White is for the umpires - shove them back in it.

A century ago our players wore 95% navy with a red collar & front trim. That & the reverse are perfect non-clash options.

The AFL are keen to get us up & running in 2014.

Allowing us to scrap the white & a yes to the red/navy trim could happen whilst they are nuturing us.

REB & NAVY ONLY!!!!!

TU Clashes often dont really exist. but to think that Messendon remove theres by that ridiculous grey is just as.

My point which , I note you waft over, again, is that the effort s they make are not congruent to those we are made to do.

We are to wear white,...they fudge a grey.. Its a Joke. The rules even more

No, actually I've covered that point.

Grey is considered a light colour by the AFL. They want clubs to have light and dark options. Essendon's home jumper is dark, obviously, so they use a grey alternative as their light.

Melbourne's home jumper is dark, so we need a light jumper. We chose white. We once chose a non-white option, remember the silver abomination from a few years back? No one liked it.

I'm sure we'd all like it if we could wear the home jumper every week. But we can't. Last week's Port-Carlton game involved a clash of jumpers and the outcry was notable. The AFL wants to avoid clashes. By asking each club to have a light and grey jumper, they avoid clashes. Essendon has grey, we have white, but the outcome is the same - both are light jumpers to provide alternatives to the dark home jumpers.

This sums everything up perfectly.

And yesterday, both Carlton and Richmond got away with wearing their dark strips! Carlton had the white shorts, so were presumably the "away" team. Where was their white jumper??

The AFL is a joke...!!

If you truly wants what is best for your wife surely you need to convert her to the Melbourne Football Club.

Also think of your children, half Demon and half Hawk \, this combination could produce little Messendon or Collingwood supporters and nobody would want to see that!

But back to topic, the MFC is now Blue, Red and White? Serious a white jumper IMO is a joke, The MFC should only use its team colours and only when it needs to just change the tone to a lighter colour or switch from mainly red to mainly blue as needed.

It is my understanding the Away Jumpers are really a marketing / sales thing anyway, So maybe we just need a jumper with Roos face on it. I just get the feeling they would sell in large numbers and may help to pay his salary LOL

Hey Big Frog give me a break. How do you think I go trying to convince the family to follow the Dees these days when the Hawks just keep on playing finals? Short answer no frigging hope and unfortunately this is being replicated in many households and will bury the club if we don't turn it around ASAP.

Yellow tends not to clash with navy blue.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    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
