Well i must have missed something that says there is a announcement on at 5:30 at yarra park..

Can someone give me a link.

"AN OPEN invitation for a casual kick-to-kick with Melbourne star Jesse Hogan is part of an innovative approach by the Demons to launch their new logo."

I really like that they have involved Daisy Pearce in this and are getting her name more and more out there. She is a great ambassador for the club and also for women's football. It makes me proud to follow the club that has put so much time and effort into growing the game and getting more women involved.

Couldn't agree more Dom.

For the first time in a long time, it feels like we're ahead of the curve, rather than just playing catch-up.

The TV ratings for this year's game, and the number of women who follow footy in general, all point to a growing market with huge untapped potential.

In the not-too-distant future, other clubs will be clamouring to jump on board and get in on the game; by that time, the MFC will have established a significant presence in the whole caper and will be in a great position to capitalise.

The decision to send Daisy, Dom and Gus to Melbourne Girls Grammar this morning was a stroke of genius by the club imho, and shows they've got an eye on the long-term gains that can be made from promoting / supporting the women's game.

Well if someone had actually put that link up at the start ot would have been helpful. First time i have had access to an internet all day and all i saw was a tweet about a kick to kick. So thanks Stuie for actually providing a link for the first time

I am catching up now reading all the new marketing set up by the club. Not everyone sits on a computer 24/7

Settle down, lad.

It was the tone of your post, you made out like no one knew what they were talking about, when in fact...

Pretty sure when the Demonland Banner for 2016 we'll be able to display both the mens and womens team coaches, captains and players.

Deestroy, not any of the actual players, just my 33 year old one.. they were just crusing. viney took a hanger on some kid's back though, that was pretty good

Well I think it was great. at least we got some coverage on all news services. although poor Jesse im starting to feel sorry for him being asked about his contract. As he said I still have 2 years.

But on another note can I just say how tough our captain is. He has a scar on his neck from surgery and cant get any contact for a few months. Obviously he played with a serious nerve injury and toughed his way through the season. Others would have stopped. Some would say he may have been a bit silly because neck injuries are something that shouldn't be messed with, but you know he loves this club and wants to be out there very single week.

I got down there and had a look. Is it wrong if I had to choose between Viney and Daisy kicking from 35m out to win a Melbourne premiership I'd pick Daisy. She strikes it perfectly every time.

    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
