Just telephoned the Demon Shop re: the EW sponsor and what will be done for supporters. The girl who answered said that they were actually in a meeting discussing it as we spoke. Said there's a few options being looked at, but most likely it'll either be a voucher for the club for a replacement or an iron-on for those who've bought the jumpers - bring the jumper in and they'll go over it with the new BOJ as they have with the current cover-over. She said to call back at the end of the week and they'll know, which I intend on doing.

(I figure this might mean there's a BOJ sponsor sorted this week too)

Hmmm, sent an email to the club shop about this very same issue earlier this afternoon. Interesting to note there are a few with the same concerns especially considering the significance of the Reach jumper. I bought 2 for my girls as Easter pressies - but gave them to them a week early for the first game. Then a couple of days later the EW saga started. Their logo tarnishes what is an otherwise perfect jumper.

Thanks heaps for the update. Are they suggesting they will swap over the jumper with a new one or just cover up if you already have one

I think she was suggesting they'd swap it in the event of the vouchers, not too sure though.

Hoping they just do a cover-over, it's both cheaper for the club and it means we get to hold onto the Reach jumpers.

The Reach logo alone should be on these guernseys along with #11 or #37. I was disappointed when mine arrived with EW logo on the back as I really just wanted the connection to the memory of Jim.

Supporters Should get the option to order guernseys without sponsors logos.

Yes please post updates as you hear them - I have 2 jumpers that need fixing. Jaded suggested I could get an iron-on patch from Spotlight or Lincraft but the jumper label says "100% Polyester - No Iron".

The best solution would be a new BOJ sponsor patch that goes on like the numbers, that they can put on in the shop if you take your jumper in. A replacement jumper is too expensive for the club IMO and I'd rahther live with the pain.

People should be able to buy all clothes without logos. I don't want to have to pay to be a walking billboard. It should be the other way around. If I'm advertising Nike clothing, I should get a discount on my merchandise.

Unfortunately its all part of the big bucks sponsors pay .. they pay to have their logo on jumpers supporters buy, as many will only buy a jumper every few years .. still see some Tooheys and LG ones floating around at the G

Can anyone shed light on whether or not it would be possible to get an 'iron-on' Reach Logo for BOJ as well? Legally is it okay to pursue this option yourself and have a local shop make one?

I'm thinking it'd look terrific and would be a good match dimensionally-wise (rectangular) once enlarged to go over the EW logo.

Thoughts, input?

went to the shop pre doggies game, girl said they will be allowing us to exchange jumpers when new ones come out, but the only problem is the new ones will have webjet on the front. i bought a reach jumper with No 11 out of respect to jimmy so dont really want to exchange for the new one. a bit annoying, would be good to just get a patch to cover and surely that'll be cheaper on the club??

War office called Demon Shop yesterday. They said they'd have replacements in around mid May and that a notice would be posted on the website.

Called them today, waiting for a call back - she said she's still not sure, they were definitely looking at a cover for the Reach ones though because of the special circumstances.

Thanks Striker. I hope the black tape I put on mine won't cause an issue with the cover option!

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
