Hi JT

This may surprise you or perhaps not but the shade of blue does not worry me

Navy Blue, Blue black, royal blue I can live with them all.

It is the red that gets up my nose

we had a number of bright red colours that I was happy with.

it was when we seemed to be only able to produced reds that looked pink at night and on TV that got up me going.

Then we jumped to Maroon.

All I want is a bold bright red and darkish blue.

Fairly simple but we seem to make very hard work of it.

IMO this the one area where CS has been a total failure.

I have no idea what he has been trying to achieve.

I know its the red, and agree its not red, more maroon i just find a bit of a joke in it that every year its one of the first questions you ask about members packs ect

:is the red red or is the red maroon"

justified, doesnt bother me as much though

Goodness me, I thought this had been done to death? The red the club has sought for the jumpers is a deep blood red, similar to that observed on the jumpers from our most successful era. It's not a bright red, it's much closer to burgundy or maroon.

I'm not sure where confusion comes from. Execution of the red colour wasnt great in 2011, but was better

Jt this club has been a failure for the major part of the last 48 years, the constant jumper changes are a symbol of that.

The majority of clubs seem to have settled colours, when was the last time you saw Sydney or Essendon change their red?

I too find it a joke that the MFC cannot get the red in the jumper correct ( whatever that is these days )

Why do we have a different shade every year? and this year I am told the blue has changed why?

If the target is the colours of the 50's and 60's successful period then send the manufacturer an old jumper and say match this.

What is hard about that?

I prefer to wear red and blue

It is fairly simple I want it red not pink or Maroon

I agree OD it may seem stupid or trivial but the stupid thing is how difficult it seems to be to get something like this right.

So just wondering on what the optimal cook time for my card is, given my microwave is 900W?

There should be a 'Richmond' button on your microwave.

Still waiting. I am a "Dedicated Demon" with automatic rollover each year. I don't know why it should take this long.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
