At least parts of it were filmed during the cricket season. Covers on the pitch area can be seen.

Marketing is a complex thing. Master Chef may or may not result in memberships or larger viewing audiences. But national exposure and a linking to the "Melbourne" brand can only be a positive. And it only cost a free feed in the off season for the team and a day or 2 of our co-captain's time.

Am terribly sorry it's gone through to the keeper mate

At the end of a good speech always drop the mic and walk away like a boss. For bonus points you can throw in an air jerk as well.

Loved the 69 point smashing of Gold Coast last weekend. Wish I was there at the ground to witness it in the flesh. Looking forward to an even bigger smashing of the woebegone and hapless opponents this weekend.

I'm CEO at White Male Pay Gap Engineering.

We're a small but powerful organisation who believe strongly in inequality and unfairness.

We're now hiring as it happens.

I'm sure it's self explanatory. But are you perchance an expert ?

And the relationship to the performance of the club is described? Showing up on crap like masterbeef does nothing for the club and will not translate to memberships so why do it. You have presumed to have some idea about my view of the club.You obviously have no idea and are presuming a lot

Just as easily I could draw all sorts ofwrong conclusions about a person who amongst 910000 other people get something from a show like  masterbeef. Anyway mate enjoy your reality tv.

I don't actually watch Masterchef and I don't like a lot of reality TV.

But that's not the point. Nor is it the point that jackaub and Rocky thinks it's "crap". The point is that nearly a million people don't think it's "crap".

The Masterchef episode was filmed off-season, and it's a comparatively small effort on the club's and the player's part to get massive exposure on prime time television. It shows there's more to the club than just playing football, and there's a lot of great footage of our magnificent home ground.

I have presumed your view of the club from the massive number of critical posts you make. Maybe you could prove me wrong by being more positive more often as we rise up the ladder. I understand that might be hard.

Oh good god, no. Although I’ve met her plenty of times. She had an unhealthy obsession with verjuice. Like, she bathes in it. 

Just watched it on catch up and thought it was great exposure for the club. Especially liked the copious references to our team as being elite athletes at the top of their game. Well done to all involved.

We’re also going to be special guests on the Block. Building a brick barbecue for a military base. 

Oh, nope, just been cancelled. 

 

 

I’ll see myself out.

Strange praise 

Just thought I'd pose the question. As footy doesn't seem to be Melbourne's go, can we get a trio of players to replace the Masterchef team and who would you choose ?

I think Salem would be a walk up start and perhaps Petracca for some delicious Italian fare.

Who else ??
