Bringing Back the Demon

Mousey, I don't mean to be rude in saying this, but does 'my bad on that', is that 'y-gen' for 'sorry, my mistake?' And if so, why don't you just say the latter?

haha sorry mate. Yeah your spot on what it means slang wise. Played basketball my whole life so it gets bandied around a fair bit, i actually never say it , not sure why i typed it lol

"My bad" is an old term from basketball for "my fault", essentially accepting the blame for your bad judgement.

Obviously being a sporting term it is short & sharp.

Over time it has translated into hip hop culture by association and then in turn popular culture.

I first started hearing it around 1996 (back when Penny played for the Maigc) in basketball related media but I'm sure it was around long before that.

Thanks guys.

I loved this logo. Had no idea why they changed it. I haven't bought any merchandise with the new logo on it. Haven't bought a guernsey since '06 so might get one soon but would like one with a different logo to be honest.

Yeah I like this one too EXCEPT hate the white background. Would love to see it in blue. We are RED and BLUE...NO WHITE !!!!!

I'm 21 and agree with everything Enforcer has said.

Both can be used.

I wouldn't buy anything with the old Demon logo simply because now we've changed it, the 90's demon looks old and dated - everything always does when it gets changed.

The Demons need to create distinct markets and use the logos wisely.

It represents our heritage and our history as the oldest club.

That makes no sense.

The face should ALWAYS be white, to match the white numbers on the back of the jumper. It would also bring out the demon face when we play in the red away strip.

Well a pack of 22 cigs..

lol nah jks, i love our jersey, but a logo is a whole different story. A logo should say something and represent more than showing people exactly what we are wearing.

IMO the jumper is a massive part of what the Club's about.

Not being mean and picky mate but im guessing you are on the side of the older generations of supporters?

I am 23 years old and i wouldnt be caught dead parading that logo on a piece of clothing , only a scarf, and thats about it.

Like Enforcer, I'd rather have the 'red and blue V logo' on gear than a cartoon demon.

I think its a known fact that the biggest problem our club faces going forward is attracting new members and kids to our footy club. The current logo will NEVER do this, im not sure if im the only one but when i was a kid the demon logo attracted me to the club to start with then my love for everything to do with the club flowered from there. Kids love logos! I have no problem with the club having that MCC/MFC logo on letter heads and business needs.

But.. yeh i stand a firm believer the current logo must go and we must bring back the demon :)

That's why we do have the demon, and the demon's used in that manner.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
