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

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

    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.

    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.

    Yeah me too SD64 - however I've changed my reserved seats this year (only changed them two weeks ago) so that may be the reason??

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
