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.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
