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: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
