Well excuse me!

If you have to go to that much trouble to get it looking right on TV it suggests to me there is something wrong.

Most people won't change their picture that much to watch a game every other week.

Essendon's red looks fine as does St. Kilda, Adelaide and Sydney without touching the TV controls, why is ours Pink?

In the mean time I get lots of comments about the "[censored] pink dees"

Don't know about you but it sticks in my guts.

I just finished watching the replay of yesterdays game...i noticed 83 tackles.

i have a far bigger issue with the clash strip scenario (were we actually playing adelaide yesterday?) No wonder most travelling sides get thrashed.

Take a look at Carlton's shocker this evening!!!

I am not saying it is the major issue for 2011

However how come we are the only club with red in their jumper that looks pink on TV?

Keep your shirt on just a simple request.

The jumpers are pink. It's a fact. Anyone that says they only look pink on tv is deluding themselves and should go and get their eyes checked, it looks like a dark plum up close and a lot brighter pink on tv. I haven't bought the new one for exactly this reason. They look pink even in the Demon Shop. Simple fact of the matter is, the socks are the blood red that everyone is looking for and what the jumper should be, Cameron Schwab put out an article earlier in the season addressing the fact that they weren't the right red in the preseason but "hoping" to have it corrected by round 1. It has not happened. Anyone can clearly see that the jumper the team wore in the preseason is exactly the same colour now. And it's not right. What exactly is wrong with the same colour red that Essendon or Sydney use? So what if it's a bright red? At least it's identifiable as being RED not PINK. If Cameron Schwab or any other senior officials are reading these forums and monitoring members opinions, I think we should start actually hearing a response to this soon, it's only reasonable.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, my 2011 Dees jumper does NOT look pink.

Yes and in the same article that Cameron Schwab mentioned the preseason jumpers being the wrong red he specified that the first batch of jumpers for purchase were not the same colour as the playing jumpers and were in fact a different fabric.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
