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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
