Great work linking the clash jumper to the MCC too.

Something I never considered.

(it's something we can lean on in future too, as justification in not budging on the design, if need be).

Both jumpers look great.

I like the way Thomo put it; Melbourne is football.

The clash strip is as good as it can possibly be. Its the the traditional jumper with only as much white as is required. This board just keeps on kicking goals.

Pretty much agree with that

Given white was a given, this is the best design by far I have seen (assuming we are allowed to wear navy shorts). White kept to a minimum.

A very professional job

Loving the direction the club has taken.

Whether you like the new jumpers, or the new emblem, or whatever topic... the club is explaining the reasoning behind everything we're doing.

Feels good to be a part of a club that going places on and off the field.

I like both of the jumpers, wasn't sure about the mini Chinese flag on the back, but it'll be a new tradition, and it'll grow on me as more stars are added.

Clash jumper looks like a good clash jumper, can't complain.

Great job to all involved.

Agree with all this.

Well done MFC on not just releasing a few photos here and there but actually making it an event and explaining the significance behind it all.

At first I was skeptical of the small red yolk but it is growing on me and I love the new collar.

Great stuff.

EDIT: I love the clash. Very tempted to buy both jumpers next year.

Love it! Going to be the first jumper I'll be buying since 1997 (my current Melbourne jumper has gone from red to pink...)

I guarantee we will be the first club to bring the collar back. You watch it come back over the years now. About time we set a trend.

I think the stars are quite similar to what I've seen used on some soccer guernseys.

Can't remember where but I do recall seeing it in places before.

Either way, this symbolism is brilliant.

It lends the whole concept integrity and something to stand for beyond just "it's always been like that."

Awesome jumper, I think the clash strip is a good result to. Hopefully they actually have a proper long sleeve jumper with the red cuffs to, instead of those crappy 3/4 sleeve that they have had for a while.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
