Melbourne's Communication and Online

Featured Replies

The club has announced some staff changes.  http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2017-09-15/jackson-promotes-from-within-club

The existing role is now split into Marketing (directed at new stakeholders) and Communications (directed at existing stakeholders).

The latter involves the promotion of 'Ryan Larkin to general manager of stakeholder relationships and communications'.   “Ryan Larkin has built outstanding relationships in the media and across the club’s key stakeholders in his time at the club.  I know this elevation will help to further grow the club’s ability to provide the very best coverage and communications for our club and supporters, along with nurturing the key relationships that are critical for our club’s success.”

Ryan was heavily involved in responding to the post rnd 23 backlash to the club so I doubt we will have that communication fiasco again.

I applaud PJ in recognising the importance of communication with supporters with a specific general manager position.

Great to see a couple of young guns given responsibilities like this. 

They would be cheaper as well.

Not so, but think that if you wish.

If you promote from within it is usually cheaper than recruiting from the outside.

but if you wish to believe otherwise so be it.

I don't just believe so, but never mind. A bit off topic.

Our Development League (Casey) Demons team won a Premiership last weekend and nothing on the Club website! Not nearly good enough! ?

Posted yesterday. No pictures though.

It is an embarrassing short article where they only name one player! Hardly good enough! ☹️

To be fair to the club that is an afl.com.au article.

 I was referring to the quotes by Goodwin:

"Absolutely, we encouraged him to go and explore his options, and to see what other opportunities may be out there," Goodwin told Channel Seven.

I think the communication from Goodwin  to Watts was ‘fuc£<#off’.  Another PR disaster. It is not the WHAT, it is the HOW it is done.

Clearly that was a euphemism for [censored] off Jack!

BS speculation again. Give it a rest.

Watts was told home truths. That he was performing below that which is expected of a 9 year 150 game player. He was in a rut and might be better off exploring his opportunities at another club.

He explored those and there was one taker with a pick at 31.

What did you want to do differently oh great list management genius?

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
