Would there be much to negotiate?

Surely, a company would have X $ in its marketing or advertising budget, and that would be that. it just depends whether that is enough for a back of the jumper sponsor.  

I would imagine it would depend on what Melbourne can offer in terms of brand exposure. It shouldn't be as simple as $X in marketing/advertising budget, but maybe you're right.

I would think if we have a new sponsor then we (and they) would want to wait to get the best bang for buck on the announcement.

Surely now is not the time.

I have no doubt we have this well in hand and as others have said we are now a hot property.

 

AGM is 17th. Dec!

Thanks dc. 

My research methods need some improvements. ? 

It would be get a long term sponsor, Instead of changing every couple years like a couple of the more powerful clubs.

Any news on this? Surely we're past the day's of heading into a season without a major sponsor.

I'm not sure why you think we don't have a major sponsor. I think the list as a whole is pretty strong.

That is 2018 list, don’t believe iSelect are men’s team sponsor for 2019.

Hadn't seen that confirmed but you may be correct.

In which case Pert still has plenty of time to make an announcement in 2019.

I would think to maximize the exposure for any new sponsor there are much better places in the news cycle.

There is a reason this is called a non ratings period.

Does anyone know when the iSelect deal runs out? This picture from the melbourne facebook page has the empty jumper numbers for next year without a back of jumper sponsor. New major sponsor coming?

Weren't Infinity becoming our BOJ sponsor or was that just a rumor around here.

First I heard of it BBP.

Then again, I rely on others in the know to deliver the scoops on here.

I think that Infinity is a likely option. Given that their logo has disappeared from the 2019 polos to date, but were on the 2018 polo sleeves and also on the front (replacing IG until they extended their partnership recently) during the National Draft.

I think its nutting out the length and dollars, and waiting for a good media opportunity. Whether its Infiniti, i don't know. The Infiniti black and white colour scheme would look great on the back, replacing the orange block of ISelect.

Infinity should step up to be the BOJ sponsor?  Roy Morgan produce research each year about car sponsorship of AFL, as the automakers get good ROI from it.  Seems cheap for a car manufacturer to not be a major sponsor. If Infinity don’t want it then Pert has history signing sponsorships with car manufacturers.

Infinity is a poor selling brand. They are making very little head way in the Australian market. Nissan is trying to do the same as Toyota has done with Lexus. However the product is not a patch on the Lexus brand. Well Nissan don't seem to be able to sell the idea in Australia. Motoring writers are giving them ordinary reviews. High priced tarted up Nissans IMO. Don't be surprised if they disappear as a sponsor sooner rather than later.

Agreed. Infinity has not made an impact at all. 

Nissan is known for the GTR


Let’s just pay the cfmeu to be our boj sponsor and get our training facilities started.

OD, I believe you if you say they’re selling poorly in Oz. 

Have you driven one?  My girlfriend traded her Q40 for a new Q50.  I drove both a lot and they’re really nice, and selling very well here in Los Angeles

I was thinking why don’t we just look at Nissan but upon a quick search see that the Hawks have just done that.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
