how do we pronounce narrm given the double r

is it NARM  (single syllable)

or NAR-R(u)M  (2 syllables)

or something else

 

I remember when we'd go ballistic if we even altered the shade of the colours on the Jumper, we've come a long way.

Just my opinion, the short sleeve looks so much better than the long sleeve.

i don't think that is quite true

we've had special occasion jumpers for many decades without much controversy

and if we tampered with the official club home jumper now we would still go ballistic

 

Mandy Nicholson who did the 2016-17 design's is Ky-ya's mum.  They are fantastic artists, and a great family. Had both Ky-ya and her sister Dharna in my school.  Jumper looks great.


I applaud the club who is always leading the way in this area ,but in terms of the jumper It's my least favourite  so far. 

I'm not a great fan of this particular design because I generally prefer a less cluttered look. I also prefer jumpers that are about two-thirds navy blue and one-third red. However, because it's being worn against North Melbourne, in this instance having red as the dominant colour may prove to be wise.    

Relieved to have only seen a couple of somewhat negative posts on social media from our fanbase. Previously you'd see some "WIN A FLAG then do A/B/C"  type behavior , some real suspect individuals on the internet. 

Won't be buying the jumper (still need to get last year's signed and framed) but hoping for some further Narrm FC products. 


Love the initiative, maybe the long sleeve version is perhaps a bit busy for my liking.

Perhaps the only criticism here is that they could have done a bit more in changing up the logo, just replacing the word Melbourne with Narrm doesn't show a lot of initiative (especially with the MFC remaining in the bottom section) would have liked the logo to be reworked a bit harder.

Well done to the club and our supporters for embracing this. Our club can be proud of its initiatives over the years. 

Go the Narrms!

Not sure about here, but in a language I used to speak (in the NT) - the double-R meant that you rolled it

Brilliant leadership from the club. Fantastic to see

 

Crazy to see so many people getting triggered on Facebook though!!

Absolutely love this

Me to ADD I love our club for these great initiative’s and how good was it to see Aaron the Flash Davies running the master of ceremonies he was such a great Melbourne player and supported by Matty Whelen and Jack and Steven both spoke so well on behalf of the Club and Perty as well. NARRM has a nice ring to it as well.

I'd love to see them pick the best design over the last 5-10 years & stick with that permanently.

Maybe they sell more by changing design every year.

 

New jumper looks too busy for mine, but perhaps we can get frees for frontal contact. The proof is on the jumper.

The long-sleeved looks like pyjamas. 
Last year’s was the best of all.

  • 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.
