Who would you like to sponsor the club?

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.

    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.

    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".

    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.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
