Pretty sure you can. This was our jumper in 2021. 

Zurich probably didn't like it. They have now probably insisted on the correct colour.

    big call out for mine is that this is the first time they've come on board as a sponsor within the afl industry

    i'm almost 100% they were on board with the smjfl a few years back

    but getting a company that's not previously invested in the big end of the industry? that's some fantastic off-field work

    What are Grill’d burgers like? I hope they don’t use brioche buns and mayonnaise.

    Was just about to post the same. I don't want sponsor dollars derived from ripping off workers. i hope they've cleaned up their act.

    You’re in luck; they don’t use any ingredient or collection of ingredients that would make up a burger that could be fit for eating.

    The one thing I really don't like from Grill'd is their chips, what's with the grass clippings? Just put chicken salt please.

    I used to think the same…. Now I love them.

    Also, if you haven’t tried the HFC chicken bites do yourself a favour and order them!

    Fair Work signed off on the traineeships. The union says they're not worthwhile but if you're keen for a career in hospitality it can get you a great gig managing a bar or restaurant. Many fast food joints do the same thing. I got paid less back in the day at Maccas to do the same thing. I'm sure businesses are taking advantage of it but Grill'd did nothing wrong legally.

    Good work Dees.

    Good company in the 'quick serve restaurant' category from what I've heard.

    Sounds like there'll be another sponsor announced in the not too distant future too.

    Is this replacing IG on the front of the guernsey?

    Sort of

     

    IG were going to leave after 2021 but we won the flag - so they stayed for another few years.

    I think they make a good burger.

    Your user name prompts me to ask anyone living in the Malvern area if they remember when Grill'd in Glenferrie Road used to be Ollie's Trolley?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
