Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

The prob with the rectangle is it makes it look amateurly just stuck on as a last resort.

The problem is the Blue is their Brand Colour, without the rectangle and just Zürich written in white, is not their Logo

Saw the following on Twitter and I must say I agree. 

 Would you like to see a cleaner logo on the jumper preserving the red yolk?

Problem would be solved and it would all look much better if both the AFL logo and the Zurich were moved down and out by 25mm or so into the predominantly navy blue area, but probably not permitted to do thay due to some petty marketing thing the AFL has going - just like the one where 'all' clubs need to have a predominantly white clash jumper.

P.S. now that my attention has been drawn to it, the NB up the top is pretty freaking anoying as well!

Here are the new training guernseys without the blue background on the Zurich logo. Admittedly there is no red yolk on the jumper but it looks so much better.

That's a really cool jumper. Hope they sell it this year at the Demon Shop.

The logo looks much better without the background too.

this would make for a pretty decent 'clash' jumper if they made it in the 'colour tv-era blue' of the away guernsey

I'm happy with the current Royal Blue mirroring our regular jumper. I'm not sure Royal Blue would suit this training guernsey for some reason. Could someone with skills do a mock up. Looks great in the navy blue though.

I would however be perfectly happy to replace our regular jumper with this one in the extremely unlikely event that we were forced to change it at gunpoint.

Every company has a "reverse" logo in their specifications for placement on a dark background.

The circle could be either their corporate blue with a white Z, or a white circle with a blue Z as in the training guernsey. There's no rectangle integral to the Zurich logo.

All companies have guidelines on their logo. I work for a large multinational company and logo guidelines are very strict. I imagine that having two different colours behind the Zurich logo would be against company guidelines for using logo. Zurich is large global company that would need hq signoff for all use of logo. Unfortunately I can't see this changing

That was my understanding being a Global Company. I would have thought its use was only given under rock solid guidelines. 

But i am not up with the latest specs. It’s just nice to be sponsored by real companies. Energy Watch was a long time ago...

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
