Also nice to see those jumpers looking nice and purple/pink/fuscia again for the team photo. CS must have been too busy in China getting the huge sponsorship deal doen to worry about fixing the seizen jumpers! again, well done!

The season to start and for us to start winning games! Fair?

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/tabid/8667/contentid/420577/default.aspx nice, we will have a team photo without a sponsor. Well played Dees!

I would feel better if I had confidence in the staff the club have operating the 'business' part of things. Thats not a dig at CS but more at those staff who seem to treat the MFC as a part time business. Some may want to fire back over that, hut my experience with staff at the MFC is that their is a level of unprofessionalism.

FACTS: We have no major sponsor and the pre-season is 2 weeks away. We were in a similiar position the last time we were sponsorless We are the worst represtened club in terms of merchandise in AFL stores state wide Our branding has not grown at all in 10 years. We are near last in terms of social media 'Likes' and 'Followings' We were the laughing stock of the AFL last year when we played in 'Pink' jumpers all season after Mr Schwabby wanted to return to the 'deep' red of the 60's. We have an apparel sponsor that sucks. We have no innovative of forward thinking merchandise. The new 'emblem' looks great when produced in large print, but is totally undesirable for thumbnaail reproduction. - You may all see these as little things, but to me it stinks of laziness and 2nd rate attitudes by those that are responsible for selling the club. Call it an agenda if you like, i don't care much. EDIT: Spelling

I reckon you make a number of valid points. I have found myself asking some of these questions recently as well. The MFC marketing department is a sham. I have had several discussions via email with them, and there knowledge and understanding of the market they operate in is well below par. As for social media, I believe Ricky Petterd's sister heads that up. She had no real experience in the area, but got the job so we could sweeten Ricky's deal. I agree, its free advertising, should be better. I also feel that if Schwabb fails ton deliver a second major sponsor after catergorically claiming we would have a 2nd sponsor when the first was announced, he HAS TO GO! He was lucky to survive 186 and if he isn't up to the task, then he has no future at the MFC !

I woulda posted something if therer was anything worth posting Nothing interview.

Ox is talking generally, says Sylvia and Beamer would usually be walk up starts as captains but for the fact they played up off field. Says it's a statement. Still waiting for Grimes to come on. Will edit this post once he comes on.

For those that can't listen, will provide updates for ya. Look forward to hearing CAPTAIN JACK!

I feel sorry for you living on the GC mate. Lived there 3 years for uni, have an absolute hatred for the souless [censored] hole. Each to their own i guess. You sound like you have had a few Bundy's today Smithy. On the angry juice? As long as you are happy telling yourself you have made the right relocation choice and justify it to yourself by the weather forecast, then good on you. How is the rain this time of year?

Captaincy!

Is williams the tall blonde guy in the 5th photo down? If so, I agree, he looks the goods. Nice size!

IF we are unable to get a jumper sponsor by NAB cup, we should slap the Reach Foundation Logo on the front of the jumper, as a token of appreciation for all that Jim has given to the club. A way to say thanks. Then they could sell the jumpers and give the money back to Reach.

Place won't be the same without you big legend! Really sad he won't be heading us up next year, but his health is far more important!! Get well Jimmy, keep fighting!
