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.

    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.
