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

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

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?

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

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

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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
