Massive get for the club to get Clare back. Awesome from Gary Pert. A revamped social media team and communications on the way. Hopefully some of the good stuff we saw in 2021 is coming back. Stoked 👏🏼👏🏼

I guess Perty does listen to feedback! 😆

She could use her own surname as a press release title if we swap Pettyfor Brown for one of the Adelaide games.

Go one further and trade her to Adelaide, see if they notice

That is a great get for the Dees hopefully see a step up in media content, just need to get Benny Gibson back in the fold. !!


Really good get.

Also, congrats on her marriage to Gerald Yourthoughts!

Welcome back Clare Pettyfor-Yourthoughts

Clearly the club reads Demonland to set priorities and was greatly alarmed by our collective ambivalence about the social media and publicity efforts.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but she had this near-exact role with us before? During the glory days of Gibbo and peak Gus'n'Gawny?

I had a quick look at her profile - she's seen premierships at three different clubs, and two of those came within a year of that club recruiting her. I'll never underestimate the power of social media again!

This is an absolutely reprehensible pun. Just absolute trash.

The saying is ‘penny for your thoughts’ not ‘petty.’


This ain’t it.

Any relation to Petty?

Maybe he’ll stay now

Brilliant.

Kinda makes my planned question at this year's AGM redundant but!

Isn't this Wilson's modus operandi; give exposure to a half truth then claim to not support it?

Isn't the the media as a whole in a chestnut?

(I always feel a bit dirty hijacking serious threads (big welcome, CP(!) by the way), but...)

Would be the icing on the PR petit four if that game could also be scheduled in one o' them famous SA wine regions. What's it called again?

This is an area that I think many supporters want to see improved, but few truly understand the value of.

As someone who has been in product and brand management for almost two decades, the value of social media, communication and brand marketing in this day and age is enormous.

Getting this area right will go a long way to sustained membership numbers and engagement in our club, especially for our younger demographic which IMO is poorly represented amongst our supporter base thanks to decades of poor on field performance.

I look forward to seeing this area of our club improve not just our brand, but also the bottom line.

Absolutely. The Giants have rocketed into relevance in the past 6-12 months through the power of their onfield performance and top tier social media work. That could be done by any club. All it takes is some understanding of how to engage people on the Internet, along with the traditional engagement clubs always have done (and the obvious - winning games).

Job number one 

Get Ben Gibson BACK

Pay him a decent wage. 
He knew exactly what to do when he came in

Nothing on the Club's site yet?

I guess Clare has to get her feet under the desk before she can write it?...

As long as she doesn't try to get a game off the back of it.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
