Thanks Ben for all your hard work. The amount of content that you provided for both the men's and women's team was incredible.

 

Whilst there’s room for it - fixture announcements, contract extensions etc - I like that our socials haven’t descended in to a mess of bad memes and attempted edgy content. 

Our media content reflects our brand and the interviews with players reflect a level of trust and respect. Kudos to Ben.

There was a new person taking photos out on the field at training and their outfit alone made me a little nervous. But I don’t want to judge prematurely. 

Teams give so little to traditional media these days (and I don’t blame them), which means the in house media are really important for how we connect with the team.

A quiet word in their ear, one of you track watchers? A link to a Benny highlight* reel, perhaps? (* noting, never limelight)

No word yet on 'Bursty'? Person? Place? Club?


Damn! Thanks for all your work Gibby, as a nuffy living overseas I followed the club vicariously through you. Gonna be missed.

Nice little thankyou to Ben at the end of Kate H's interview with him at the B&F, on the Club site.

She speaks a truth.

Thanks so much for your work Gibbo, you came at a time when this area needed a lift and less BS needed to be asked in interviews with our players. All the best with your next step.

  • 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.
