Have just seen that Red Bull have joined the MFC as a ‘partner’ (sponsor?).  Great match for the colours, and hopefully we can be as exciting and successful as their other partners!  Welcome!

    Extra special effort in these tough times.

    Have we had to give up the name Melbourne?

    So we're now the Red Bull Demons?

    Or Melbourne Red Bulls?

    Mind you, Red Bull might lack exposure now from their other sports sponsorships (F1, for example), so aligning with a professional, televised sport which is still functioning (at least for the time being) is smart. I admit I'd be surprised if such a decision could have been made that quickly, but if so, that's some stunning agility which I guess matches their brand.

    If they fund the club like Leipzig or Salzburg I wouldn’t care.

    A fantastic signing in the current climate.  I'll wager that there aren't too many other AFL clubs who have signed up new sponsors in the Covid-19 era.  Well done MFC!

    What a great coo by the MFC.

    Massive brand name in world, will look impressive having their logo on our gurnseys and Polo tops if the sponsorship is of significance.

    It’s probably just some free cans of drink every year.

    Not research. I live in that country, and this is a very well known story. It's just one of many similar cover-ups. He will never face justice. The media picks it up occasionally, there's public outrage, the police fumble through putting a red notice in to Interpol. 2 weeks later the red notice disappears after the discussion dies down.

    It [censored] me to tears every time I watch sport and see the profile of this company, everywhere, while nobody is aware of this story.

    I hope this VPN works.....

    Not desirable at all.


    Though would be good to finally get away something (I.e. tanking)

    Very few sports still playing their seasons.  I reckon ours will go international viewing, around the Globe.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
