Sir Why You Little

Beating those 4 teams (and Whorethorn) is the only way things will change DV8 By doing that a new Generation of kids will wear the Red and Blue

Well go in and argue it at HSV 7 I have seen paperwork, the Big 4 clubs in Victoria still hold clout, They WANT Carlscum back up there, we will not get the same assistance because since Videotape was used (1965) The MFC has done nothing signifigant We are not thought of as winners, we are classed as an easy kill, and that does not sell advertising I worked at GTV 9 before going to the ABC, i know how advertising drives a TV Station, and they are getting more desperate Channel 7 have spent $Millions, they need quick returns and that in Melboure, which is the biggest audience comes from the old “Big 4” Advertisers want to be seen on certain games, we are plan B at this stage That’s why we are still given 3.30 Sunday games. We fill the quota, but do not shape it. Until we win big games regularly that will not change

Very cool

That would be a great get

You really think Ch 7 are just given the fixture the AFL gives them after paying such a hi price? i can assure you it doesn’t work like that, Ch 7 have a massive say in how the fixture is constructed. You may not like it and nor do i, but Carlscum have 16 cups and the majority of them have been won since 1965, when TV ? started to seriously cover the game. Our victories are on 16mm newsreels that is the difference

Yes it’s all about ratings and the old school Big 4 Victorian clubs still rate We are not in that niche..yet We have to earn it

Channel 7 has paid signifigant $$$’s to the AFL In return they have a very large say in how the fixture is structured. Ch7 still make money out of Carlscum on a friday night, sadly. They are still a “Big” Victorian club in terms of viewers

Better than staying there!!

I only remember Dennis on Ch7 from around ‘89 i don’t think he was on Melbs Radio

The story isn’t old, it will be linked with he 2018 season If the season goes well, it won’t be an issue. On the other hand, if we hit a bad patch, the mental toughness will be questioned..

I am with you. Gaff is massively over rated. He has been very ordinary in September If his Family weren’t Demons, he would be mostly unknown. Dahlhous is twice the player

This is why i got so angry at Round 23 last year. Finals exposure can set up the next 2-3 years. TV Stations generate the profits in September. The exposure rates go up... But if the Boys aern’t going to lay a tackle in the first 11 mins of the game, when September is on the line, i can understand Sponsors and Broadcasters not wanting to touch us. Sponsorship is not cheap, they expect value for it.

Yes. With Don Hyde

Good on Infiniti for coming onboard, but this is exactly why i have said our 2018 fixture is a piece of [censored]. Look at the disparity in those above Sponsorship deals, up to $10 million difference and that was 3 years ago. The club has done all it can. It’s the Football Dept. The Coaches and Players who must lift the old girl up the ladder now. I have been saying it for 10 years, i know the above figures give you the answer. We either get Prime Sponsorship or we have to sell home games to the middle of Australia, that get shown on Fox.

Dr. Who at our MFC Business Lunches ”Security”....

It’s actually the high end of technology, right on the edge. But my old man raced Albert Park in the 1950’s, so it is in my blood Daniel Ricciardo is a great sportsman flying the Australian Flag ?? on an International Stage So often the Demons first game is on at the same time. Sick of it

Nothing like thrashing a Rental for a week!!

This is the year that Jesse will make his career. The new dawn after the darkest hour

Stop it!!

Only if we have a good season....

I knew this would come back the Head Coach was usurped by a large group of his players, those same players who choked a Finals Berth at the last hurdle, but, who refused to do what Craig Bellamy and the Mighty Melbourne Storm do every year.... How would you feel? These unnamed 14 had better play the best season of footy they have ever played.... otherwise the club will get ripped apart come August/September

What?

You have mixed feelings because you are a Tiger ? Dr. You should be run out of town at dawn, Clint Eastwood style you are very good at fence sitting....

Good. I hope they both break down early in the 2nd Quarter. If they play, they are fair game. Run the bastards as hard as possible... BANG! “That’s you for the day...”
