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"

    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

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
