I don’t really understand your reply. What is a multi-national? NB, IG?

You still haven’t explained your initial reply. I’ll try to interpret meaning. NB already have enough advertising? I still have no idea whether you are for/against NB not having additional branding somewhere else on the jumper, replacing the spot they’ve lost. 

i took your initial comment as branding elsewhere i.e. other than mfc

Remember when speculation about sponsors occupied multiple pages and threads here, as often we didn't have any?

Remember the forlorn, forgotten club hanging out for a lifesaver until a supporter drummed up a certain Russian tech group?

Remember Jimmy courting a potential, and not to be named or patronised, sponsor only to have it snatched away at the death?

Be grateful those times are past.

This I can live with.

I do, it was hard. Very hard. Often we would leave it right up until the eve of the season to secure a major jumper sponsor.

Much prefer the alternative.

So a fashion guru named "Biskit" is the sole judge and jury on our new sponsorship partner IG ( who prob has paid 1/2 mill or maybe even a $mill for the privilege) for their logo in the prime position in 2023. 

Let's  be honest it's small and is not any different really to the previous prime logo  sponsor NB ( New Balance).  It doesn't take over the jumper and is much more subtle than the Hertz yellow background.

Any one claiming it ruins the jumper or is out of line just wants to create  a big hoo ha has  not much else to grumble about. 

Our jumper looks good because of its red and blue heritage and our design and the more sponsorship we can gain far outweighs any pitiful grandstanding.

 

Meds time… someone needs to take a chill pill or ten. It’s a topic of discussion. 

And if you’re gonna take someone to task, at least spell their name correctly. It’s B-I-Z-K-I-T 😜

MCW

SorryBizkit apologies in your name error.

However MCW if you reckon because I replied to BiZkit why didn't you call him out with a chill pill also?

Threatened like a balloon ready to burst if the "good money for Club" line was used. Didn't like 2 letters changing on our beloved prime guernsey which looks great all the time! 

It's Ok to introduce a thread but not to have a reply back if it is virtually making a mountain out of a molehill. 

After all it's all about sponsorship $$ and we are the winners in 2023 and ongoing years. 

You must be pleased about extra chunk  of sponsorship has been secured for our future. 

Go Dees !! $$$

Uhm you misspelled my name (again).

It’s NOT MCW!

It wasn’t MCW six months ago when I hadda correct you, nor will it EVER be MCW!

Sheesh, now you’ve got me needing a chill pill or ten. 

BTW, I totally agree with you about the sponsorship $$$. And about us being winners in 2023. ❤️💙
GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

I'd just like to hear Clint's take on it because I'm legitamately not following.

Is it the logo? Is it selling out? Is it too many sponsors on the jumper? Is the company IG aligned with an evangelical group? What's the sticking point?

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
