Why cant this club stay away fro m this type of  Bu$%*hit  promotion  Adds nothing to the club and diverts attention

Concentrate on Playing and training for the next Game

Carlton will not be easy and we need to put 100 % effort in to beat them

Yeh too right. The last thing our sponsers and club want is exposure to a national audience on the highest rating show on TV. 

Fools. PJ is really losing his touch.

I don’t care for all you wet blankets. I love Masterchef and I love Melbourne.

I can’t wait to watch it tonight to the subtle background groans of my boyfriend who thinks everything I watch on tv is garbage.

Haha oh Jack. There’s always one.

I’d love to know how this is a ‘diversion’. 

Mass exposure to an audience that otherwise wouldn’t see the MFC, great work by the club.

If we lose this week though it will definitely be down to that over cooked steak 4 months ago...

I was going to apply for Masterchef one year but then I realised I didn’t have a sad backstory so I didn’t see the point.

I don't see it as a distraction. It's all about exposure. I'm sure our sponsors love it. If you don't want to have play games in the NT then we need to build our brand. Winning games and success is one part. Exposure to a mass audience in other forms of media is another.

This was filmed so long ago we’re still promoting the old sponsors 

?

Would anyone object to us spending the NT money on hiring a special effects team to CGI the Zurich logo over the AHG logo?

Tend to agree. I'm one of those old fashioned types that prefer to see our players as footballers not entertainers.

To use a Masterchef idiom:  they are the garnish and not the hero of the dish.  They wander in, scoff some grub, and Jonesy says “tastes good, dunnit?”  Rest of the show is about short pockets angry George, look away and I’ll eat you Matt and totally irrelevant Gary yelling at the poor bastards, and some cooking in between watching people rush around for no reason and recaps.

This will be the show that reveals how Jack Watts lost the trust of his teammates. First he asks if there is a sommelier on set. Then, speaking of the pea soup, that he was expecting an element of surprise, but was let down by its pervading ordinariness. Of the steak and chips, that it was abstract but rarely obvious, and used too much tomato sauce. Of the bread and butter pudding, that it was emotionally complex with a hint of eroticism, but ultimately let down the taster by not having any real link to the the active perception it is signifying.

Footballers will tolerate a lot, but not that.

Gee people chill, it's just a challenge on a cooking show. Its a challenge at the mcg. So of course they would get us. I bet if they got the pies people would be on here saying why didn't they get us. It's our ground. 

Im a tad surprised they didn't get Richmond,  but as it was filmed last yr they were busy with finals.  Anyway just enjoy it.

So you don’t regard football as entertainment, but rather as a metaphor for life’s struggles?

Just watched 2 minutes of this show.Horrible.Have not watched it before.Is it George Caloumbaris yelling at contestants? Why?Because it’s a bullying work environment.I was a TAFE teacher and 30 years ago l had a student retraining to get of cooking because of the bulling workplace he was in .

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    The Demons were blown out of the water and were absolutely embarrassing against the Fremantle Dockers in Alice Springs ultimately going down by 92 points and getting bundled out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.
