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"

    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

    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.

      The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

      The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

      “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

      The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

      It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

      Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
