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.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
