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: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
