Their foray into formula 1 was not that successful.

Lovely logo though and it's nice to have something on the jumper that people actually know.

Took me years to work out who in the hell SEW were on the Hawks jumper !!

Almost bought one  a couple of years back. Out of the West the luxury cars were going relatively cheaply after the mining boom came to an end.

    The F1 team was bought out by Red Bull, so they had part of it right  still use the same factory  

    Probably never put in the top $$$’s

    but Tom Walkinshaw had huge success

    Ever seen inside a Jaguar Dashboard from the 80’s with the top off?

    Scary Stuff :)

    A mate had an XJ6 for years, she was beautiful to ride in, but a nightmare if the electrics went dodgy!!

    C'mon guys, why cant we all just support our new sponsor without the negatives.

    I have been waiting for Jaguar to sponsor us just so i have an excuse to buy the worlds best sounding car.  The Jaguar F-Type SVR

    I ordered this after the announcement.....

    Feast your ears on this little beauty.

     

     

     

    Ok, so the claim about ordering this is a total lie, but it sounds epic dunnit??????

    Welcome to the MFC Jaguar !!!!

     

    575 HP All wheel drive

    Their logo and iconic name looks great on the back of our jumpers.  I welcome their coming on board.

    I agree beeb but as a car they are ok, Opel build nice cars.  Ford did a much better job of phasing out local production, it helps to have the Mustang. Anyway the Opel sponsorship is moot.

    Grateful to all sponsors so welcome Jag, still would have been funny had it been a Range Rover sponsorship.

    Would we all have been forced to get constant updates on the club website about the 2013 MFC administration and about how he was right in the end if Rangey had sponsored the club? ;)

    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.

    according to some media types, it has to be a minimum 7-figure deal per annum in order to get around the afl's no-compete clause for their official major partner, toyota

    so even if it's a one-year deal it's still of a greater value than the i-select deal, which was rumoured to be about $1m for both aflw and afl boj co-major partner sponsorship

    I'm pretty sure the captains got cars from AHG. I wonder if they'll get a JAG out of this sponsorship. Incentive to get into the leadership group.

    Well done MFC. It's great to finally have a recognisable entity on the jumper.

    I would imagine it’s not easy to get any company to invest $1m+ per annum in a sponsorship these days.  Well done to MFC.  Hope it turns into a longer term deal.

    Gimme that members discount.

    Yep, can't wait for the "We win, you win" promo. A Jag would look very nice in the car hole next to the Austin-Healey.

    It's a damn fine looking logo that's for sure.

    Much better than the iSelect orange box.

    Could see a few jumpers sold this year ;)

    Good news, it's just a shame it's only one year because we need out get out of this cycle of not having a sponsor when retail jumpers are made for the upcoming season.

    Practical point of view and it makes good sense, Clint. Overall, I'd like the Club jumper to traditionalise - similar to the earlier days of the 70s and 80s - with advertising if one must to meet the costs associated with footy these days as sponsors do much for our current circumstances. I'd really like to buy a MFC jumper for each of my grandsons to wear (for about 2 years as they will grow out of them so quickly) but as you say, sponsor on, sponser off, new sponsors, old or passed sponsors make this similarly confusing and redundant for such a purpose - and for brand recognition associated with the MFC. Them's the breaks!

    • 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.
