New MFC logo branding

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.

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
