2010 MFC Slogan


Daz's Dee's

Recommended Posts

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 was actually thinking the "THE FIRE" will be a continuing theme, with the "HAS STARTED" being interchangeable.

THE FIRE IS SPREADING...

THE FIRE IS ROARING...

etc etc.

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

Could be intentional. Notice that Syliva and Green are exact opposites with socks and arms, and Davey is a mixture of the two.

Then again I could be reading far too much into it.

Surely soon we will be referring to the MCG as the "Cauldron" or the "Furnace".

Brilliant!

(But Sylvia needed to pull his socks up)

Following tweet from DemonsHQ: "the reason is that Col plays with his socks down so we thought that would be appropriate".

Once you get to the banner version, rather than the poster, I reckon the font issue makes sense, better to have THE and FIRE same font when used on a single line, having the whole thing in flames would probably be overkill. Poster follows suit.

I would have loved to have seen an army of youngsters backing up the old guys, but maybe would have blown the photoshop budget.

I like it... It may have been either the Dalai Lama or Groucho Marx who said "No-one ever went broke underestimating public taste" so this is good.

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.

yes fire has started now it's time to awaken thr sleeping demon

hmmm, perhaps a bit of 'The Prodigy' before home games?

Yeah like it Firestarter and Highway to Hell before the game sounds good.

When reading these posts and seeing the banner version, I thought exactly the same thing! Works in the horizontal format.

Am loving all versions! Are these the profile pics taken out at Casey a few weeks ago?

As long as the escalator isn't a metaphore for the AFL ladder I like it. :)

To travel down the said escalator is to taste & feel the Rich tapestry that is the Melbourne Football Club Demon.

The AFL Ladder is merely a representation of our workplace, that displays our conquests.

And remember Fire always points to the sky & heat will always rise.... :)

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
