I hate to admit it, but all the goings on has me looking at the new logo in a new light. It suddenly feels very...corporate. Lifeless. Its obvious attempt to be purposeful and meaningful results in it being very bland.

I'd be in favour of going back to simplicity once we dig oursevles out of this hole.

    It's a fantastic logo...far better than anything we've ever had. Let's leave it there.

    Love the logo, and as said before, concerns over it are the least of our issues.

    The Logo is fine just should replace the EST 1858 with 186 POINTS as a reminder of last Saturday and replace with Premiers 20?? when applicable

    Leave it alone. Looks Classy. Bigger problems to worry about.

    Logo stays. i just bought a Beanie, so it is locked in.

    That settles it.

    We still need a new demon logo... put it on some scarves etc, i'm sure kids would like a little devil caricature more than the logo we have. Hell even i would and im in my 20s.

    Let's not allow the events of the past week be the catalyst to slam every little thing about the club!

    Corporate my a**e, why because some people wearing white collared shirts drove the development of it?

    All the elements are drawn from the history of the club, and the emblem is terrific.

    So is it now open season on anything Schwab has implemented at the club is it?

    Get a grip FFS!

    The logo is fantastic.

    The club went from no brand to a little brand. And now you want to get rid of a logo and a club branding that has arguably contributed to what is said to be the biggest sponsorship deal in the club's history?

    Schwab's position has been to reinvent the brand. He did it, and did it well.

    said before will say it again. Our new emblem is just that an emblem. It is not a small little logo that goes next to the name melbourne on the tv scoreboard. it should be used on 'big' things - walls, banners, backgrounds, leave it on the jumper. The little red 'v' on top of blue symbol that we all have as stickers on our cars is our long term 'logo' there is a massive difference. Both are still required.

    It's an EMBLEM!

    Totally Disagree, this is the first plank on our way back to having Pride in ourselves again. It stays.

    Like very nearly all in this thread, I really like the 'emblem'.

    Nothing else to add.

    I do realise this is basically irrelevant this week but I agree - a logo/emblem should be simple, not try and signify the entire history of the club... in which case they should have left space for the image of a long-suffering dees supporter fashioning a noose out of his official 2011 scarf.

    I quite liked the last 'back to basics' emblem we had - that's just me... stuff forking out $$$ to graphic designers. B)

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
