nice, we will have a team photo without a sponsor. Well played Dees!

Wow, just shut the place down.

Breakdown of people who look at team photos:

99% fans of that club

1% people who googled the wrong thing

 

Humour HT! You almost nailed it...

Haha, ouch.

You guys...! /shakes head

Does this site have mods?

Yes.

Haha, ouch.

At least, I thought I did.
 

To the OP and others ready to leap out of windows. We do have a major sponsor, we are in the process of getting another.

It takes a lot to wake a sleeping Dinasour. Jimmy & co have done that and we still a long way to go. Think long term and help when asked.

Possibly.

Or possibly the emblem looks bad in small print...

FMD.

Hold the presses! We've got a thumbnail problem...........I think I'll slit my throat

DC I am fearful of raising the subject but here goes.

It appears that the maroon colour of last years scarf has now filtered into the 2012 jumper

Both the real one and the clash / away strip.

I can forgive CS of many things but what is it with the RED in MFC jumpers CS.

I have no memory of the MFC jumper being anything but blood red, the Blue has changed but what is it with the red?

The MFC must hold the record for the most changes to a jumper, it seems like we have had a new Red every year for the last 10.

FACTS: We have no major sponsor and the pre-season is 2 weeks away. We were in a similiar position the last time we were sponsorless

Fact ? hmmm.....Dont't let Energy Watch hear you say we have no major sponsor. Apparently they have tipped in $6M over 3 years thinking that they may be a joint major sponsor. But did lets facts get in the way of a good rant.

We are looking for a second major sposnor -I would fire CS and hire Harry Potter - - expelliarmus sponsor

maybe it is a conspiracy to gradually change the red until it is fucshia?

I hate it when you get to the latter half of a pringles tin, and you have to basically turn it upside-down to get the next one out.......problem is.....all the crumbs then come with it!

That is the worst. Pisses me off no end. And it's a simple fix too.

Not such a bad idea considering we played like a bunch of pansies last year.

This is the most amusing thread other than the training reports I have read in months. Gotta hand it to Praha for getting most peoples blood pumping again.

With the social media, it has been said and does ring true that the reasoning behind us not having the same support as other clubs is due to our lack of younger members. Well I am one of these younger members and follow the FB MFC group and they are reasonable active always updating subscribers with photos from training and important announcements from the club.

The issue I have is that people are complaining about the lack of free marketing through Facebook, twitter and alike. I think that you have to understand it isn't like putting an ad on tv or radio where it gets shoved into your face inbetween what you actually want to watch/listen to. To view this social media you need to have to search for it and subscribe yourself to it inorder to receive the I formation. I dont know where the opportunity lies to really utilise this media to advertise to the general public as the people that make an effort to follow these feeds are more likely than not already members and supporters.

In saying all this though Melbourne heart are alot more active in there FB page than the MFC but I put that down to them being right in the middle of a season.

Where's the part where you log back on to your other av to agree with yourself again, did I miss that post?

Yes, I'm still calling it an agenda.

You're right dandeeman. You haven't missed it. Not yet, anyway.

No way?

They are the same person?

That's disengenuous if true.

I love it when that happens, can someone let my wife know?

That is the worst. Pisses me off no end. And it's a simple fix too.

Haha - you're a clever man! :lol:

LOL.


I think the red on the jumpers is perfect. Much better than last year.

BUT IMO it aint RED

BUT IMO it aint RED

Well whatever colour it is, it will look completely different in person than on the TV...

I feel like I am labouring the point here.

Is it the same colour as last year's scarf?

If so I am very dissapointed.

That is Maroon IMO.

Don't like it.

Will I still go ?

Yes but I would not buy anything in that colour.

Did not wear last years scarf so it looks like the 2010 version will have to go round again.

 

Also nice to see those jumpers looking nice and purple/pink/fuscia again for the team photo. CS must have been too busy in China getting the huge sponsorship deal doen to worry about fixing the seizen jumpers! again, well done!

Wasnt our old nick name the fuscia's? sounds like an apt colour choice

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
