Is the away/alternative the same one this season? The lovely little royal blue number.

I don't think there is an Away Jumper per se. I thought we only wore the alternate strip when we are away and it clashes with the home team. If it doesn't clash with the home team then we wear our regular strip unless it's ANZAC day, Indigenous Round, Heritage Round, Breast Cancer Awareness Round or some other combination.

Not quite right, but yes it is a lot of jumpers.

  • Home (navy blue)
  • Clash 1 (navy blue with red back)
  • Clash 2 (royal blue)
  • Anzac Day
  • BCNA (assuming they are doing it this year)
  • Indigenous

Sorry, DV.  I don't mean to be difficult.  But, every time someone has a go at Collingwood's alternate jumper I have to shake my head.  As much as I hate that team, the fact is their traditional jumper is predominantly BLACK, while their alternate is predominantly WHITE, and works perfectly well as a clash jumper...

And, as Essendon now have a predominantly red clash jumper, we really have no grounds for having a go at them any longer, either.

And, finally, as ours is now red & blue, kinda think the old clash jumper argument that raises its head every year is pretty much a non-subject this year...

Yeah.  I know.  Off subject!  Sorry guys!  Back on subject, I like the 160 Yr jumper!  (But, as stated earlier in this thread, my $300 will be going towards 10 bottles of 1495 Scotch.  (Yep, I know I'm a cheapskate on BOTH fronts!  LOL)

Whisky review #21: 1495 Blended Scotch Whisky

Here's one to avoid, Read on at your own peril! This whisky is called 1495 which refers to the first mention in historic text of the distillation of whisky in Scotland. I could go on but this whiskey doesn't deserve the attention. This is bad whisky! My lowest scoring whisky yet!

LOL.  Tastes good to my poor, old palate, and the price is right.  What more can I say...?!

redback vs Dogs & Saints I think (maybe one other?) royal blue for the rest

Who don't we need a clash for?

North, Hawthorn, Collingwood, GWS, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Dockers, Richmond, Sydney.

Do we clash with Port and Eagles?

They made u wear white against the Eagles last year?

To be honest, I'm not sure we need to be celebrating the club's birth every 10 years. It should be every 25 to 50 at most.

This just seems unnecessary.

I don’t disagree with you Colin- but... what I do like is the fact that (at the moment) we are the only team that can have one!?

I'm a bit confused about it.

Are the only names appearing on the guernsey are from the people that pay the $300?

So if only 50 people buy into it, there will be 50 names printed on?

I believe this is the case. Not sure about the only 50 part though.

I assumed it had all past and present player’s name on it (as seen in the image) and your name would be printed on the back between the shoulders. But given the time they’re taking to manufacture I’d suggest I’m wrong. 

I don’t really want to pay $300 for a jumper with a heap of random names on it.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
