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

I'm starting to think Cassie has a problem with soccer.

    Not even close. @praha should have been put on staff at the club for this effort.

    Cale Morton as the body model?

    What else was squeezed on there?

    The quarter-by-quarter scores from all 12 premierships, pictures of the 10 greatest MFC marks and goals, and the names of every player who played more than 100 games for the club, along with their signatures. Usual logo stuff.

    I think the DNA of all premiership captains was also encoded onto it.

    Never said it had to be Cassy, all i said is that it is my favourite.

    Nor did I suggest you did. Like I said previously, I think it’s GREAT they’ve bought him back. I grew up with him. I would just like to see a return of the 1989 one on some merchandise. Those headbands in the 90’s very pretty groovy.

    As a kid I loved what I think of as the 'hair on fire' version. Not so much now.

    I can see our current one but with a demon instead of the monogram. That way it has the best of both worlds, with the demon, and also the word 'Melbourne' being in there.

    It's a wonderful hybrid of Cale, Old Dee and our traditional mascot @faultydet

    How it hasn't been adopted yet is beyond me. Perhaps we should add the club name in Comics Sans font?

    The logo should be perched upon a very expensive desk if that addition were to be made. Or at least have a whiteboard as it's  background.

    I thought it looked too much like Batman. I’d hate to see him make a return.

    Can't un-see that now!

    I wouldn't want that demon now either. Something more like the 80s one but in contrasting colours, sort of silhouetted where the monogram is now.

    This goes off topic a bit, but I wouldn't mind seeing retro heroes being put on tee-shirt lines. The gawn and Jones nerd tees were a hot commodity last season. Would love a flower, stynes, barassi and Lyon tee to be created.

    That would be awesome. I like how the 90’s “cheeky demon” made a reappearance. I just think the 1989 logo has been forgotten when in my opinion, it was one of the best non demon emblems we had.

     Best logo ever got to tell the late great Jim Stynes the major reason im a demon to this day he loved it the big fella.

    Wouldnt I’d be great if (and a possible money spinner for the club) if they rereleased some of the old logos? Maybe once a year the fans vote for the logo on some club merch then deposit $/pre-purchase some gear?

    I’d buy some of it again, would be great to see some of the older stuff back out again rather than just the new dangled stuff.

    Exactly. I think it’s time for the 1989 to make a reappearance.

    Had to throw these two strapping demons in the mix.

    I’d love to see some women’s singlets and sleeveless tops to wear when going out. Imagine the guys I’d come snare with one of those!

  • Quote

    those patches posted by dedokter - but especially the first one - both get my vote as, like our current logo, they're only red and blue

    no white in our emblem thanks

    our current logo is my favourite of all of ours tho

    pure class:

    The logo above would have been an exercise in trying to find the balance between the perceived desires of a client and not wanting to be judged on the horrific end result.

    The bane of any graphic designer.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
