over the years with their bold venue signage anything is possible - who knows. Obviously I wish all the best to Hankook on getting a good return on their advertising investments both at the footy venues as well as with the Dees in any case.

The Kaspersky logo is pretty good for logo purposes - it's distinct, it looks very much web/technology style, so it's on message, and it's just odd enough to be memorable.

I imagine it's original context would have been online, where it would suit quite nicely.

The colours are also kind of similar to the corporate colours for the place I work... I wonder if there's any belly-dancing functions planned soon?

The Stynes/Cameron duo is absolute gold.

And as far as the footy goes, I don't think the Bailey/Connolly duo will be too shabby either.

Onwards and upwards.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
