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.

Yes, but how many teeth does he have and how many are his?

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

My issue wasn't to do with service levels, but treatment of their workers.  I understand most supporters seem OK to take cash from anyone on the basis that everyone else does, I just wish our club could be more ethical.

I doubt they'd be interested in sponsoring an individual club as they're looking at a bigger prize and lobbying strongly to gain the naming rights for the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

They want it to be known as "The McG".

yeah, and they'd probably want to put arches on the goal posts

Curie - a bit of a reach as unit is non-SI and product is a deodorant!

Too bad the logo isn't on the front. Our mids might kick to a leading target if it were so obvious.

As long as the $$$ sponsorship is in line with the size of the logo.

Until you provide more detail from a source or yourself or more posters back your comments up I will continue to use Hertz and gain my 10/20% discount from them and their high standards of service.

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. 

Read the post on the MFC website. Definitely seems like a happy divorce.

Strong cultural fit with the forthcoming Tassie franchise?

Maybe a "consciously uncoupling" which may leave space for a renewed "coupling" when  their new models are to be released. 

I am surprised Jaguar is still a sponsor. The brand is going nowhere in the Australia market.  One of the poorest selling European brands.

If that’s the case, we will be funding 100% of our new training facility by tomorrow

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
