Up on the Melbourne FC website that Jaguar are leaving as co-principal partner, with an announcement on our new co-principal sponsor coming soon.

Anyone heard anything about who this may be?

    As a result of Jaguar leaving I can confirm the next car I buy will NOT be a Jaguar.  Purely out of respect to MFC and not due to my sad looking bank account aha

    Sad to see Jaguar leave but we have had a long relationship with Hertz and it is great that they have stepped up to Co Principal Partner with the mighty Dees. Great to see Hibbo and Neita in the add as well.😁😁

    For all the fashionistas out there, yes this yellow logo is visually offensive, but you know what isn't visually offensive? Having a positive bank balance!

    Couldn't they just use all white letters and no big yellow square?

    Not that we'll ever know but wonder if this was Jaguar not being prepared to pay more than Hertz or them just deciding to not sponsor Dees anymore. Hope it's the former. I would imagine the cost of sponsorship is a lot more now than it was when they first came on board.

    Sorry ElDiablo but that would dilute their Brand and their brand is quite strong and well known.

    Not best pleased about this.  Hertz has a very poor history in regards to ethical behavior, particularly in the way it has treated employees.  You'd think that a club that has finished Top 4 regularly and won a flag could attract someone more in line with our own values.

    Sneak peak at the new back of the jumper.

    Once the number is in the normal spot, it won’t actually look as bad as I thought. Rather not not be yellow, but that’s their brand and they are getting good exposure

    Unethical sponsors is the go-to for champion clubs.

    Collingwood has Emirates, KFC, LaTrobe Financial, and Nike.

    An all-flavours ice cream box of worker exploitation, dishonest finance, actual slavery, and fatbergs.

    I googled to check something about Emirates airlines; the CEO/quasi-owner is of course a son of the previous god-king of Dubai.

    "Ahmed's career in the aviation industry began in 1985 when he was appointed president of the Dubai Department of Civil Aviation (DCA). Emirates, the national carrier, was launched at the same time, with Ahmed appointed chairman."

    Love it. Pure Collingwood. He even married his cousin.

    I’m sure someone, somewhere would be offended by that.

    I have found Hertz great to deal with both here and in the U.S .Terrific service and always honour the MFC discount.

    I think the purpose is for the logo to be an contrast to the club colours.

    It needs to stand out.

    That's why Hertz choose to sponsor us and not the tigers, where the logo would blend in.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
