I think that the new strip looks good.

And welcome back to the Demon to our jumper. I honestly missed it.

Thank god it has no grey or white on it. Last years clash strip was a farce. Pure rubbish. Whoever passed that should be sacked or should step aside...

Oh... Wait... :lol:

Have both and wear whichever one the AFL says clashes the least.

I am sick of talking about the effing clash strip...

the clash jumper as played in yesterday's intra club game, looks great. ( some great pics on demonology).Either red and white clash jumpers are definately a goer for me. Could have been a better looking DEMON but a demon none the less !!!

This isn't by any means the most pressing issue at the moment, but a little pet peeve of mine.

I really don't like the Reebok jumpers.

They are loose, baggy and have that stupid shape where the back and front hang lower than the sides. For a skinny team like Melbourne, the problem seemed to be accentuated even more.

Not only do the jumpers look terrible but when they are so loose it makes it easier for opposition teams to grab them. To be honest I didn't want to buy a new jumper last year because they looked so terrible. Melbourne seemed to have gone backwards from their Asics jumpers which were much better fitting.

Now compare these with the Puma jumpers which are a better fit and look great as well as with the new Adidas jumpers which fit well but look a little odd (but still better).

When Port Adelaide announced their new clash jumper I got excited because the Reebok design looked to have improve, but after seeing the photos from the intra-club game it looks as though Melbourne may have the same design as last year.

Port's new terrible clash jumper with good Reebok design.

Melbourne with same old design?

you're right. i notice these little things too. and you can tell these two are different designs because the neck is different.

I think the best jumpers are the puma ones that hawthorn and brisbane wear with the pointy neck.

I bought one of the new ones last year and the material isnt as good either

I agree.

Strewth...I can't believe some people on this website. This is a vast improvement on what's gone before so stop your whingeing.

I love the monogram edition too, but I see this as a modern upgrade that even looks good in the white version.

We wanted the demon. We got the demon. The monogram makes a great training jumper.

Let's unite and worry about something that matters.

These are our training jumpers, the club isn't going to buy the good jumpers until we have a name to go onto the back of it. These jumpers would be the cheapest they could get to do the job.

Surely we don't have to pay for Jumpers? MFC would surely be paid to wear them by the apparel sponsor (Reebok)?

I guess Reebok could be giving us old stock knowing they have to make a heap of new ones soon when (hopefully) we get a sponsor.

I really don't like how the Demon touches the AFL logo, really shouldn't be that close IMO

im not worried about this. i think any smaller or lower and the demon would become too insignificant.

and to Clint B, i think it's fine. i wasnt there on sat, but id rather the demon be a little bit harder to see from a far, than have a white outline.

the red and blue aspect remains intact.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
