Yes - fantastic news. The off-field have kept their part of the bargain, now for the footy boys to bring home the bacon!

 

Well done to the club off-field this year, for all the doom and gloom that happened early (and I was extremely worried) it has appeared we have actually managed things very well.

The club has been managed extremely well off field which is what makes the thought of a board challenge laughable. If the team was winning no-one would be questioning the board, Bartlett or Pert. 


We definitely know how to run our media department these days.

I mentioned in the Zurich re-signing thread the other day that we'd have to have signed up Jaguar already too.

Made sense given we'd need financial certainty in order to plan for the million dollar fundraising campaign. I'd say the deal was done just prior to that being announced.

It's great news and wonderful to see another major sponsor re-commit.

Lucky you.

Good to have major sponsors tied up and not worry about empty jumper space.


I've been in a jag once.  Property manager of the apartment gave me a lift back to the office to sign the lease.

Good times.

Sponsorship contracts are usually full of multiple exposure kickers.

Unfortunately I doubt we hit any of them for 2020.

Will be interesting to see how much red ink there is in the annual report.

A repeat of poor on field performances (especially in the first 5-6 games of the season), lower memberships and compromised crowds due to covid will test us severely in 2021. 

Each organisation's brand characteristics accurately reflects that of the other.

Great that Jaguar stuck fat in these times that have been tough for everyone.  Great work by Gary Pert.

The GF Kit photos just made me think of Jaguar and how they stuck with us, which surprised me somewhat. 

Definitely a good gamble on their behalf

On a per capita of Jaguar drivers in Melbourne I would say 99% are Melbourne fans 😂

Yeah look if they gave us a 57% discount if we break our 57 year premiership drought I will go buy a wheel or a keychain with all the money at my disposal.

Anyone know if Jaguar are coming back next season?

Seeing lots of other clubs rolling out 2022 guernseys and hoping we don't have to wait too long for our gold logos.

Not many comments re Pert being the wrong guy in this thread.

I’ll say it - he’s the wrong guy. We have succeeded in spite of him.

We’re very fortunate the football dept culture has been built strongly before his time, because he’s not the man to do it.

I’m also not going to applaud the guy for managing to re-sign a major sponsor following a flag. Setting the bar fairly low.

 

Hopefully we get Jaguar back in board.  Supported us before we were premiers.  
 

Though I’m sure the sponsorship $$ have risen by at least 20% for 2022.
 

we are the Premiership team.  Lots of exposure.  Lots of merchandise.

Your an embarrassment to yourself Mach 5 ( or should it be Mach --5 ) because that's how low you stoop. 

If Perty has something in the Closet you are  either too embarrassed to mention OR it's just a despicable and underhand fake attack on our Club Administration leader who has  plenty of credits in the Bank.

No matter how you try to  discredit Gary your not succeeding and the likelihood of a very personal and false attack is greater but more in vain and less likely after every success our CEO is ticking as the weeks and days go by.

You probably are trying to water down the enormous effects that our Premiership is having as it brings more praise on the Club, our Officials and our players as each day goes by!

Give it a rest ie put up with the facts or please SHUT UP.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
