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: 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.
