If this is the new clash jumper its a shocker. By why should we be surprised.

Business and the market place prevails. The trump stone.

Merchandising and branding wins every time over good design and good taste.

I have to say that I have disliked the new logo from day one. Okay as a logo on a mug, glass or coffee cup but no much else.

It is better than the "Blazers"!

About the same OD. Not better

Any design that wanders from our colours (Red and Blue) is a fail in my book and a mockery of our heritage.

Within red and blue its hardly a stretch to create an amazing jumper that doesn't clash.

I agree.  (I'm one of the seemingly minority who really liked the old one -- was classy, and full of meaning.  But, I concede I'm in the minority on most things!  LOL)

Yes, I am also in the group that liked the old demon logo. However, this is my supporter bias and the importance of tradition and linking with the past.

These decisions are not based on the whims or views of supporters.

Phew!  So, it's not just me?!!  Thanks, Daisy!  When I see it, I see squirrels!


I do not understand why we dont just have an inverted clash strip, predominantly red with the blue V?

I do not hate the new one but I do not love it either, was the same feeling with all out clash jumpers.

if we change from demons to squirrels it would be perfect - lol

FFS I maintain if Gold Coast can wear red against sides who have dark coloured jumpers I see no reason why we can't wear red with a blue yoke, white shorts and red socks.  We are red & blue

It’s a grand old flag
It’s a high flying flag
It’s the emblem for me and for you
It’s the emblem of the team we love
The team of the Red and the Blue
Ev’ry heart beats true
For the Red and the Blue
And we sing this song to you (What do we sing!)
Should old acquaintance be forgot
Keep your eye on the Red and the Blue

Unfortunately, the sponsors and corporates don't know the words. 


That is deadset the worst thing i have ever laid eyes on.

It is worse than that grey thing we wore.

It makes me want to puke.

You are missing one important item PSD.

GCS are one of the love children and  the MFC have no power and don't matter.

Sadly you are trapped in a by gone age RB.

In the 21st Century all that matters for little, it is all about the money.

here are some alternatives i have saved over the years from places like here and big footy.

no reason we couldnt be in any of these - or even have 3 (blue/red/white)

i feel sick

this has actually turned me off the AFL in a big way

ffs

158 years and we have to wear THAT next year? jfc

I do like the new logo and shield but it looks terrible on a white back ground jumper.

Will the club ever get the away Guernsey right?

Losing plenty of sales over years

Yet another fail.

Mate why even put up anything that  has Red background. You know that  it has to be a white back ground.

Absolutely nothing every be as bad of those.

First point is it was created by a management that will go down as the worst in our 158 year history.

We Demonlanders are a masochistic bunch, aren't we?  Keep banging our heads against a brick wall and wailing against this same injustice every year!  Do we really think anyone in power actually gives a rats about what we think...??

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
