Here it is:

What do we all think of our NEW 2010 slogan. Looks ok i think, would have been inclined to use the top 4 or 5 young blokes maybe Grimmes, Watts, Trengove, Scully and LJ?? as they are why we are going to the footy this year too watch how they progress.

I love it !! Not hard to beat some of the [censored] slogans thrown up by other clubs in recent times.

I'm happy with it.

Will lead to a few "we put the fire out" retorts by opposition sides when we have a bad loss.

But even that is good and puts our brand out there.

As much as the "they know we're coming" slogan was arrogant, it still got the blues a lot of exposure and added to their story.

Hopefully ours will do the same.

Its also a theme I think we can build on in coming years as the side gets better.

That's fine, I'd just say that "we didn't start the fire."

Agree .... particularly the fact that we can build on it from year to year.

Already installed it as my pc wallpaper.

I think it is good. It's not too cocky unlike past opposition slogans. I think it will work well and agree with others that it's something to build on.

With regard to your selected players you would be inclined to use, I'm sure they will be used in other campaigns. Having established on field leaders such as Sylvia, Davey & Green is a good choice. They will be the ones leading from the front and meeting expectations this year. The players you mention still have to establish themselves and get more games under the belt. They don't really need to be the front men of marketing & promotion just yet in my opinion. The majority of supporters and members would know a bit about them already and the excitement they may bring very soon. I'm sure a few of them will be the next cab off the rank come the next promotional slogan. :)

Ages ago when we discussed promotion ideas etc .. be a few years back now.. I remember thinking I always thought the idea of the imagery of our dynamic demons marraied to The Doors...come on Baby light my fire would work well.. Well here's a fire !! :)

Good to see then doing something !! Go Dees

Yeah fare call might be a bit much too advertise kids that havn't even played an AFL game yet. I agree its something to build on. Hopefully they earn the right to be "poster boys" next year. Go Dee's

Copy the pic link and add [ img ] and [ /img ] either side of the link in your post.

For example the link you provided, I simply copied that link (http://etc etc...)in your post and added the [ img ] at the front and [ /img ] at the end of the link.

For those talking about the players - I think on the website it rotates them through.

At the moment on mine it has Jurrah, Davey and Mcdonald.

Same goes for me. Very good.

Not bad but Brad struggles to pull off the hard man. It looks like someone has knocked off his chocolate milk.

That's what I call strategic marketing. demon_smile.gif

Or anal retentiveness demon_tongue.gif

But seriously, all players should have either had socks up or down, and hands by their side or crossed, not a mixture of both. It's very distracting to those of us who suffer from obsessive compulsive behaviour (and is ruins the balance of the photo)demon_wink.gif

Maybe he's OCD for having his socks halfway up.

And Dandee, I actually laughed at that. Good call.

If that obsessive compulsive behaviour reaches high heart beat excitement distraction for the like, the marketing may have arguably worked to a degree.;)

Just ask Mrs. Silvagni.

Didn't even notice the socks - what annoys me is the change-up of the font!

Haha - spot on! I'm a graphic designer and the first thing i wondered was why is "the fire" in a different font to "has started?" It should have all been the same or "fire" should have been the only word in flames. Sorry......weird I know but I have to say, I love it! Reckon it's a good choice of players too!

I love it. It stays in-house and doesn't make reference to the competition (THEY KNOW WE'RE COMING!)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
