Guessing that's Josh Mahoney reaching in. 16 years is a long time to be at one place, especially for someone relatively young. Probs good for everyone involved really.

Highly thought of inside the industry. Twill be interesting to see if thereโ€™s external visibility on this loss over the course of the year.

We leaked a fair portion of our stories through Clark, so hardly a surprise he likes the guy.

That said, weโ€™ve managed the media well Iโ€™ve thought. Mostly kept things in house until they were ready to go, made sure we got a fair hearing on our side of the story and also got our fair share of press.

Good luck to whoever takes over in a year that will likely be chaotic again, could see a coach firing and possibly even the board under pressureย 


Never heard of this bloke but if he had responsibility for our website then probably best to part company

And????

Non-solicitation clause obviously not in Josh Mโ€™sย contract - ย amateur hour at the Deeโ€™s.....

Was he responsible for sending out the finals marketing in 2017 the weekย before we made failed to make finals? That fiasco is still embarrassing!


I thought he got fired earlier in the year and ended up at the Dogs?

The communication with members has been woeful in recent years. If that was his brief, then a change was long overdue.

Unless we're also happy for Larkin to go.

(I have no idea if that's the case. I've never heard of the guy.)

Good luck to Ryan ( donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve ever heard the name) butย this commentย made me laugh after clicking on the op link/tweet.

โ€œEssendon supporters will be stoked. You can tell the Bombers really struggled last year with digital marketing, especially in the third quarter.โ€

good idea - email the club


I actually think our marketing departmentย ย do a fairly good job considering what they have to work with.

He must be feeling like a kid let out in a candy store. The money a big club like them have for marketing/digital compared to a small club like us will be massive.ย Having said that ideas are the key not resources.ย 

BTW, his dad reads and for a while posted on DL.

Ess wouldn't poach him if he wasn't very highly thought of.ย  PJ promoted him to the role so that says something and I think it is churlish to blame him for all the communication issues people perceive about the club.

While I think he is a loss, it is good for his career to get experience somewhere else.ย  I wish him every success

Absolutely agree.

Very thankful to Ryan. All the current day players and officials we have had on the podcast were organised through him.

I believe the finals communications were before he became the head of comms. In any event whilst it was bad optics, had we made finals and the mail outs were late people would be bitching about that [censored] up. Damned if you do and all that. Can't blame the comms team for not making the finals.

Communications have massively improved in Ryan's time at the club. I wish him all the best.

Wouldn't marketing/digital spend be part of the "soft cap"? I realise within the soft cap clubs will prioritise where they choose to spend their money but because of this cap I wouldn't have thought any club would be able to spend massively more on marketing and digital than any other club.ย 

If it's not part of the soft cap, then I agree with you.

Pretty certain soft cap is the football department. Originally brought in to even up the competition because big clubs were spending way more than small clubs with extra development, coaches, IT and stats support etc

Tough Gig.. Must enjoy polishing [censored] lol

Good Luck Ryan thanks for sticking with us for 16 years, but as I have found over my working life that as one door closes another one opens and I think that couldย auger well for us in the future at MFC.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
