    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 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.

could titan uranus or whoever made that awesome one int his thread of the MFC logo, try it with the demon logo because i agree with nudge- jimmy would want a demon in it- and lets face it..the demon could be in the navy blue with white outline..identical to this jumper, with navy blue trim and sides.

it would look good.

I understand that the demon might be at the forefront of Jim's mind, however the point of this thread was to take the jumper with the MFC insignia and find out how popular it is. It was 45hotgod's idea in another thread, and it shows how popular this jumper is amongst the Demonland fans. If you prefer the demon, you can vote for the second option in the poll.

welll i emailed the club yesterday and have received a reply

this is just part of the email...i greatly appreciate this fast reply and have responded to the club to thank them and complement them on their hard work

It is a great Jumper but it's not just a matter of choosing the best

from a design point of view. We have to consider possible clashes,

balancing heritage elements with elements that appeal to youth, the AFL

who until recently had completely closed the door on a predominantly red

design and Reebok, our apparel partner, who have to be comfortable with

the design from a retail sales point of view.

We are working with all parties at the moment to try and get the best

outcome for the Club and our supporters.

The design you provided me initially was one we forwarded straight to

our designers for consideration because it was so good.

Kind regards

EDIT: The one I emailed initially was the red and blue swapped around...that was a couple of months ago before this design was shown

again, the fact that I was remembered is great and i am grateful

good to see nick well done

i think thought that the predominately red doesn't clash at all with as we will obviously wear white shorts with it..

Essendon, Brisbane, Fremantle, St.Kilda, and no one wears a clash jumper against sydney, and no one wear's their away shorts (which i think they should) against the swans, and the swans should wear white shorts when they play away- i dont care how stupid it looks.

Great jumper, hopefully the club fight to get what the fans want.

If this gets a pass from the AFL, as if it wouldnt, it's very similar to the same jumper that was OK'd for years as a clash jumper, and it's more of a change than the Bombers' one anyway, perhaps the club could put a similar poll on the website to get a more universal finding

I sent both a link to this thread and a picture of the jumper to Martin Cox.

He replied:

Thanks for your feedback. The Club has received lots of feedback regarding our clash jumper, and we are developing a design that takes all of this feedback on board.

I hope he's telling the truth.

The thing i like about this jumper is that it isn't trying to be over-the-top in it's design. A lot of clash tops are just so out there from their normal one that it looks horrible and bugs the supporters, this one maintains the historical link to the MFC and the colour link, while moving far enough away from our home strip to appeal to consumers who wish to buy it.

Plus i can picture it on the boys and know that they will be playing for the RED AND BLUE!

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.

Yeah... as soon I saw the logo I instantly thought of Carlton for some reason... The C seems to stand out so much

104 - 4... What are the 4 Alternatives?

I read somewhere that the AFL are looking for a predominantly white or silver alternative strip... I assume we look at who this would clash with.

Sydney, StKilda (remember this years? they looked MORE the same) That's probably what the AFL's argument would be...

Non white away/clash jumper with FFC monogram

So.

I presume our proposed red jumper is a shoe in ?

Hmm.

Youd have to think so..logically...But we are taking the AFL !!

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
