MELBOURNE has signed chief executive Peter Jackson to a new deal that will see him remain at the club until at least the end of the 2017 season. ... Jackson inked the new deal at a meeting with Demons

I used to talk to Cameron Schwab at the the footy, and while he undoubtedly left us in a very bad state, I doubt I've met a more passionate MFC person, apart from Jimmy. So yes he [censored] up, we

The good thing is that it tells us that Jackson wants to see it through. He has not taken the opportunity to jump ship. It tells us a lot about the man and the direction of the club.

Reassuring to the club and supporters.

Finals 2016 said the man himself...

Extended the extra year for a flag I reckon.

Wise decision.

what a legend PJ is

Wasnt there talk when he first came to the club he would only be there for a short time, 18 months or so? He must really be loving it and wants to see the fruits of his labour as they blossom

Fantastic news, and not even a sniff of it in the press.

I don't understand... Is this how things are meant to be done?

Well done MFC.

It was on this day (like really) back in 2002 that 'Michael Jackson' famously dangled his infant son from a third story balcony.

How the media overlooked that obvious connection is quite remarkable.

Well done MFC.

The thought that pops into my head when seeing this is, who would i welcome back to the club first..............this muppet or T$? Talk about Sophie's Choice.

Jesus Christ, no Schwab wasn't the best CEO and he had some wacky ideas, but he loves the club and his heart is in the right place.

Absurd and completely disrespectful to compare him to Scully.

It's a matter of time until a Melbourne fan somewhere decides to get a tattoo of this man's face.

It might be me.

Well, maybe just his initials with a love heart around them. I don't want people to think I'm crazy.

Thanks Peter, for what you have done already, and for the confidence that you show in the future by recommitting.

A great day for the club, and once again handled in a very professional leak-proof manner.

Bring on 2016!

Agreed!

I was Schwabs biggest critic for a long time...and knew we couldn't move forward with him at the helm.

But he deserves great kudos for the respect and love he has shown the club by staying silent and keeping his distance.

It takes a big man to do this. He does not deserve any whacks on this forum anymore.

Am delighted PJ has signed up. He believes!!

It is important to sponsors to see PJ stay, especially as Roos will go.

The risk was sponsors would see us as a rookie club again if both of them went next year.

PJ staying gives the continuity sponsors want to see.

PJ is crucial to re-signing AHG etc next year.

In short, he is crucial to our future!

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
