The silence from the club to members is poor. I  even asked and got no reply.

Maybe they didn't understand the question...

There will come a time where holding out for a bigger offer in the hope that getting top market value is worth waiting a little longer for, will only last a few more weeks before that idea becomes untenable. There will come a point where accepting a smaller deal sooner will make more sense than accepting a bigger deal later - if that makes sense...

Can we just put a panel on the back that just reads 'Your business here' until we get a sponsor?

Or we could go with "I'm with stupid -->".

Although that would look good when we play a man-on-man game but perhaps not so good with a zone defence.

Seriously what do you want from the club?

1. We don't have a sponsor because.........

2. Our price is too high

3. No one wants to sponsor us

4. We dont want to lower our price to set a low benchmark for future

5. We are in deep discussions and nearly there.

Get over yourself.

We don't have one. Do you think the club are trying to get one? Do you want the club to issue a press release every time we make a phone call to potential sponsor?

I'd be guessing you don't work in the commercial world becasue you sure as hell have little idea about how it works.

7 News reporting bulldogs have signed Mercedes as their back of jumper sponsor. 

Did we potentially lose out to them?

We have AHG as our main sponsor. I wouldn't have thought you would have 2 sponsors from the same industry.

What ever Mr. High and mighty.

What I would like from time to time for the club to speak to its members and give them and insight into the club and what is going on. Sorry for caring. I think major going ons like lack of a major sponsor which could potentially mean a end of year loss would be something the club should be proactive about. I get that information from Bolton.

just noticed china southern on the collar on adelaide coach collars...we have IG on our coach collars. china southern came on board as a sponsor a couple years ago - have we shafted them? or are they diversifying their sponsorships. have we missed the opportunity to upgrade them to a jumper?

Haven't shafted them

They diversified.

Check club website and observe sponsors on background  at pressers.

Thought it was mentioned that the one we were courting was a beer company?

How about we go left field and approach the Australian Beef Industry. An industry body more likely to have resources than an individual company.

Red and blue are  comparable colours. Paler diet was key last season is it still in favour.

Could provide plenty of crossover with cooking shows and references.

Might endear us to the NT citizens involved in the industry.

Also could be a handy international reference if we play in China.

Even as an introductory reduced rate for rest of season could have mutually beneficial community appeal.

Problem is that if we go in that direction someone on this board will have a beef with that idea.

You're right.

There's too much bull involved.

They are not exactly stampeding in to the marketing office.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    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

    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
