Correct.

This is purely a way to get people to donate money to the club, and it is all a bit of fun.

If the Michael Newton hysteria helps raise a few hundred dollars, than that's great. I doubt he'll find out about it, and even if he does, I'm sure he'll feel a little chuffed and move on.

The real pressure on the kid will come when he runs out with the team for the first time, regardless of how the supporters might feel.

I think you'll find that most people just want to see him get a chance, not many are expecting him to come out and dominate. If they are, they need a reality check.

Alright I'm in......

$30 if (when) he plays & $20 if (when) he kicks a goal in the game.

Hope it helps!!!

 

Pressure of your first AFL game is high anyway, what we are doing is nothing.

Besides its a fun way to help the club out finacially and be funny if the club find out they could get $1k for playing the kid and their reaction.

Hell i sponsor a girl in Haiti, why a MFC player for a game.

Should we rename him the revenue maker? :)

Im up for 15 bangers.

20 straight up, and 10 each goal, lets hope its not 10 on debut

I was thinking last night that I hope he doesn't kick more than 3 because I'm very poor at the moment... Oh, the conflict of interest! :lol:

 

I think the Footy Show would love to hear about something like this if anyone has any Channel 9 contacts?

I don't have any contacts, but places like sportal might be accessible, and if you got to craig hutchenson via footyheads that might be an avenue to the footy show.

I'm busy at uni (don't let the fact that I'm posting instead of listening in class fool you :P)... you do it! <_<

In all seriousness, I can't access emails on uni computers.

I'll formulate the letter if someone else is happy to send it.

Not yet... mine start on Friday!

I've got a couple more exams to go too, but as can you see, I'm studying real hard at the moment :rolleyes:

Michael Newton intrigues me far more than the Australian Standards of fire hazard labelling for children's nightwear and such.

Fashion merchandising/ product development.

My god we get off topic easily...

Sorry to hijack Newton's cause!

Its amazing what you can make up to get yourself excited for a game of football, when your team is second bottom and not a massive chance at winning many more games :)

l will go with 20 for a game

and one membership for every goal up to five goals

so it could be 20 and up to 5 memberships


I usually always end up on the wrong end of these things so to gaurantee Juice has a good first game I'll pledge $30 if he debuts and $10 for each goal + another $50 if he gats a bag of 5.

Seriously though, no pressure Juice, it's just the fact that we have had little to get exited about and this is one way to get the heart pumping.

 

hey jaded can we get a total update from here and demonology kept in the first post of the thread for us all to check out?

Ok, which one of you guys called SEN and told them about this thread?

Who on SEN mentioned it? Jeez, I hope ND doesn't leave him out to spite us :blink:

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
