    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.

Clash Jumper

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 ??

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!!

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.

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
