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: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • 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.
