About $500K a year according to my sources within the club.

This is, I believe, the fastest growing airline in the world. I real coup.

Good $$$$ for a third tier sponsor.

While as usual we don't know the details, on the face of it you'd have to give CS some credit for the new deal which PJ has finalised regardless of the Energywatch fiasco.

I have had a lot of dealings with big companies in Asia, particularly Japan, in my work. It takes a long time to get a relationship started. But usually once it is, confidence grows and it gets deep and lasts a long time. One I was involved in is still going after 27 years.

Congratulations on that Sue. You must be pleased.

Anyway, back to the MFC. Full praise to PJ..... CS, not so.

Something Moonshadow has never experienced.

Well done to the club for landing China Southern. I was told when they pulled out of negotiations in early April last year that Cameron Schwab and his team at the club put in almost two years of hard work only to miss out on getting them across the line. My guess is they baulked at signing on during the height of our woes at the start of last season but someone involved from our club persisted and with PJ's authority we succeeded in the end.

Let's hope the team out on the ground matches that persistence.

maybe they are platinum plus?

Platinum plus sponsors appear to be alternating shorts sponsors.

I doubt there's room for a 3rd, as it would decrease the frequency of the other sponsors appearing.

New Age Caravans, as current "platinum sponsors", appear prominently on the coaches' uniforms, as I'd expect CSA to do.

According to a quick twitter search they sold 7 tickets to MH370 including the 2 who had stolen passports. Maybe not the best time to associate ourselves with them but hey 500k sounds good

If we can cultivate the relationship with China Southern Airlines like the Pies have done with Etihad, we would do very well.

The two Airline regions with any real clout.. Middle East and China

if not one, foolish to ignore the other

Good news.

Well done MFC .

I suspect that Colonel Tom Parker may have helped get this deal done.

He is also no doubt responsible for the China trip which saw Max Yawn on Scully.

When that Irish gnome succeeds in destroying Qantas they could be our national carrier.

I wasn't leaving the MFC. The point I was making is that a relationship with these companies can take a long time to start, but can last a long time. Could be great for the MFC.

So probably some praise to CS and maybe more to PJ, but we don't know the details of how it evolved so we can't apportion credit.

Given half a chance they will snap up as much of QF as possible...

Weren't too bad when I flew with them. I spent most of my time trying to tune onto the chick sitting next to me. Inflight meals were pretty limited and was mostly woodchipper chicken (i.e. a chicken thrown into a woodchipper and whatever came out the other side was served).
Good work from the MFC. Hard to proportion praise for this one so it's best to give a blanket 'well done'.

They could be part of the lobby to repeal foreign ownership restrictions in the Qantas Sale Act.

If I remember correctly a few yrs ago didn't we have a major sponsor for the same $$$$ as this one? I think it was either handkook or kasper.

Amazing how things change with a good administration in place.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
