  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

Love the new logo. New era for the Dees and hopefully a better one. Very simple. We're the oldest club and Melbourne is our city and we're lucky enough to have the name. We should do everything in our power to brand our name and club around Melbourne and hopefully get more people on boared expecially people who are trying to pick a team and we're the first one they see. Very smart move and hopefully a step forward in more members

The shade of red is also great too

Remember the days of the totally mismatched ight blue + piercing red.. it was like startng into the sun

Lol, very good.

Try being profoundly colorblind like myself and the twin.

Those light blue jumpers you are referring too, were brought about by the requirements of early color TV, but to me, when viewed in sunlight, its went all 3D, and it felt like my eyes were being sucked out of their sockets.

Unpleasant.

The new logo looks nice and simple, and i love the marketing. We have a great team behind the scenes at the club now.

Its just a very quick rough mock up and Im sure truly talented artists can come up with something far more today as an application of the logo etc

But this is the kind of iilk that has impact.

Fantastic to see the club going down this track :rolleyes:

What do you guys think this means? New logo, perhaps?

Great to see Daisy with Jonsey on the promo. Our two captains!

Daisy is a great role model and someone to aspire to for the little 'aussie kick' girls ...might make them little Demons (and convert parents and siblings) :rolleyes:

Today a foreigner or non-AFL follower gets off the train at Flinders street station, they view the logo and receive a free coffee. But who is this from... the city of Melbourne?

A HUGE improvement over the pre-existing logo and looks great to us MFC supporters, but it hasn't quite hit the mark as it needs a greater influence to suggest that it represents a sporting club.

You could be right 'ignition'

I'm thinking it might be a 'drip feed' promo campaign with more bits to come that will paint a bigger (mfc football & demons) picture.

It's pretty basic. There's not a lot happening with it, such as the old one. I'm the same as ADC on this.

I hated the old logo.

It's with profound relief that I view this one. Looks good.

Less is more when it comes to logos - something Schwab seemed not to understand.

I liked the current (or now old) one. Liked the recognition it displayed and it's meanings, as did many here who may have changed their previous views all of the sudden.

I disagree, ignition. Look at some of the most recognizable logos in sports:

Well done Melbourne

Tbh I didnt mind the 'complex' logo but really like the new one.

Im impressed with the cleverness of the 'stealth' roll out , the engaging of the town , the connect to the people.

Kudos.

A big FU to the AFL website though for spoiling the build up.

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
