Ok since many of you are despondently watching the clock and waiting for the morrow I thought maybe another subject to distract your thoughts might help.

That Wir Lieben Autos mob are off and going. So who is next cab off the rank. This time round I've heard nothing, nada. Seems our ship is mighty tight these days with hardly a skerrick of juicy rumour able to find its way out....... or can it ?

Melbourne ( the MFC ) has been thrown a mighty big life buoy. Seriously backed in by the league itself we are just about going to land a whole school of fish. ( sorry there's that other subject ...dang :rolleyes: ) The club will get a lot of attention for the rest of this and a lot of next year at least.

Any company seeking bang for buck would be hard pressed to look past us.

who will it be ?

anyone heard anything ?

Yes. Maybe there will be an announcement tonight at the B&F?

I don't think I can stomach another purely speculative thread.

I think I will just wait for the official signing. (hopefully sooner rather than later)

I heard our new sponsor is the AFL to the tune of 2.7 mill. A one year deal.

Paid in advance.

I think the Daily Planet Gentlemen's Club Kittens & Dan Murphy should jump on board.

There is going to be a lot of celebrating going on from tomorrow onwards.

Hopefully it continues infinitum...13,14,15.....16....

Apparently Yellow Pages are about to embark on a new ad campaign, reviving the catch phrase; "not happy Jan" (perhaps substitute; not happy Jack"). Seems appropriate to me.

Gotta love any thread with the tag "have no idea".

Most accurate tag on Demonland ever.

youd have preferred ?

The thread is speculative for it has to be otherwise it would be announcing something and that would be definitive.

Glad to see you offered to add quality to the subject . Some, myself included , have an interest in who might be prepared to put their money down.

Given the flurry of activity and the occasion of tonight i thought it worthy of discussion .

Often some hear whispers or indeed have inroads . That i have neither on this occasion is irrelevant to the subject.

Do you know anything ?

Didn't some one say Range Rover was a big chance?

I also heard Falls Creak and Mount Hotham are making a strong bid for shorts sponsorship.

people laugh at the notion of LR. but they are ramping up their pr and the membership of the MFC isn't such a bad place to sell your wares.

Given their line up of models its not such a daft idea. (funny though )

Sargent Shultz style - I know nothing.

I just thought it was a funny tag, given a lot of the posts recently have been Judd's Grandma-esque.

Was not meant as a personal jab but rather a jab at our collective habit for speculation.

edit - spelling

I heard Range Rover and a Singapore campaign - whether it's Singapore Airlines or a tourism campaign I don't know. Also Priceline.

Range Rover would be good, being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Motors, India, it'd give us a chance to make a potentially lucrative sub-continental connection.

Were we not the medias b-arch this year - especially the first 6 months of it? Lots of publicity? Lots of "bang for buck"?

Did a lot of good for Opel.

Opel from my learnings had a very squirrelly idea ( or none ) re this market. You dont dabbled toes for 2 years and expect miracles. Some GMH mates were wondering from day 1., thought them daft.

It wasnt us...lol....definitely them !!

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
