Now is it just that I have missed something or were Melbourne working on a clash jumper that still hasn't been announced along with sponsors. I mean what are the staff at Melbourne doing that aren't related to the game side of things ??

im not sure, i suppose that maybe they have put these issues on the backburn just a little bit, while they try to concentrate on more important things.

I really think that the clash jumper is a secondary issue to that of the major sponsor.

I would imagine that once we have this announcement up and going, then everything else will follow.

Perhaps chosing the Clash Jumper is one way the club could try a woo a potential sponsor (a very small part of the package!)

That is along my line of thinking because a naming sponsor will want to see the product that their name will be on

I was thinking a bit about this the other day, and I decided that the club is probably waiting for a sponsor so that, when they unveil the new clash jumper, there will be a sponsor on it. But then again, I thought they'd hold off the naming of the captain until we had a sponsor.

Based on last years debacle I could not see any sponsor beyond a funeral parlor signing for it.

If a sponsor aint going to sponsor the main jumper then they are not likely to sponsor a disregarded clash guernsey.

........so we are not going to have a new clash jumper?

Oh God, please not the same Clash Strip as last year.

Simply Terrible...

I seem to remember Scwabby saying at soe poi that THAT clash jumper was buried never to reappear. Not sure when it was..but I was there..lol.

Most likely the clash jumper wil appear during NAB preseason.

Cant see how or what difference any sponsor will have on design..as the parameters are far more reaching than a brand.

time will tell..

patience :)

Yes i do recall him saying it will be banished as the club wants to return to red and blue or something like that. i personally enjoy the designs with the mfc on the front as it looks distinguished and not like that rubble last year. Unfortunaltely I bought one in my search for a melbourne jumper in tasmania, it's like trying to find osama bin laden.

Do we even "unveil" it? I thought we just turned up to games wearing it.

We unveil it.

May as well put it on ice while we're looking for a sponsor.

It can then be unveiled with a logo.

If a sponsor aint going to sponsor the main jumper then they are not likely to sponsor a disregarded clash guernsey.

...except we've canned the silver clash jumper.

we played in a perfect alternate strip for years, bring back the royal blue for the clashes!

You still see plenty of those colours at the games and these jumpers have not been worn in nearly 20yrs (maybe more)

Posted

I liked the one in the pre season cup a few years back red and blue with the demon down the side. I still have it incidentally.


Posted
I hate it. Not really a big fan of the logo but that with a red background. Prefer the blue training top we are using with the small mfc logo in front.

better then last years at least, I actually don't mind it, I think the issue with the old demon logo jumper was that there was too much blue in it and it still clashed. Hence they should use royal blue in these jumpers.

Posted
IMO this logo is better:

Yes i Like this Logo & wish we could Keep it. Although i hate all clash

Jumpers & wish they would all disappear. I Don't Believe the arguements. I watched Black & White Footy Replays in the Mud & still knew who was who!!

Posted

As much as I prefer the logo you guys have there, it's a massive improvement on last years farce.

That said, I think you'll find that is just a training jumper and not the clash jumper - like how years ago we had guys wearing the old jumpers with LG as the sponsor in different fluro colours.

Posted

it does look suspiciosly like this huh!! lol..

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
