VW would be good, they've really taken off in Australia.

Reckon that would look pretty slick on our jumpers.  8)

My ex boss had a pretty silver one of those
I was at Flemington with him a few years back and asked him if I could follow him back to Spencer Street because I didn't know how to get back
The bastard put the metal to the floor and thought it would be a good idea to lose me.
Didn't work.  I overtook him in Spencer Street   :thumbsup
Loooovely car  :)

Mercedes-Benz/Daimler-Chystler would be nice
Lambo don't have an australian presence, only deal through importers

dont worry guys...just sit tight all will be revealed.  :thumbsup
Any whispers on who we are talking to or what industry sector the potential sponsor is from (eg: aviation)?

not aviation

finance and automotive
Man Utd sponsor AIG is the first half according to BF.

Leon Daphne eh.

Leon retired a few years ago and Nissan Australia now has a Japanese CEO. Leon was the only RFC connection in the executive I knew when I worked there 5 years ago. Leon used to get special permission from the Japanese to spend the time he did as RFC president. Knowing what I know about Nissan, having worked there for 14 years, I'd be very surprised if they came on board again. Of course thinks may well have changed since I was there.

Second in command was a Collingwood supporter though.
