Gary Pert on SEN (16/9/21)

Love that Pert is 'flying the flag' for the team.

His 2010/11 grand final preparation experience is going to be invaluable.

Well said Gary. 
Wilson was [censored] stirring big time on Classified last night. 
completely unnecessary 

We are in Perth to get a job done, it’s not a media circus 

Communicate to Families, Members and Supporters. The rest can fight over scraps 

 

The media wouldn't give a rats if every Melbourne player did media 24/7 and lost the Grand Final because of stuffed preparation. In fact, they'd love it because it would give them more stories.

Putting 2 and 2 together, some journo's asked for an interview after 9pm and got shut down, and now there's two stories out of it:

1) "a hard curfew for the players"; and 
2) "Melbourne is being difficult to deal with"

Give me a spell.

I love that they are using this grand final as an opportunity to grow our membership numbers with kids.

Gawn, Kossi and Trac would all be really loveable amongst kids. Also great to see them doing a kids focused zoom call again.

The younger generations is how we keep the club growing and strong for a long time to come.

Say what you like about Pert, but he has done it all before and he knows how to get a club marketed and memberships growing.

I think it's a case of:

  1. We are Lenny Kravitz, and
  2. Caro is "Mr Cab Driver"

Lenny’s best song 🎵 

There's a lot of media space to fill between now and the 25th...

 

Was anyone else in the zoom with yesterday with pert, richo and nibbler?

 

anyway, pert said something along the lines of, richmond sold 3 thousand T-shirt’s in their premiership years (each year) and we have sold nearly 10 thousand! I’m pretty sure that’s what he said

He also said after the Geelong prelim, we made more money those next few days from the demon shop then we did from the shop altogether in 12 months!

I tried to buy some gear and they are sold out, pretty much of everything.

It's not going to make up for no crowds at our big games and no Alice game, but it'll help. As would winning the flag

100%
he said they were 4million in profit half way in the year then lockdown came and now we are just scrapping. Win a premiership and games back to normal next year then it will be a great year next year

Exactly!

There are a lot of Melbourne haters out there. The only way to shut them up is to win!

 

I have been quite pleased with Gary Pert as MFC CEO so far.

Pert has been a great CEO. I hope he stays there for a long time. 
Many People on here and elsewhere have said “We are a small Club and that’s our lot”

I have never subscribed to that. We are only small because we think that way…

The Melbourne Football Club has huge potential

Let’s win the dam GF and see what happens 


Pretty sure Pert was CEO at Collingwood when they lost $1.5m having gone large on 'Side-by-side' merchandise anticipating a GF win.

Hopefully he has learnt some lessons.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
