Well done to the club and the Sponsorship team getting this done in the current climate. Where are all the doom spreaders now telling us the club is not doing the right thing and holding back!

    That's a good effort getting the Geelong 'born and brewed' beer sponsoring the Dees.

    Bad luck [censored]!

    Don't worry they are still around ready to pounce at the first sight of things not appearing to be right, just like vultures.

    Very good get at a time when sponsors are questioning value of associations and exposure is restricted. Congratulations to both club and Furphys.

    I'm a Furphy fan, it's not a special beer but it goes back easy enough and doesn't break the bank. 

    I'm happy they've got on board and the club should be congratulated for continuing to bring in support.

    Might have to do the same myself now too.  What do they say about a hard earned thirst...mater a fact I've got one now.

    Whoops, wrong beer.  Anyways will be getting behind Furphy's now they have got behind the mighty Demons, as shouldd every Demons supporter of drinking age and inclination.

    First Johnny Walker now Furphy’s - next cab off the rank should be makers of thiamine.

    Unfortunately I think Johnnie Walker is no longer a sponsor of the MFC. They aren’t on the sponsor page anyway  

    This year HERTZ are now on our shorts where the JWalker logo was last year. 
     

    Shame really, I like a bit of JW (Black and up) and now I can’t justify it by saying it supports the MFC.

    On a side note, I saw something today about AFL clubs looking to sell advertising  real estate on the back of the jumper. Looking at adding additional sponsors.

    Hertz USA has just gone into Bankruptcy protection, so hope Hertz Australia is a separate Company.

    Noted that. But Chapter 11 in the US is intended to enable companies to trade their way out of strife. It is not the end.

    Any car hire company is going to feel some pain under lockdown. Hopefully our Hertz can ride this out.

    • 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?

      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.
