May as well give a loyal sponsor a plug. The Melbourne Football Club's partnership with IG, the world's leading online trading provider will continue for another 2 seasons.

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2018-12-18/ig-partnership-continues

IG’s logo will continue to  be present on the coaching staff’s uniform until the end of the 2020 season, with the partnership running for six consecutive years in total.

Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin announces the IG partnership.

 

What a good thing. Not many people had heard of IG before this sponsorship...they have done well...

This is something PJ was aiming for in 2013: long term corporate partnerships. We had real troubles holding any type of sponsor before 2014 so to have one who had hung around for 6 years is bloody great.

And even then I still hadn't heard of them. For some reason I thought we were sponsored by the electronics brand LG.

Neville Jetta will probably go down as my all-time favourite player.

You do know that that is the Wiz not Jetta.

Nothing to do with my sense of humour. Poster admitted he made a mistake thinking the photo of the Wiz was Jetta.

Fair enough. Was so obvious I thought no one could mistake the two. Seems I was wrong....I'll add that to the other time I was wrong which was around 10 yrs ago. It was a Wednesday afternoon and it was raining......

They are certainly not a cheap no name brand anymore.  Much like our mighty Demons, what an evolution they have gone through in the last 15 or so years.  Now very much a high end brand, as too hopefully are our Demons over the forseeable future. For me the mutual association between LG and the MFC continues when I watch game day on my LG OLED TV!!

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
