Thats a quality pick up.

Well done MFC?

Agree and not bad for a club that finished 2nd last in 19. To obtain New Era and keep the others is a great thing for the club.

I'd really like to see the Demons be innovative with New Era and come out with some new designs as opposed to the traditional emblems. 

In the US they have so many great hat designs for the different sporting teams and I think we can be a trend setter in Oz.

 

Not Quite Right and The Reject Shop might be suitable.

Yes agree the Partnership Team is doing a great job given the on field performances and the negative social media some of our so called supporters post last season.

Are they? I think they have been a big disappointment and underachiever. Very little value added for sponsors or clever leveraging of club assets. Stability a massive issue too.

This is one area the club could greatly improve on and desperately needs to.

Worrying about over-commercialising our assets is idiocy. Not sure what they think we’re protecting; all we’re doing is stopping ourselves from being successful off-field.

So you feel that there are a number of companies out there that are willing to part with 6 figures or higher to a club that finished seconded bottom? and what assets do you see that the club is holding back on? It looks easy when you are sitting behind a keyboard.

Mate, you'd be surprised what I'm privy to. The sad fact is that we're severely underperforming off-field, culture has taken a downward turn under Pert, and the excuses of under-resourcing due to budget-cutting won't wash as the same issues were present last year.

The place needs more good people and operators, and to stop making amateurish decisions.

Stone-wear sponsors, is this an angle to explore?

Can't back it up eh, thought so.

Not willing to, no need to. You can try to bait me into it but won’t work.

It’s all opinion anyway regardless of the basis.

How very modern to think opionion Trumps facts.

It is my strong opinion that it is fact. However an intangible like culture can never be proven as fact. But certain events and attitudes are fact.

Maybe a difficult concept for some?

Either way, you should be concerned about the direction of our club.

especially as i have no idea what is meant by the nebulous "off field cuture"

I'm not saying you're wrong mate, just trying to clarify.

FWIW I do have concerns about certain things in non-playing/coaching departments, hence why I was pushing for more information.

Cheers.

I’m not going to state it outright. More scrutiny is required though.

I wasn't trying to bait you. You made a statement which now appears to be only an opinion of yours.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • 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?
