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.

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

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.

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

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)

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
