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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    PREGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
