I received on Tues and still yet to open. As mentioned in the Freo postgame thread I requested a number to be added last Wed and I feel like it was sent too quick to have allowed for this change and now reading that @Kick_It_To_Pickett doesn't have their name on there I'm going into meltdown. As bad as MFCSS gets..

You positive it’s not on there? It can be hard to find Names. Took me a while to find my dads. 

 Feel free to Pm me your name and I’ll take a look. 

 Found @Nascent pretty quickly. 

My last name starts with B, and while there is plenty of names in alphabetical order, the Bs seem to be dudded around the arms and the sponsors logo. I am guessing mine may be under the Zurich patch. Amazing to see that Don McLardy has his name in amongst the Bs conveniently above the Zurich logo. Coincidence, methinks not. Another example of loyal fans being shafted by the club. They can refund me the additional 200 bucks. I’m livid. Have a family of full memberships, even though I’m MCC and could easily have just bought the 80 buck associate ones.

It’s not necessarily in alphabetical order. Also my name is on there twice. 

 My brother’s name is in the C’s and he’s mixed in with a bunch of G’s.

I’ll have a better look when I get home. Wife sent a photo through, similar to one you posted. Haven’t been able to find it. Are there names on the back of the jumper.?

No names on the back of the jumper.

As mentioned the names aren't necessarily in alphabetical order. There are some that appear in alphabetical order and then there are a few randoms mixed in and then it becomes totally random.

My dad, my brother and myself are in random place towards the top and then we're all in a row down the bottom. I've seen a few names twice and I'd hope that the ones accidentally covered by the sponsors and logos are repeated elsewhere.

Thanks Demonland. I was able to find mine. So to those I may have worried, it seems I made the error in not looking hard enough. I guess I should apologise for slagging the club ahhah

Phew. For a moment there I thought you were avoiding the auto-censor. But you really did mean bunch of G's rather than the potentially more profane "bunch of C's".

In the end they supplied you with a jumper and a puzzle.

Also I purchased two jumpers. One for myself and one for Demonland but only received one jumper today. I hope they haven't electronically mailed the Demonland one.

I reckon we'd be up around $800k had we won the last 2 games. Was it after the Pies or the Saints game Pert said we'd banked around $100k in the week following those wins

Yep, Pert was also saying two weeks ago (prior to the Sydney game) we'd get close and at the time, I think he was right. Had we won those last two games as you say mate, we'd be closing in on the $800k mark. 

A great effort from our supporters nevertheless.

Great effort from the supporters, the members, the admin

Footy dept letting the whole show down!

They look great and good to hear all names are present and accounted for

I received my jumper today but can’t seem to find my name.  Does anyone know if it should be highlighted on the jumper or is it just a where’s Wally approach?

Depends. Is your name Wally?

It got mixed in with the “Blazers” pile.

My name is not there, I wrote to them about it but no reply. I know they are all working reduces hours and days so I have cut them some slack in 2020. At the end of the day it ain’t that important.

I had the same issue.  
I called the DemonShop directly and they said that some people’s names were missed and that they would be receiving another jumper at some stage. 
It’s up to you of course but a phone call to them will fix your issue.

Do I interpret that to mean there will be two different jumpers produced? If so, wouldn't that diminish the value of the jumper?

Mind you, Rick Milne has a small piece each Saturday in The Age where he values sporting memorabilia. It's fair to say according to his advice that most sporting memorabilia produced today doesn't have much value, at least in a monetary sense. I also appreciate that many people buy memorabilia for the same reason they buy memberships - that is to support the club financially.

Old Dee is not there??

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
