What really surprises me is that there were no leaks!

Given the number of people involved in design, printing, manufacture, putting up signs, giving out coffee cups, drink bottles, etc etc keeping it quiet is nothing short of a miracle!

How the club kept control of all that I will never know.

But it is excellent that they did.

we're getting better at things eh ! :roos:

The new logo looks horrible when small across the top of the AFL website, it's just a blob and even worse than the old one for this use.

The training jumper is putrid.

Haven't had your coffee yet Clint? ;)

I don't hate the logo, I just don't love it.

With the logo on the AFL website, in the interview with the guy who made the logo he specifically stated that it needs to look good when small. It doesn't.

I actually agree with both your comments about the small version and the training jumper.

Really like the new logo in general though.

Agree with this.

I think a little tweaking could fix it. Currently it looks like an indistinguishable blob on the AFL site. They may have to just use the monogram.

I like the basic elements, but the fact it isn't working well when small is something that will need addressing.

I'd love us to do something creative with this 1900 club jumper. It's so simple it's perfect to me. I wonder what a modern version would look like.

Many of us hate white, but if there must be white due to AFL policy, having white either side of the centre laceup red strip (instead of blue) with a centred logo might look good. Obviously there can't be laceup guernseys anymore, but I'd replicate this in every other way - from the red around the neck line and arms.

Browsing on the Dee shop and saw this:

Looks like Daniel Cross's son. 469601665-daniel-cross-smiles-as-he-hold

If it is what a great idea...using 'in house' models.

And, he is such a cute kid.

Who can forget that delightful snap of Gus Brayshaw carrying the little guy on his shoulder's at Cross's last game.

don't think so...looks like Cross's arm creating a 'cradle'.

Hadn't noticed JH...his half portrait spoils an otherwise beautiful picture!

Disappointed in the training jumper. Loved last years and tried to get one mid year but they were all gone. Was told they were coming back and they have but with a massive graphic of the mcg below the monogram. Totally unnessacary. Won't buy it now. Everything else looks great though

I grabbed one of the Indigenous round jumpers that were on run out for $65 but the AHG logo is plastered all over the monogram.

Hey Steve (or anyone else). I'm having a problem with the email link to the shop. It just goes to "redirect link" and whirs away - apparently forever.

Solutions?

(Retired) UFC fighter Forrest Griffin in town for UFC 193 is on the bandwagon.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
