same as i-select

ISelect started as our AFLW sponsor and then stepped up to men’s sponsor, ran into issues and have pulled back a lot of spend, Dees being 1 of those.

    I was aware of that.  Doesn't change my view that it may have been deliberate.  For a start we don't know to whom they sent that release.

    Companies know when people read, click, consume content, they would have waited until the time they believed it would deliver the biggest bang for buck. PR teams, marketing teams are all over this kind of stuff... allegedly.

    Very interesting point and kudos for the $$ spent JLR. Hopefully they find value on the partnership and go around again.

    Opel may be back with Commodore & Astra ++ Inchape looking at buying the Holden brand

    I doubt the Aussie Market will touch them. 

    Holden buyers feel very cheated if you read many online comments. They have hardly sold anything in the last year. 

    Ford were smart. The Mustang is a Ford product people already connect with. 

    GM left a hole ?

    Said to A ... if they can make a SUV like this...that drives like it looks...can go a distance..  you're on a winner.

    Hello Jaguar EPace ;)

    That makes 2 sponsorships out from 2018 and 1 in for 2019.

    We still seem to have a revolving door when it comes to sponsors. It would be nice to not have to worry about signing sponsors at the culmination of every year.

     

    As for the $1m+ sponsorship, would that not mean that we lost $1m+ due to infiniti no longer sponsoring us?

    1 co-principal partner out - iSelect. 1 co-principal partner in - Jaguar.

    They are the jumper sponsors and the big ones to get signed and hopefully on multi year deals. I think the AFL brand protection rules would only be for that level of sponsor. Toyota can't be cheaply undercut by Mazda buying Gold Coast's jumper sponsorship for $200,000 is surely the idea there. For the lower level of sponsors I doubt the rule would apply. There's almost no way Infiniti would've paid us 1M+ to not even be a jumper sponsor last year.

    In terms of Major Sponsors - which infinity was last year, they are the ones that get worn on the shorts and club polos and have match day activities. The website currently lists 8. Johnnie Walker, IG, China Southern, Haynes Paint, Chisholm, NT, New Balance, CSG.

    Plenty of time to add more at that level. We've had multi year deals with those companies.

    We could make them whistle as they go,  or play music externally, OD ?

    This is a significant issue for people with visual impairments.  In the US, electric cars have to make a noise below 20 kmh.  It is an option that is switched off as normal in Australia, and is a real danger to visually impaired people in car parks...

    Jag wouldn’t start!! :)

    Brilliant TV ? 

    Great TV.

    Along with West Wing it can be watched multiple times and you still get new takes on issues.

    Has to be the best ending ever to a series as well.

    Yes Madmen and Breaking Bad both had superb endings, which after such an intense and long journey is so important...

    Is the ‘J’ in Jaguar pronounced the same way as we pronounce the ‘J’ in Jagermeister? ‘Yaguar’?

    Does anyone know the commercial terms?

    Great news to have the BOJ sponsor secured prior to Round 1. It shouldn't be difficult, but it has been.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
