White, it looks better. The aim of a clash jumper is to provide an alternative to the colours you usually wear.

But I'd be happy with either.

I'd vote for a lump of dog [censored] on a potato sack over that horrific thing we wore last year.

White jersey got my vote out of the two.

Just looks better! Red one seems too lost and training jersey feel.

Saying that, i wish the club would just grow a pair and make a decision and not give a voting system as we all know how it ended up last time.

The advertising of why white is an option is a sign of it being favoured by the guys running the show.

I don't like to, but I prefer the White also.

Also, why was there an article saying we'd revealed our clash jumper when the club is not conducting a poll seeing which one to use?

I think the White is a classier jumper (if you can call it that) and hopefully would sell more. The return of the invincible whites, only this time it would be the "Invincible Demons"

"Saying that, i wish the club would just grow a pair and make a decision and not give a voting system as we all know how it ended up last time."

If that's it then that's it. But none of this "members voted for this" fast and loose crapola.

However. On the areas where you can engage your membership, on something as fundamental as the branding of the club, wouldn't you do so? And no, a poll on a website most assuredly does not count. In fact it's at the top of the list of reasons for the 'result'. Along with communication.

The other thing is, we've already had a red and blue clash strip with a demon in the middle, perhaps we should look to a new jumper (or use both, i see no problem using three)

I prefered the old red clash jumper rather than this one. Personally I dont like the new demon logo thats printed on the top.

The new red one seems to be lacking another element, while the white one has the blue 'V' which seems to look alot less like a training top.

Both these jumpers look good and don't be supprised if we see both this year. The white Jumper we will wear against Essendon, I remember when we had the old mainly red jumper against Essendon you could tell who was who.

Since the option was thrown to the members it has been 50/50 and couldn't be split. For me the red is plain and the white looks better.

I really like both these jumpers. We'll wear red against Carlton and Port, white against Essendon.

Happy with either (depending on who we play).... definately no clash now

    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
