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".

    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

    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?

    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.

    • 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?
