  • 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.

really?

Hence my "get out clause" of "but that's just me, I fear". However, if you elongate that WB logo El Greco style, hold it at arms length and half close your eyes...

beat by = much DemonOK

So there a at least two!

OD, are you on the double malt this early in the day? I mean, you can't even use the typo excuse as the X and K are nowhere near each other on the keyboard ;-)

Great marketing campaign, well done MFC.

I dunno,I loved the old school 70's/80s demon the best, but this one is OK

I still have coasters on my desk with the second logo. Rather old, worn and well-used. (Bit like me, I suppose! LOL)

the shape of the badge looks like an acorn .. I think they could've done better with that part.

Yep. Reminds me a bit of an upside down beanie...

Looking at those you would have to say we have been confused for some time.

We must be close to holding the record for Logo changes.

OD, identity confused?

surely it stems from no real home base. just play from the MCG, which was ONCE home to WON footy team. not any longer.

..... we need a home base desperately, to consolidate our broad based identity.

or an up-turned demon beanie

It's going to look great on merch. Significant upgrade in that respect.

Agree with Clint that some small reference to Demons would've been good, but they are clearly full steam ahead with establishing the city connection and the design reflects that. Less alternate references.

It follows the KISS principle perfectly.

I don't mind the logo, but some slight reference to Demons possibly with little horns on the top or something would be better.

We should have two logos like the Cats, this one is great for formal purposes but we need a "Demon" logo for marketing to kids, especially on kids merchandise like tshirts, school bags, pencil cases etc

I like the whole new vibe of it and the promotion; old school, yet tougher & more urban. IMO cute little demon horns & pitch forks, etc. detract from that.



"Melbourne" really huge, good colours + MFC letters is what we need.



Of course it'll all mean squat if we get thrashed, but look fabulous if we win.

I like it. It's understated, but that's all it needs to be.

It's a pretty timeless style that should be fashionable many years from now. That's not to say there won't be other inceptions, but it's nice to have a logo that should be able to live into the future and complement other forms that may evolve along the way.

I might be the only one here but......Has someone transported me back to the fifties?

It looks like what I had on my duffle coat so many years ago.

It looks like crap and I was quite happy with the shield one

Don't like the new polos tho.

Daisy is one of the greatest assets this club has, she plays great football, is a great leader, has a passion for the club, can speak well in public, and is easy on the eye. The power of that combination in bringing in sponsors and new supporters, especially those of the fairer sex, is immense. Great to see the club involving her in the marketing and putting her side by side with the mens captain. Makes me proud to be a Dee with the initiative and passion we have shown for the womens game!

I don't understand why we always have red merchandise, blue merchandise with red would look far better.

Like Daisies top. Will be interesting to see if that is a womens top of an option for the blokes to.

More than just the logo itself, the launch of it gets space in the mainstream media. In the MFC's previous incarnation, this would have barely rated a mention. To me the launch shows we are back - well and truly - on the AFL media's radar. For me that is a refreshing change and can't be a bad thing.

    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

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
