MELBOURNE is pleased to announce Melbourne Airport Parking as an official partner. 

The new partnership will provide players and staff access to ‘at terminal’ and valet parking, reducing travel times for interstate games.

That Carpark organization are absolute crimminals. I have just spent time at the Airport over the last 3 days. 

 

HIGHWAY ROBBERY is what they charge. 

AND the sole reason that a rail link has not been built

Sorry but i despise that Carpark!!!!

Back on my day the carpark was free and a kid would be there selling homemade lemonade for a penny!

We use to play outside and drank water from a hose if we got hot!

We knew it was time to go home when the sun went down!

Kids and carparks have no respect these days!

We get to park there, but then have to wait 60 minutes for transfer to the terminal.

Once the bus arrives, though, it's very smooth, quick and direct.

Unfortunately, however, you'll miss your plane.

It's perfect for MFC.

That carpark is literally highway robbery

years ago I was on the fringe of one of the consortia looking at buying the airport.

The carpark was the main revenue earner then and probably still is despite the increase in retail tenancies.

They stuffed the whole airport when they built the first carpark and the hotel. If they had moved it back say 50-100 metres they would not have many of the bottleneck problems they now have.

Fancy having a departures lane with a pedestrian crossing from the car park ... engineering at its best.

They are reporting that the long term was already full for Easter this morning.  Incredible!  Why they need to sponsor us is beyond me.  But thanks!

I find it very strange that organisations like this sponsor. What do they get out of it? 

Sydney Airport sponsor the GWS women's team. Why? If I'm going to Sydney I will go to the airport. There isn't any competition if I choose to fly.

they are competing with taxis , uber etc not to mention the many alternative parking services.

There is a fine balance between the price of parking and the point when people opt for an alternate. As I mentioned earlier the airport car park is a serious money making concern.

Might be an idea that the powers that be at the MFC get onto Megellan global trust, they have pulled their sponsorship at Cricket Australia. 

I think we will soon hear that the club has signed another sponsor who ties in well with the name of our B&F trophy!

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
