Its great news that Webjet is on board.

The way its come about with the information released to date raises some issues.

If Schwab is responsible for this then he deserves congratulations.

CS tweeted last night the following :

"Timing can be everything. Had discussions with Webjet last year but weren't considering sponsorship. Window opened. Deal done in 24 hrs. "

I think the Link to Eddie can be put to bed.

Yes. And the timing in this instance (due to EW debacle) has given Webjet so much more exposure than would normally be expected.

Credit where credit is due> If the CEO has to take responsibility for not securing a sponsor, he gets to take to take the credit and kudos when one is secured.

Thats not true. He got a "free kick" when a supporter introduced Kaspersky. If the sponsor win reflects the efforts of the CEO then he should be congratulated.

Thanks. On the basis well done CS.

Pity its a 1+2 yr contract and not a full 3 years. Hope they renew.

The 21st of March 2011 saw John Guscic take over as Managing Director, while former Managing Director and founder David Clarke assumed the role of Non Executive Chairman.[8]

David Clarke is a pretty common name.

I certainly hope it's not Bill Farrow's mate from Pyramid,whose ban from running a business would be well behind him now.There was a Geelong connection mentioned in another post.

This is why the EW fiasco was never really going to harm the club long term as I posted when it happened. The publicity gained from the club doing the "right" thing at earliest oportunity won us a lot of good publicity. This has paved the way for a sweet publicity ride for the new sponsor full of good cheer, backslapping and well dones.

Funnily enough, this will end up being good for the club.

Its not the same David Clarke of Geelong/Pyramid fame. But its a common name.

Suppose its up to us now - our destiny is in our own hands. If we all as a club contribute in a positive manner they will renew. I'm pretty confident sponsors judge the club and not base their decisions on match day results.

Everything you now put in a public domain can now be judged.

Balls in our court so to speak.

Has anyone got a photo of what the jumper looked like from TFS? Interested to see the logo on the jumper.

It was the Reach logo jumper with a Webjet logo sticker over the top of it.

They'd be stickers Webjet already had made up for another purpose and subsequently weren't an accurate indication of the size or colour.

Jesus, how about we just take the 1 piece of good news we've had in well over a month and breath a collective sigh of relief

Pity this

Hope that

Good job Cam :thumbsup:

While it's not a big drama, there's definitely room for improvement in the appearance of the logo. It'll take a bit of getting used to otherwise...

Agree. I was thinking of some of the off field issues in the past 12 months more than the on field matters.

I think the Webjet deal represents an opportunity for MFC rather than a ringing endorsement.

We need to make this a winner for us!

I cannot believe that Energy Watch are still sending emails to my home account!!!

A company that only gives a P.O Box....The nerve of this sham...

I would have thought the caravan would have packed up by now...Time for a new scam...

So will we have jumpers done for tomorrows game? I presume not. So will we have stickers or patches sewn on?

This all reminds me of the years we had Pioneer Homes and Snowy Mountain debacle

What is market value RR? I'm talking real cash, not something some angry midget promised that was never there.

So B59, now that the FoJ sponsorship has been announced, and it would be safe to assume that it's not $1.9m or more, does that mean you owe me a beer?

While I'm sure you won't be getting the wallet out due to the fact that the amount hasn't been published, I'd think that if it was equal to or greater than Energy Watch, as you believed it should be, then I think the Club would've been giving us a ball park figure, especially considering the past month we've had to deal with.

Smartest thing you have said since posting Striker (no disrespect to anything else you have said)! You'll love it.

Billy ..I'll quite happily buy you a beer , but surely I dont owe you one.

Given that the BOJ is currently paying zilch. its hard to say otherwise. We have something of a stalemate. . Ill buy you a beer none the less. If you contact me pm we can arrange an occasion.

My argumetn re value of FOJ stil lstands..It must beowrth surely more than BOJ. . As alluded by myself given the change of circumstance it isnt a backward thing but an opportunity :).So far so good :)

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
