Was thinking the same DC... wonder if each team will get a brand.

Ruski and Smirnoff self select for GWS and perhaps Port Ellen for Port (does sound like a great drop ... 35 year old malt from the Isle of Islay and a price to match.)

Of course it's great that we didn't get Tanqueray !!

Don’t know how the Johnnie Walker blurb “keep walking” would relate to us. Something perhaps Hawks fans might have thrown our way after the game on Sunday.

Only demons supporters would lament the fact their new sponsor produced blended whisky rather than single malt.  Hilarious.

These posts are making me thirsty.

[chook fowler 19,774]

i thought gluhwein was demon supporters beverage of choice

[DaveyDee 421]

4th new sponsor in a month - I will drink to that and yes it will be Johnny Walker. Geez we are becoming multi-cultural Swiss, Scottish, Japanese & Australian. 

Go Dees

Melbourne - Getting rid of gamblers and introducing alcoholics???

Good idea !!! Alcoholics are much more trustworthy than gamblers. 

[deebug 1,754]

Yes please, love me some Johnny Walker.

So does this mean those of us who are over 18 get a free bottle every time we lose?

[Mazer Rackham 14,972]

Oh Teacher's I need you like a little child
You got something in you to drive a Dees fan wild
You give me consolation from the Melbourne blues
Help me admit, come out and say
Teacher's I, Teacher's I, Teacher's I, Teacher's I need you

[leave it to deever 17,618]

 An anti depressant sponserhip would be handy.

Lot cheaper than the Blue. 

Blue is a beautiful $50 shot...

[ding 5,126]

Nothing wrong with Johnnie Green either.

All its peppery loveliness...... Masks the crap feeling of defeat very well.

Up from Blue?

[Maxwell Edison MD 143]

Great news, can't help thinking Stones Mac may be a more appropriate drop for us at the moment though.

If you are going to spend approx $200 on a bottle of JW blue I would highly recommend getting a non blended whiskey for the same price, it will be much better. Same company sells Oban, lagavulin and delwhinnie

But thanks for the $$$ JW

From the article

"Johnnie Walker will also be a partner of the AFL’s founding and arguably most prestigious club, the seminal Melbourne Demons  as well as a proud sponsor of Seven’s Friday night’s appointment viewing TV broadcast of the AFL."

Well, they have covered their bases given that we don't get the chance on a Friday night game!

But I must say I read this while having a neat green. Tasty.

In recent times they added to it, to make it "Joy will take you further -- Keep walking"

Hopefully, the joy of finding that winning feeling, and walking right into the finals!

Must admit to having a couple of nips of Black Label before dinner this evening.  (A step up from my usual tipple of the cheap, and some would say nasty, tipple of 1495...!)

the black i like, and the green and the gold and the platinum... the red'll do in an emergency 

not a fan of the double black and unfortunately never had a crack at the Blue... now i have a reason to get a bottle!
