Sponsored Players
In 2020, the Demon Army decided to further support the MFC by sponsoring a player. That player was Ed Langdon and we were over the moon. Ed is stuck with us now as we intend to sponsor him for the remainder of his career at Melbourne.
In 2021, we were lucky enough to be able to include an AFLW player into our sponsorship package. We chose Eliza McNamara but when she got injured in 2022, we thought we should add another AFLW player so we picked Tyla Hanks.
Thank you to everyone who gets involved in our fundraising which allows us to contribute back to the Club.
