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. 

can i put you down for a dozen, ethan?

    As long as I can make up 12 different names and you can guarantee they’ll get printed on the jumpers.

    You would need approximately 3000 names or more on there for it to make the desired effect on the guernsey. At $300 a pop that's a pretty nice windfall for the club.

    If they get the numbers

    Can we pass the hat around the site and all chip in to get a Demonland one? We can all share it for a % of the year.

    I can confirm that it will be your name and whoever buys it in tiny letters on the front of the jumper and not printed on the back between the shoulders. 

    I assumed the same as you.

    Nice jumper but not at $300. That’s 6 bottles of rum. 

    2, maybe 3 bottles of whiskey...more likely 2 or one and a few cigars.

    who am I kidding... I ain’t paying that.

    that's the blackest navy blue i've ever seen (assuming the colour is accurate on the mfc merchandise page)

    The old jumpers around 60's, were very dark blue, in photos.

    Ambivalent about this one at the moment. Shame the AFL logo is so prominent and the sponsors.

    Could just have a commemorative jersey celebrating what a disappointment of a club we have been in recent years. I'm thinking a red and blue white strip with a white flag in the middle of the jumper....

    Seriously our finals hopes are on the line and we roll out some nonsense jumper.

    The FB comments on the MFC post are amusing.

    My favourite was this one:

     

    "They should introduce a 'commiserations jumper' with the 22 pea hearts that played the final round of the season last year and the 22 that will play Round 23 this year wear it with their names on it. Yuck what an embarrassment. I've had a gutful".

    between 150 and 160 we haven't played a single finals match lol

    What if we wear this after losing to WC, then lose to GWS? 160th anniversary guernsey, with members names written on, while we bundle out of contention and miss finals for the 12th (!) straight season.

    This should have been done earlier in the year. The timing really isn't ideal.

    Anyone on here get their ‘members’ name on the jumper?

    I hope we win this week otherwise it won’t end well come round 23 when you read the below from the MFC article. 

    The reason it will be worn in the final round is part of ‘Member thank you round’.

    Fantastic! A great companion piece to commemorating our 12th successive season of missing finals.

    Keep up the good work, MFC.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
