    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?

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
