A little birdie just told me that the rectangular stadium sponsorship deal has been struck with AAMI

Hopefully this will change our luck!

Just doesn't sound right, dislike. Why would AAMI bother sponsoring stuff in Melbourne? Their brand here is tainted by the filth of the West.

how will it change our luck exactly ?

I am confused.

MFC is moving to the rectangular stadium (isn't this already locked in)?

AAMI is sponsoring the rectangular stadium (in which case who cares)?

MFC has locked in a new sponsorship with AAMI specific to our rectangular stadium facilities / events?

IF this "IS" the case, then this is good. prefer to see something concrete than speculation.

besides, the initial opening post did not refer to the club exactly, did it ?

I hope we get a slice of this pie, we will be a significant proportion of the media hits when the stadium is mentioned.

A little birdie told you???

It's in the Herald-Sun - Link

To clarify, the Club won't get any of this cash. We don't own the stadium, it's owned by the MOPT who also own Hisense Arena & Rod Laver Arena. We are just tenants.

PS. I believe the 'luck has changed' quip might be referring to the "Lucky you're with AAMI" jingle.

This isn't a rumour. It's in both papers today, and was announced officially as well by the minister.

It's AAMI Park.

Why would AAMI gives us any money. The sponsorship of the stadium has nothing to do with us. Does anyone know when we move In? I think the official opening Is the 7th of May for a rugby game.

Why is it we are never mentioned as tennants in articles about the stadium?

I am beginning to wonder if we are even going to train there.

Probably because we're not a competing tenant as such. We'll be using the facilities within the stadium, and the oval adjacent but obviously we won't use the actual playing surface there at any point.

I like it better as the "Thunderdome" as stated in the Melbourne Storm membership letter!?

AAMI are the shonkyest Insurance Company going around from my experience.

Last dealt with them about 20 years ago-vowed never again.

A shame that Logo will taint our city Precinct, thought it was a beautiful Marriage for Adelaide though!!!!

not sure when we are moving but it is not too far off. We will be training on the ground right next to it which is the one closest to Olympic Blvd (extension of Swan St). The training oval has a newly laid surface and the goal posts have just gone up.

I thought it got pushed back from a March start to May. Hopefully it is soon. We need every little boost we can get right now
