NB is basically lower end 

old farts gear

From this "old fart", I am grateful for the money they put into the club .............. or should we give it back, because they are "basically lower end"?

Spot on from another "old Fart"

Lets appreciate NB.  Being an international gives us some assurance. Unlike the 6 AFL clubs who have BLK as their sponsor/supplier - which just went into liquidation 'external administration'.

Its not long ago we had no sponsors. If people  dont like NB products don't buy them. I applaud them for putting money into and backing our club when it was in it's knees.

Edit:  @Delusional demon 82 re your early post - BLK going into liquidation helps explains why the Bulldogs switched to ASIC...and possibly a better sponsorship offer.

New Balance sucks, the CEO and board are big Trump supporters

They don't support Trump, they support the changing of the current trade agreement which all candidates had as one of their policies. it was completely taken out of context by fear-mongering Americans looking for any excuse to keep this Trump-bashing vehicle kicking for a while longer.

 

sorry for the off topic i just felt it was worth pointing out.

From another Old Fart  i went out and brought three bloody pairs of puma down in Melb Myer without thinking and they are not what they were cracked up to be.

Maybe we could form an Old Farts  Suporters Group

I'll nominate for President

everyone must wear NB gear to meetings

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
