On the point of sponsorship, I seem to recall that Schwab's critics were into him from day one when he arrived in the early days of the global financial crisis and we had no sponsors and no takers due to the poor economic outlook at the time. Given this, the team at Melbourne performed particularly well and worked hard in difficult conditions. Earlier this year, I was speaking to one of the people involved in attracting sponsors and he outlined the difficulties they encountered. This included some instances of roadblocks put in their way by the negativity surrounding the club at various times which made their job considerably more difficult.

I said this earlier WJ.

This is probably the hardest sales job in Melbourne right now.

A few on here make me laugh they must think finding a $million sponsor for the worst AFL club is easy.

Love to see a few give it a try.

5 years ago I was an assoc. dir for a Multi national company.

based in victoria.

I tried to persuade them to sponsor the dees in some way.

They did their due diligence and responded.

They didn't think that the Melbourne FC was the type we would want to associate our brand with..

I retired from the company 6 months later.

No big deal everyone is happy

I need a new car so can I place my order for a major car company as the MFC 2014 major sponsor?

Also planning an overseas trip as well so a travel agency will also be ideal for me.

Currently looking at solar energy, building maintenance, computer equipment, home entertainment systems etc.

So any good sponsors discounts would be appreciated, plus the MFC needs the cash.

If you ever need to hire a car don't forget about Hertz - they do a good deal (15% off if within Australia)

Indeed this is a great deal.

Pity I live in a Town without any car rental companies.

If this happened while Schwab was running the show there would be hell to pay.

No worries for Teflon Jackson and the bosses at the AFL. ...

When does accountability start?

It's the 17th of October.

I heard that both Range Rover and Mt Buller were looking at sponsorship deals with the MFC...I know it may sound like a stereotypical joke..but i heard that both are legitimate potential sponsors.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
