What Guernsey Number?!

Currently looking at grabbing one of the nifty longsleeve guernseys from the MFC website.. 

Wondering if I can pay extra for a number on the back (10), or if the club is no longer doing this?..I know that they used to years ago?..

Additionally, I'm be interested if all Demonlanders were given the chance to obtain a free jumper from the club, and you could get a number on the back to represent the love ofyour fave player, which number would you ask for?

Go Dees

    Pretty sure they still press numbers on underneath the G at the Demon Shop.

    I go number 2 (on both my guernseys and duffel coat), always seems to cover someone in the past everyone loves and the current one looks alright as well!

    Speaking of jumpers, has our blue gone a fair shade lighter this year?? Or is my TV (or eyes) on the way out?

    Only ever had the #5 since the Ox. 
     

    Althought if I was to choose one other than the #5, I’d have a hard time choosing between the 36, 1 and 24

    They do. I bought a jumper along with a bunch of other stuff and they pressed the number on at no extra cost.

    If you bring a jumper in just to have a number put on there’s a charge. I don’t know how much but I’ll find out on Tuesday since I’ll be taking a different jumper to the Demon Shop to get 37 on it.

    Get the number 8 and apply it sideways so it looks like the infinity symbol and the jumper will last forever.

    Well, I'd be getting it for the lovely person sitting next to me, and she is convinced that Bailey Fritsch is her brother (he looks Vietnamese, for sure!) so it would have to be 31.

    Somewhere in a box at my mum's place (a casualty of multiple moves back in more adventurous times) I have a guernsey signed by Max Gawn before he had even played a game (pre-season, 2010-11). I feel like I should back that up with 11.

    Yeah I always need a #5 in the repertoire. The one I have currently was from Trac's second season but homage to Ox.

    Last season I bought a long sleeve at the Brunton Ave shop and had a #5 pressed on. The pressing was $15 then I believe. Couldn't order online with the number pressing included as there was no option to do so, but it was all easily arranged in store and done very quickly. Very happy with the result! Good luck.

    How do you actually request this though? Last time I bought a jumper there was no option or comments section.

    Well, I guess I'd have to go with 'My Boy' (sorry, @Lucifers Hero; 'Our Boy'...), 41.

    But he'll be losing the '4' 2027-ish, and I hear the press-on is pretty good quality, so I won't rush.

    My boys were talking about getting 37, but I’m worried Kade may be offered a lower number now that he’s tearing it up.  
     

    Number 2 could be a solid investment in the future… hopefully 36 is as well.

    Why I never thought of that is beyond me.

    You just need to ask the salesperson. There’s a little room out the back of the shop wherein there’s one of those old school presses (think Bea Smith on Prisoner). They do it on the spot.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
