I can’t find the link to it but the 1988 was sensational. It was by far the best poster he did for us.

Now that he’s selling them and if by some chance we do lose, is he going to reuse it again if we make another one?

Well our record in Grand Finals is really pretty good, so in theory they've only got four up their sleeves.

1958 which they've  obviously used for this year. The year 2000 which we've seen someone show already. So that just leaves 1988 and 1954 as the other options.

    He told me that weg did several of each team before he died. That way they only need to add the year.

    If you look closely, he has tweaked that Demon. He’s made it a bit thinner, his forehead, made him darker red, etc. I don’t have any real problems with that, but if they’re tweaking, why didn’t they make the last fork on the pitchfork the same size? It makes it less obvious what he’s doing in the poster.

    Love this idea for the wall, but screw having a giant herald sun logo in my house. That paper can get in the bin.

    He is interviewed on 5he afl exchange podcasts and said the Demons marketing team had a few things to say.

    No cheese platers.

    No range rovers.

    No skis.

    Don't make the demon too red.

    He sounded a bit miffed by it.

    It’s pathetic that they still even mention those jokes. We’ve won the minor premiership and are favourites in the grand final. They’re redundant now. People are so used to Melbourne being the whipping boys, they can’t accept that its the direct opposite now. I wonder how long they went on about a Brisbane like this when they won their hat trick? 
    Sad really

    I'm not usually a huge fan of the Knight posters (his Richmond ones were terrible) but I actually don't mind that Demons one.

    A wegart one has also been released, basically rips off the unused 1958 one which doesn't make sense, would've preferred they went with the unused 2000 one.

    It’s not being sold by us so doesn’t count. Don’t stress.

    I would have preferred a little hair on his head, a bit more red, bigger/longer horns and I don’t know why the 1964 tattoo is there (was 1954 on the Dogs 2016 poster?) but otherwise I’m pretty happy. I mean it’s the best we could expect from Mark Knight. He’s no Weg.

    I still have a 64 poster I  got from Mr Friedman’s paper shop, on that Saturday night, 

    folded and a little ripped, I had it plastic embalmed so it would not get worse. 
     

    still think the Weg posters are better.  Go Dees

    I much prefer the '21 Weg edition to the Mark Knight one. I'll definitely get one I can frame but I'd prefer it didn't have the little Wegart logo that draws your eye to the bottom left corner. Those demons from our 1950's era look fantastic.

    It doesn’t. The actual posters don’t. It a watermark to prevent people making their own copies without ordering it

    Not bad! It looks pretty good. Would of liked the horns bigger!

    I like the WEG style poster too. Although using the 1958 Grand Final WEG poster is a bit odd, I would of preferred the 2000 Grand Final WEG poster but that's just my own opinion.

    Anyway, we will see what happens Saturday evening I guess? Fingers crossed! 🤞

    GO DEMONS!!!

    Like I said, hairs do more red would have been better. But we can’t blame him as we apparently requested less hair.

    I’d happily put that on my wall. Got enough family photos there already

    • 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?
