Someone posted this on BF the other day, I think it looks much better than what we are running with atm. However, given the time we have had to get the sponsors on the jumper, I would not be surprised

Decent logo too.

Wonder what's happened to our Asian connection?

Terrific effort by Opel if they have got on board.

In all seriousness, if there was anything there and it was progressing slowly, the nature of the Polis debacle may have had an adverse effect on negotiations.

i thought Opel in Germany had gone bust...similar to SAAB.

But there you go....they must have been saved...i know an entire city depends on them similar to Geelong and Ford.

From wiki:

Adam Opel AG (Opel) is a German automobile company founded by Adam Opel in 1862.[3] Opel has been building automobiles since 1899, and became an Aktiengesellschaft in 1929. The company is headquartered in Rüsselsheim, Germany. It became a majority-stake subsidiary of the General Motors Corporation in 1929 and has been a wholly owned subsidiary since 1931.

In 2010, Opel announced that it will invest around €11 billion in the next five years.[4] One billion of that is designated solely for the development of innovative and fuel-saving engines and transmissions.

The sell the Astra under the Opel brand in USA for a few years...

I've never seen an Opel car on Australian roads.

Does this mean they're going to start marketing their vehicles here?

They already do....it's called a Commodore!!

It's an interesting sponsor for the club to get given that they don't produce a car here yet and a number of their popular cars in Europe (eg. the Astra) are already sold under the Holden badge.

Nonetheless, it's money for the club and some more good press which doesn't hurt!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
