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.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
