I would have thought this week would have been ideal timing. We are playing Collingwood on Saturday night with TV coverage only 4 or 5 games are covered this week, followed by Hawthorn. If a sponser wanted to get exposure this would be the week to kick it off.

Aaah Conflusios say!

Hoo da fluk ar Corringwood and a Horforn.

Ah supot da Dwagons.

I have brainwashed the hell out of them. Sometimes it did include fudging the scores a little bit when I would get home from the G. A 6 year old and a 2 year old don't really understand rebuilding pha

I was on an Emirates 777 last night, they must have the narrowest asile's of any aircraft I have been on.

And I should know I spend hours chasing my Grand daughter up and down.

It essentially comes down to the carrier.

Boeing regards the typical cabin layout as 9 abreast seating (3-3-3 formation or 2-5-2 formation) in economy class for the 777 family but many carriers like to cram 'em in with 10 (3-4-3 formation) - including Emirates.

This is where I seem to disagree with most who are posting on here. I do not think it is impatient to expect to have a FOJ sponsor on board for the start of competitive games.

I think every other club in the league has one, we do not, and it is poor management by the club to be heading into March without it. I do not know a professional team in any code in the land that has had to start a year playing competitive televised games without a sponsor on the prime position of the uniform.

It could be we are trying to pull of a major chinese sponsor and its worth waiting to get a foot in a market like that. This will have fans like you scratching your head at what to hate today

Correct and I think the seats are narrower as well.

Cam Schwab said it would be settled before the commencement of the season.

I guess that means up to 3 more weeks of sweating beads for those on tender hooks.

The Demon Shop told me that Cam is waiting for this thread to hit one thousand posts before any announcement will be made.

I have just arrived at the mfc offices for a market research session and while sitting in an empty waiting area who should be walking out but one cam schwab. Do you think I had the aggots to ask when an announcement would be made? No. Hutchy I am not. He looked relaxed though and pleased to see him at it after 7pm

I got a call today asking me if I would like to participate in one of those next Monday evening but politely declined, would be good if you would share a bit about it when you finish I might reconsider if it's worthwhile.

Must have been that highly unprofessional exhibition game that we played in China that helped seal the deal .

Thank god we didn't waste money trying to keep little ignorant bogans from the obesity belt of the outer east at our club .

Great news again -love it . Just hope we can get a few free flights to Perth out of them as well .Could save us big bucks .

As it is with avatars, my mind went directly to James Van Der Beek being at the club.

And it made me sad.

It was a bit of fun. Mainly just talking about why we were members and what it means. Talking about footy for two hours which comes easy for me. Would have done it for free but a Coles Myer gift card didn't suck. 7 other crazy dees fans to banter with. If you have the time it's not the worst thing you could do. A good experience to sit in the club board room and just imagine some of the discussions that would have taken place in there.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
