Seems to be as strong a sponsor as we have had for some time - to cover both AFL and AFLW shows that Zurich truly sees the value in our relationship. Our leading community programs and players (i.e Nev Jetta) help differentiate us from other clubs. 

Anyone know who has been our longest serving main / principle sponsor?

    Good Question! I seem to remember Drake being around for a while back in the 80s or 90s??

    Certainly won't be Energy Watch !

    According to http://www.footyjumpers.com/melbourneS.htm, seems Drake at 6 continuous years between 1985 - 91 are currently the longest serving principal sponsor, with LG & Mayne Nickless at 5 years. Zurich would be close to the longest sponsor if they end up renewing again after 2023.

    Would that be Drake? They were on board in the 1980's through to 1991.

    1992- Snowy mountain spring Water 

    1993 - Pioneer Homes

    1994 to 1997 - Tooheys

    1998 to 2003 - LG

    2004 to 2008 - Primus

    2009 to 2011 - Kaspersky and Hankook

    2012 to 2013 - Opel & Webjet

    2014 - 2017 - AHG 

    2018 to 2023 - Zurich

    We got a good run out of LG in the late 90's/early 2000's.

    How are we going to fit them into the cap? They won't come cheap.

    Wouldn’t worry; just here for insurance…

    Was going to ask how long Tooheys was on board, thanks. Hertz have been around for a long time. I had a training jumper in the mid 80s with Hertz across the front.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
