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.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
