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.

    and according to google images they commonly use a mid-blue and a light-blue logo

    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?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
