This club is going to be about as exciting as a wet paper bag.

That mascot looks to me like he's going to drown himself in the ocean any minute now, and why wouldn't you when you've been given the ever original name of Gazza from the Gold Coast :rolleyes:

Sobering to think that this nothing club is streets ahead of MFC in the eyes of the AFL. Out with the old, in with the new! Out with the bath water and...oops!

It's clear the Gold Coast Schoolies, West Sydney Mountaineers and maybe even Sydney Swans, are going to suck the funding and talent pool dry over the next 5-10 years minium.

This is the price we pay for a truely national game in areas where marketing penetration is paramount, and the human supporters, well, they can like it or lump it!

Technology is such that the crowds can be painted in, anyway.

I still can't believe that Gold Coast Suns never even got a mention as an option.

I'm not saying it's the best or even putting my word in for it. But it surely had to be considered, what with being the number one positive thing people associate with the Gold Coast.

I don't really understand why any nickname idea has to be associated with the Gold Coast. Look at the existing clubs. There aren't too many Lions in Brisbane, or Hawks in Hawthorn, or 'Blues' in Carlton. What I'm trying to say is there isn't a necessity to have a nickname that goes with the location. So, for some examples, it could be the Gold Coast Kings, or Gold Coast Chargers. Really, anything's better than the Gold Coast Nothings, as they have now become known.

don't you think that alot of the current nicknames for afl teams have been born out of history, rather than made up for comercial reasons? we are the melbourne football club. as are the carlton football club, etc. the 'demons' nickname is a monika that stemmed out of history, like the redlegs, the fushias and the invisible whites before that. i say let the GCFC grow their own nickname, so that it means something when it eventually sticks.

I hope the whole team fails misserably and get no supporters or members. That would teach the afl for screwing around with the competition

Thats rather blunt, but I agree.

Yeah I guess so. But the board could have at least had some better ideas.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
