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.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
