Good call. I saw this and didn't think anything of it, but if you see how they've placed the NB merch, it's pretty clear iSelect aren't that BOJ sponsor anymore.

They’re the vacant jumpers as well so don’t read too much into sponsorships. 

 

I looked at the pics and wondered why the jumpers looked so good.

I pine for the days before marketing, advertising and entertainment.

We played half a season like that a few years ago and we looked like sheep walking on its hind legs...

The MFC tradition of being poor and unloved is one I can leave behind.

Bring on the stickers...


iselect aren’t renewing, hopefully new sponsor announcement soon

OP - you’ve gotta update your username, too! 

The 2019 fixture for MFC will be attractive to any corporates tossing up sponsoring an AFL side

 

Look at the MFC homepage and you'll notice that it only has Zurich as a co-principal partner.

It appears we will be getting a new sponsor on-board, and with KLV saying that iSelect aren't renewing, maybe they were priced out of the market, which can only be a good thing $$ wise.

If you build it they will come.

Either that or let SWYL takeover your account for a few hours.

Brayshaw+Viney-Hogan=Flag perhaps?

When are we going to get Range Rover or Mount Buller as a major sponser? Time to profit off those lame jokes.

Assuming one of the reasons Pert on board was big sponsorship experience, although he did have Eddie in his corner previously.

Couple of comments on Facebook that Infiniti will be on the back.

Gees i hope it's someone from Coll, cats, TWSNBN or WC or all of them

I noticed this too.

The iSelect logo with its orange was a bit of a clash so not the worst thing.

Still not as bad as the Super Amart logo on the Bombers jumper.

Give it to 'bub and he'll have it done in 15 minutes.

That's the one thing I've noticed about American sports, despite being so heavily commercial they haven't tarnished the uniforms with sponsorship aside from maybe the apparel maker which is pretty much all Nike.

It looks cheap with the sponsorship on back but it's the world we live in.

 

I look forward to Perty crashing this thread to scald us plebs for expecting sponsors to appear almost magically.

Thay can because USA sports get hundreds of millions of dollars from TV right, example the NFL clubs get 260 mill each from TV rights a year.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
