Mercedes Benz Vans - New Sponsor
Lucky enough to be online and I saw someone posted a picture of a new partnership .. It was taken down pretty quick but looks to be true. Waiting for the official announcement but this is pretty big apparently.
Bring back the biff

Re: Mercedes Benz new sponsor
Makes sense, people have been stealing Mercedes from the eastern suburbs and driving them west for years!!

No more comments about 'bloody Mercedes drivers' then.

Well, technically it's only Mercedes Benz van drivers that are ok. You can still have a crack at the toff in their C-Class.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Is there any link to this announcement as yet? Can't see anything about this online as yet (other than from the best source of Bulldog info - Woof)
Anyone in the know care to share more other than the OPs reference to a pulled down story?

Shane Delia put a post up on FB announcing the partnership, including an official image with Gordo, Bevo & Bont. Took it down but it escaped into the Internet wilderness before he could.
Now Stevo has confirmed there'll be an official announcement so I would bet my house it's all legit.

Thanks Comrade.
Just saw the Stevo segment on Seven Sport referencing the Mercedes sponsorship and showing the above mentioned picture with Bevo, Bont and co.. Gordo and a Mercedes staffer both holding up our jumper showing the Mercedes logo on the lower back side of our jumper.
The 2018 reference across the two jumpers probably implies that the arrangement kicks off next season.

Re: Mercedes Benz new sponsor
Pretty huge to get a car sponsorship and to align ourselves with a brand like Mercedes!!
Not exactly 'on-brand' traditionally ! - but maybe where we are headed!
I can just see it.....The new Mercedes Bontempelli.

Unfortunately drove one in my uni days (for free). Crap Electricals. My Boss has one now and has suffered the same fate!
One of the best things I saw ever on the roads was last week when one Volvo beeped at another Volvo driver on the road! Didn't think they were capable of detecting poor driving!

Re: Mercedes Benz new sponsor
I always thought it was Volvo drivers that copped it.
Mercedes were always class and driven by professional people not retired people that go at 40 Ks an hour (Volvo)

Re: Mercedes Benz new sponsor
I'm assuming Mission will have front of the jumper still. Merc to take the back of the jumper maybe?
