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:

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?

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
