Let's see how groin-grabbingly good this design is:

    When everyone votes for that one hopefully we can show the club that there IS a design we all agree on.

    MAKE THAT OUR CLASH STRIP JIMMY!

    It really is a fantastic Jumper, and obviously us fans really like it too!

    I hope the club sees this and can go with it.

    (And Titan, i'm glad you were brave enough to take up my suggestion ;) )

    This is a cracker! I have preferred the MFC logo than the Demon all along but this version is far more eye catching and a massive improvement from the Shizenhausen Silver Syndicate

    Love it. Would buy one for sure and I've never bought a clash guernsey before. I wanted to MFC logo so this is just what I wanted, no white.

    I'm a graphic designer for Freestyle design. And I have to say, I like the version above.

    It meets all the needs the supporters have asked for, but there are two points I would like to share with you.

    1. MELBOURNEfc might use this design as guideline, but there is no doubt any submitted design will be that of a professional designer. Who will want to give it a modern touch. Just watch that.

    2. This might not be anywhere near matching the AFL's 'sctrict' criteria.

    Keep in mind...football... has been around a while...just a tad longer than us apparently *wink*. That which sticks with the hearts of the football follower eminates from his/her understanding and appreciation of this game. Why a "need to go 'modern. I cant recall recall too many designs that have attempted a "popualrist's" inflection that have lasted any distance nor garnered any respect. In reality those (designs ) that stay with the supporters are those built upon the traditions of the respective club. They have credibility.

    This is only an observation...not a criticism :)

    we ARE the M F C !! ;)

    I completely agree and am not for modern designs myself. I was just letting you know what could happen.

    Top post by the way.

    My only criticism of it is that there are a few younger supporters that I've shown the picture to, that don't like it because it "looks too much like Carlton's." Those who know of our history, and also about Fitzroy's jumper, etc. obviously won't think that, but it might be something to consider.

    Melbourne kids who only hate Carlton cause their parents do, might also dislike anything that reminds them of that club.

    That's a good point Chook, however I do remember reading earlier this year that Carlton was scrapping that jumper anyway, so that problem might fix itself. Well, at least I hope so.

    (And Titan, i'm glad you were brave enough to take up my suggestion ;) )

    No worries 45. So far it looks like it was a good suggestion too, with 41 out of 42 votes going for it (97.62%). I hope that trend continues.

    I say after 100 votes we email the link to the club.

    I do hear your thinkings here. The clash jumper..is a clash jumper..it has a function to fulfill. Whilst an opportunity to put on a slightly different face I think there are still many many areas where the Demon Imagery is better suited. This paraphanalia and product ought to do enough ( if done well) to sate nay yongens heart's desie for all things DEMON :)

    Personally I like a footbal jumper to be a footbal jumper..not a calamitous collision of efforts neither accomplsihing as a roving billboard or a contrasting player's apparel.

    I think we can do both..promote the MFC and the fact we're Demons...just dont do it with a 'corny' jumper !! Players cant surely fell a lot of pride wearing somethig that looks like Reject Shop's pajamas !!

    yep, they will probably completely F$%# it up... ;)

    And having taken pure elegant effective simplicity and turned it into a overly convoluted complex ineffective mess...they can become an AFL midfield coach! ;)

    I wonder if these 'designers" are familiar with " Less is More " !!!

    even without the blue on the side (if the afl have poles up their *****) this would still be good

    question: has any club really ever had an alternate strip the people have liked?

    I Like that Jumper, if we are forced to wear a different jumper. The whole Clash Jumper issue pisses me off as i don't believe it is a major issue. It's just the AFL being Greedy

    Well, I reckon 68 out of 70 so far is pretty definitive. Hopefully some more votes come in soon, then I'll send the results to the club.

    I prefer the MFC logo but I think for this poll to be fair someone should knock up a version with Jimmy's demon on the front, it beat the white version of this jumper norrowly on the club website poll

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
