That’s definently a rip-off. Ugh, why would we want to rip off a soccer logo. Yuck

 

Whilst I like the crazy eyes from the 80s, I really like the current design, I’m embracing it!

As a Toffee I despise the one on the left. Don't mind Schwabbys logo. Although I actually just like the MFC monogram

Those time-travelling Liverpudlian bastards copied us?

Lol I hate soccer. So, although I liked it at the time, I agree it had to go. Even if the soccer club did approve it.

I still don’t think our “retro” gear should be restricted to 1988 though.

Serious? Absolutely no resemblance. Other than a shield.

The symbols Catalan flag/Aussie Strars, Cross of St George (which is symbol of the city of Barcelona)/Trident, Soccer Ball/Footy etc, besides which I asked Schwab straight out and he said yes

Love him, but can’t we have the 1989 logo on retro as well?

Bloody newcomers. They come along 34 years later and claim we copy them, bah!

Schwab's might have been better without the trident and southern cross.

I always thought it would look much better with the Southern across and Trident, nice work.

So it's a rip-off of both Liverpool AND Barca, even though they each look nothing like each other?

Similar elements (as admitted by CS) in a totally different design doesn't make it plagiarism. I don't believe ours could remotely be mistaken for theirs.

Heraldic Tradition I say.

Meanwhile the Marylebone Cricket Club called. They want their monogram back.

Spot on.  The Schwabby one always looks like it was designed by a committee and everyone’s ideas needed to be included.  It was cluttered and haphazard.

FWIW I think our current monogram is great.  It’s simple, effective, stands out and is timeless.

That was the idea after the cluttered design, we were lucky we didn't get Schwab's original design, that was more cluttered

I was part of a focis group invited to input on what design we would like to see

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
