I saw a link the other day, can't remember if it was facebook or email, but it was for a sponsorship survey from the club. It asked the typical questions around which sponsors you have used in the last year, if you planning on using them in future, are you going to buy a car etc etc etc. 

This was all very boring but the last question raised some interest in me for a few reasons. It was 'who would you like to see as a sponsor of the club'. I am hoping they aren't asking because they are out of ideas and are asking so they can put a case together for a potential sponsor. Although if I was a potential sponsor and the club came and said the fans want it then I may well think they are already on board and therefore there is no reason for the sponsorship. 

Any way I am interested in the answers that would come from this forum to this question. 

My answer was Range Rover. We have traditionally received a ribbing from everyone because we all apparently drive Range Rovers so the brand link is there and we may as well own it, this would also get lots of comedic air time and therefore great publicity for both brands. Both Range Rover and our club are re-emerging good quality premium brands after years in the wilderness being unreliable crap so why not go on the ride together. AHG may have an issue but I think they have Jag/Range Rover dealerships in their network so it could actually be a win win for them.

This would suit me just fine.

 

Maybe we can get Tooheys back on board now that Brent Grgic is long gone... ?

And a seriously big market, even in just Melbourne!

Red Bull. They sponsor all sorts of extreme sports, and the kids love it.

They do have money, and do love to put their name on everything, but I am not sure how they go with being a non-naming sponsor. I can't think of them as a minor sponsor, they tens to own teams or competitions. Gatorade and Coke may have something to say as current sponsors as well, but if red bull cough up enough cash then you can bugger the other two off.

In the garage or as a sponsor

 

Bill Gates.  Plenty of money and a history of charity.

Ha Ha. I put Range Rover too.

We need a recognisable sponsor for the back of jumper. When we signed AHG I had never heard of them before. It's been a great move but I feel we need some form sponsorship that is recognisable on a grander scale!

It would actually be the ideal 'back of jumper sponsor' - "Red Bull gives you wings".

BHP. Red for iron ore and blue for gas!

I think they are preoccupied over at Punt Road DJ.

I said the same - gotta be a known name as sponsor.

The way it's going I'm half expecting my ATM / Aussie ATM to get a go again as per the Power's bad days when it was mates of the media manager who came to the rescue at the last moment.
