When something is more meaningful than you know, because you just don’t know. And that’s ok, but just get out of the way.

Watching that put the biggest smile on my face. Club absolutely kicking goals off-field recently, and this shows what the addition of an indigenous liaison officer at each club can do.

Narrm the Dees!!!

    Anyone else worried about a jumper clash? Certainly top half. I wonder what the back of Norf's is like?

    OK I've changed my tune.

    Seeing the jumper next to the north one I like it. Doesn't look as busy as I originally thought. Maybe cos the north one is really intricately patterned... but anyway I like it

    This is one of the best things the club has done off the field in my lifetime.

    I know it’s not exactly like-for-like but a rebrand of Demonland to Narrmland for a few weeks would be excellent.

    I thought about it but I'm not sure it's not appropriation or insensitive to indigenous people and their culture without their blessing.

    Happy just to promote and celebrate indigenous culture by promoting and supporting the indigenous community in any way I can.

    Fair call.

    Seems a bit on the nose, but afl.com is asking people to vote on the best Indigenous jumper. Surprised to see we were equal clubhouse leaders. I wouldn't have thought that would be the general opinion as to aesthetics. Is it the rebrand that's winning the votes?

    Yep.  imv, asking people to vote is in poor taste and not in line with the occasion.

    The devil snake on the new merch is off the charts cool. I really hope the club jump on that longer term and make different versions of it as part of our indigenous brand.

    So pumped for my new devil snake scarf to arrive -  which will be in rotation with my regular scarf, and my premiers scarf. What a time to be a Demon supporters neck!

    Sadly, it looks like the scarves are sold out as couldn't see any in the mfc 'shop' on line.

    Ditto. Assuming more will come. It’s a winner.

    Sure is a winner!

    I rang the Shop, they have plenty in stock for OTC sales. 

    More stock will be made for on-line purchase but they weren't too sure when.

    Will try and find out more when I go to the Shop tomorrow.

    Agree. I love the look of it and would be happy to see that as our Sir Doug Nicholls round kit.

    Really like the Bombers design too. 

    Ours is growing on me after I initially didn't think much of it.

    I've always been a fan of the simple designs of traditional jumpers such as our navy blue with the red triangle, Carlton's solid blue with the CFC logo and Richmond's and Essendon's solid black with coloured sash. I've never liked the messier designs of the Eagles or the paddle-pop Lions. However, indigenous art is inherently "busy" with its use of pontillism and animal motifs. These busier designs work brilliantly for indigenous themed jumpers.

    I think you can view it as a celebration of the art you like.
    Something that's often overlooked is the huge boon this is for indigenous artists to promote their work.
    I bought some artwork a few years back after seeing the artist Nth Melbourne Design - loved it.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
