Sponsoring James

James Harmes sponsored in 2019 by the NSW Demons

We have sponsored James since 2016 and are delighted to sponsor James again this year. Over the years we have watched him develop into one of our very best players.

In 2018 James relished a new role in the Melbourne midfield which led to him becoming a key member of the midfield rotation and he wrapped up the season by finishing 3rd in Melbourne’s Best and Fairest. James has continued his great form in 2019 and we hope he finishes the year like he did last year.

You can read more about James in an interview with AFL Players here and listen to him in the Demonland podcast here.
