Guernsey Round is BACK!

Recommended Posts

This weekend we want all Melbourne supporters to wear their guernsey to the game.

Whether your footy jumper is brand new or a collector’s item, we want to see the stands packed with red and blue.

Every customer who purchases a guernsey from the Melbourne Megastore on the day will receive a free player badge.

I don't know about everyone else, but every round is guernsey round for me.

Same here. I like the idea though, we'll try and flood the MCG with red and blue - might annoy the Tigers a bit.

I've always been a scarf-wearer, and like to bring extras so friends can be Demons for a day (I'm subliminally wearing them down) but couldn't really afford a guernsey until recently. At least, not at the same time as forking out for Debt Demolition!

But I've got one now, and it'll be on pre-game, game, post-game, and any other game I get to. See if you can spot it at the Carlton-Essendon game, I'll be in the bluest of the Blue seats, should stand out nicely.

Wear mine every week.

And not necessarily at the games. :D

Every Monday after a win, you'll find me wearing my footy jumper...number 15 :)

I've got one for each of the last 6 years -- your extras can borrow them.

We'll be out in force!

I have a 2010 jumper but never wear it to the footy. I wear it to footy training, having a kick with the boys and when I am trying to get a rise out of my cycling mates. The only bloke on beach road with an AFL jumper on. They make great wind vests....

I don't know about wearing a guernsey, last time I wore mine I was called a ' sad old man ' by one of the those foxy young at heart cougars up at the Redlegs.

Got my red clash jersey last week. #8 for the Chippenator. My old man in his late 50's still wears his dees jumper each week. I too will go down this path one day!

Eth - you should wear it after EVERY game. I used to wear my jumper to school probably twice a week regardless of the weekends results. At least I can sit back when we win a flag and act how I feel appropriate knowing I was there when we were down, and still showed my true colours to the public. Couldn't think of 1 person that I know through school (and that is some years ago now!), and even at my local footy club, that doesn't know who I barrack for!

    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
