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.

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.

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.

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.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
