I don’t but as for the â€œscarf is ok wearers”, the amount of times I’ve sat in the Redlegs and as the goals pile on against us and another loss is inevitable they (the men) take off their scarfs, fold them up and give them to their wife’s to put into their handbags. The stairwell behind the level 2 members area is another popular spot for this behaviour. 

I have never taken off my scarf BA. However there has been occasions when I left it home.

Doesn't it get wet in the shower?

 

I Have been a Supporter of The Mighty Demons since about 1969

I saw my first Demon game in Round 1 1971 (50 Years!! ago) i still remember it vividly, we Smashed South Melbourne!

But not once have i ever been into The Demon Shop. The location of said business is just so bad. 
i have always wished The Demon Shop was in the City Square, or in The Melbourne Town Hall. Then i would frequent it often

We are Melbourne. 

Maybe they would sell more merchandise if they didn't plaster sponsor logos all over the polos and jackets. Football jumpers I understand, but that's it. I get that these companies pay us plenty of money, but who wants to walk around with Zurich and Jaguar logos on a polo?


I may have told this story before (I am getting to an age where I seem to repeat myself), but i won 2nd prize in the raffle in the members area ($50 voucher to the Demon shop). I went to the shop and was told that I could spend the $50 but I wasn't eligible for the members 10% discount. Now I have spent hundreds of $$$ (not begrudgingly) in the Demon raffles, and it seemed a bit of a kick in the teeth

I wonder when the 2021 range will be released? I’ve been monitoring the site since Xmas.

The club have received the 2021 New Balance range and are in the process of preparing it for online sale. The new stock is in store though.

I am told that what you suggest does not sell poita. I like you  would prefer more simple stuff.  It seems only the stuff with logos over it sells. I was told the majority of people who buy this merchandise are under 35. That is wear it .

Not sure any of us have gotten over 2019 dannyz. They have been having a sale so perhaps it is all sold out before the arrival of 2021 gear.


It would have been nice to see an updated jumper design from NB. They’ve been using the same template for a number of years now. It doesn’t really encourage sales. I am not advocating a change to the jumper itself, but subtle changes to the physical design help with sales of jerseys. 
 

if the NB site is accurate, it looks as though the MCC logo is now on the rear of the retail versions of the jumper. That’s assuming it’s accurate. Previously, it was only on the player issues

I just rang The Demon Shop as I had planned to go in pre match and buy a jacket.

"Oh we don't have those in stock, you can only buy them online"

As there is no online description of the item, I asked about the material . The  quick echo of a keyboard told me the salesperson was looking up the same description as me .

" Oh ... well ... I think it's ......."

 So then I went to sizing and started to tell her my height etc.

" Oh .... I don't really have a size chart but if it's the wrong size you can send it back."

 

No sale!!!!!

Why not get your bespoke tailor to make you one? 😏

Good keyboard hearing there Unc. I have this skill as well!

These people are really no more than Kmart workers, harsh but true.

They're just kids. Give them a break!

 

Ordered a new balance jumper from the Demon Shop online and the Narrm pin set.  I selected ordinary post and was very impressed when it arrived within 3 days, since I'm interstate!  Although the sizing is dreadful so I'm going to have to get the hem taken up.

  • 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.
