I went and picked up my a large training singlet no problem. On the rack the had run out of size 8 kids jumpers so I asked Tom at the desk and he went out the back and had mountains of size 8 jumpers. If they don't have the stock on the rack doesn't mean they don't have it, just ask.

Just a little polish for Tom at the desk too. He so helpful, He offered to put a number on the back, he showed me the new white training jumper (not for sale) & was telling me that they have sold so many jumpers that they have ran out numerous times of all sizes. He said the baby jumpers will be available early New Year.

I can't see the demon shop location being a priority considering our recent on and off field performances. Not an ideal spot but I imagine most people order online and can't really complain with rent free...

On a positive note I went in this morning and they seemed to have all sizes of guernsey's. The bloke at the desk was a champ and very helpful - had a great experience! Just out of interest, he was saying hat "1" has been the most popular number recently to go on the back guernsey's. Followed closely by "38" and the kids want "4".

Can i make 1 suggestion to the Demon Shop....

Any game we the MFC play at the 'G put a stall and maybe a couple of laptops available right at The MCC Members Reserve at Gate 2.

People will buy merchandise or order it if it is at the gate....Open again at half time....

Not everyone walks -past the current Demon Shop when parking is at the other side of the ground..

We are aligned to the MCC and i have always been amazed that MFC merchandise is not sold at the Members entrance.....

As part of the membership, why can't interstate members be given a code to use in an online purchase instead of a bloody paper voucher that you need to present at the actual shop FCS.?

The airport and souvenir shop ideas are great. The fact that such an idea was brushed over is just another example of how out of touch the previous admin(s) have been.

I know in my travels around the world I've bought plenty of soccer, basketball tops etc of cities I've been in as a memento, regardless of whether i support them or not. These are additional sales, and more money is good money.

If we want become the biggest club, we have to act like the biggest club. Promoting ourselves as the flagship of our game at airports can only bring good things.

I agree with all the feedback about the DemonShop but personally I don't have a massive problem with it. I think the location definitely costs the club sales but weighed against the cost of moving I don't think it's feasible to open a new store elsewhere. I've never had a problem with it (I usually go on match day anyway) and when I have been on a weekday I just park on Jolimont Tce and go for a short walk. The ideas about a "tourism" type stall at Fed Square or Tulla are great ideas but again unsure how feasible they might be?

One issue I do have is to do with the stock. I don't get why they don't stock things like DVDs of past games especially finals and big games etc. I realise these are done via Name A Game but surely the Demon Shop could stock some as well.

I'm 34 and i have a number 4 on the back...does that classify me as a big kid?

Haha I suppose so.. which isn't a bad thing!

The shop attendant said it's because Watts is really good with kids and goes to a fair amount of junior events.

You obviously haven't considered that souvenir shops sell what they want to, and what they think will sell.

Unless MFC runs the shop themselves.

Which is the same argument as moving the MFC shop out of the MCG.

    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

    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
