I read on another thread about New Balance logos coming off the guernseys.

 

This has passed me by. Can someone fill me in?

One can only surmise but I assume IG paid a higher price for that piece of real estate. 

If this is in relation to the indigenous jumpers thread then NB is still on it at the bottom next to the MFC logo

Good. We aren’t a basket case any more, but a premium product which deserves a premium level of sponsorship.


New Balance pay us around 75k less per year under their commercial teams. IG have ended up paying around 150k more. 

It was the Gold Coast Suns who pioneered these commercial terms with NB. 

 

LG as in Sony and Panasonic?

Life’s Good?

It was Lucky Goldstar.


IS it IG or LG?

no idea….

I thought UNIQLO was Qld Uni for years

We'd probably still have Mission if Cameron Schwab was a capable CEO.

iprimus, opel, and who could forget Energywatch

EnergyWatch lasted about one week from memory.

If memory serves, the owner got all racist and was posting his racism online? 

 

That seems right, they also went out of business and didn't pay up l believe. Sponsorship seems to have been a last ditch effort to survive

Yes. Including a photo shopped picture of Jurrah on field with a machete with some terrible words to go along with it.

Opel.  Or some other car brand that doesn't exist anymore.  We weren't ever sponsored by Daewoo, were we?

don't think so, but renault rings a bell but i may have misremembered

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
