Maybe a new sponsored podcast? Channel the voice of 'Uncle Doug' (for those of you whom can remember)... Brought to you by Haymes Paint. Yes ladies and gentlemen Haymes Paint - paint the town red and blue.

 

I reckon they're getting their money's worth out of the club website 'All of the Melbourne Goals' segment this year!!!

(They're also getting their money's worth out of my current renovations, too!)

The paint on the laundry ceiling of my apartment is already peeling off in large flakes despite allegedly having been redone before we moved in. Clearly an inferior brand of non-Melbourne-sponsoring paint. You'd never get such failure from our esteemed friends at Haymes Paint!


Only one small outlet in my part of the world (Canberra), but I make the effort to buy Haymes whenever I need paint.  Excellent product and worth the effort ....... and thanks Haymes for being long-term sponsors of our Club!

I'd buy Haymes but in NNSW it's hard to get and certainly impossible with the member discounts.

 

God it’s hard sponsoring a club, fans don’t want any noise outside of the game, you need people to buy yo sh it… signage is needed and you get dudded like that. ??

Never heard of them and never noticed their logo at any of our games. Their marketing team needs to lift.

I’ve painted a few murals with Haymes paint, and it really is a very good quality product. The Port Melbourne guys are really nice and very knowledgeable.

Pretty sure they sponsor all the quarter time/half time activities the Robbo hosts like kicking the footy into the giant paint tin or whatever else they do. They used to do the speckies until some guy almost necked himself


Bump, this is what I wrote in another thread and no I don't have any other connection with the company.

Great Sponsor, great product. Get behind a Victorian company.

I've been sprucing up the property recently and the double discount has been saving me a lot of dollars. Sign up for a Haymes discount card and then show your MFC members card.

Yes I live in Ballarat but seriously the product they produce is awesome and at a seriously competitive price.

 

The number of memes I currently have in my head involving Haymes white paint, which would in-turn result me in being banned (if created and posted) is frightening.

For full effect, they should rebrand as Harmes Paint 

Or he could change his listed name for a week to James Haymes! ?

Being in the business of specifying paint brands/colours, Haymes stands out for coverage and colour saturation. Great product and loyal sponsor. 

Might have to make use of that coverage and saturation to paint my boys bedroom in navy blue with red V's.  My laundry needs a paint too, so might give that the same treatment.

Heck, if we win a premiership, I'll paint the whole of [censored] Brisbane red and blue in quality Haymes paint.  Making me think that Haymes should officially mix up and brand a MFC paint range of red and blue paints (they can forget about the white used in those pox clash strips consigned to the garbage).

Workman doing renovation at my house use Haymes Paint. They said it's the best quality.

I personally have used their Woodcare "Dexpress" Merbau on the outside deck. Comes up a treat and lasts much longer with more "lustre"than Cabots or British paints that I have used before.

What a coincidence.

I directed my on call work crew to strip the Cabots they just put on my deck at my chalet at Thredbo and replace with the Woodcare "Dexpress" Merbau.

Then asked them to do the same for my little shack at Wye River.

  • 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.
