Scroll down to the "AFL Round 1" box and you'll see that the old MFC logo is still being used. Did the club send out a press release to all media outlets informing them of the new logo and re-branding? This is not good for branding. I have also seen the old "Melbournefc" logo used on Sports Tonight quite often, as early as a few days ago.

I just Tweeted to Cameron Schwab about this also. It's not very good on the club's behalf. I'd be all over that if I was part of the marketing/branding department.

    I have seen Fox Sports use the new logo in the NAB Cup, they're obviously up to date with proceedings. If the old one is being used it's not the clubs fault. All media outlets would have been given the update through the AFL itself.

    Laziness by foxsports.

    Not the most pertinent issue for the club...

    Definitely laziness or delegated job... Half the logo's are cropped incorrectly...

    The flip side is, the new emblem is just that its a club emblem not a simple logo. I have no problems with media using the square logo for small logo related type things. Use the emblem on bigger signs where the detail can be adequately shown. Otherwise its a tiny little few dots of incoherent red and blue bits.

    Really guys? One of the most important part of branding is consistency. They ditched that logo last year. The opinion some of you seem to have is the very mentality that has held this club back for a while (no offense). I'd be vigilant if I had the power, and I'd demand that the logo be changed to the up-to-date one ASAP.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
