    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 !!

    If teams are going to be sponsored by their alcoholic drink of choice, Collingwood's sponsor would be somewhat misleading.

    After all Brut aftershave is usually used for an alternative purpose but they could at least use it as an angle to also score a deal with Coca-Cola Amatil.

    so that would be jw blue for the northern standers and jw red for the plebs. dee_luded would be dee_lighted

    I think many on here are missing the point. They are an event sponsor so what is our B&F Award called The Keith “Bluey” Truscott Memorial Trophy.

    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.

    I'm going to read something into this story that I probably shouldn't. If JW is going to be a proud sponsor of both the Friday night TV broadcast and of the MFC, does this mean the AFL has given the club and the sponsor an in principle commitment for more Friday night games in 2019?

    There were some terrible "popular" drinks in the 70's.

    FMD, I cringe at the thought of some of the [censored] I used to drink.

    You should give up the [censored] Ethan ( difficult for a dees supporter I realize) but didn't you also have a near death experience with some rare cobra juice?

    No, you were safe. When they want to kill you they put polonium in your tea, or novichok on your doorknob.

    Ouzo and Pernod are much the same yet one is thought sophisticated and the other .... ??

    Fascinating the run on gin these days... it's just grain spirit with flavouring

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
