Bye Bye Bombers: Logo Change Considered

It's a bit of an epic effort of manufactured victimhood to turn

'A club is considering making less use of it's mascot image in branded material'

into

'the woke police are coming for everything'.

I mean...

    Is this just because the logo looks like it was taken from clip art in the early 90’s?

    Inspired Bombers logo change. I'm all for it. Kudos to Dee Viney Intervention.

    Loving the nickname suggestions too:

    • Essendon Pharmaceuticals (thanks Witches Hat - gut laugh!)
    • Essendon Danks (thanks demon 3164 - simply undeniable)
    • Essendon Pr*cks (my suggestion)

    Whats with all the lame references to drug culture? I don't get it.

    The individuals who were party to it  have long been out of the club.

    The individuals who were party to it,  are either dead (Bruce Reid), or have long been out of the club.

    The word " culture".... most apt.

    This is the crux of the matter.. their culture.

    The personas...one thing.. the context was the over-riding culture of the club.

    Don't implicate Bruce in it. He was a legendary human being. He had nothing to do with it.

    As my mate Huw says, you can sum Essendon up in two words . . . cul cha.

    Wokeism so damned insidious makes some people nervous and questioning our norms and beliefs, fortunately not those that have a strong culture and belief system supported by reality and history.

    In Kenya  the house keeper and the nanny were always removing the Demons kit from around my son’s crib. They were really disturbed by it, really had to explain that I was not a satanist and going to sacrifice the boy!!!.

    Likewise, Bombers kit not popular in the places I’ve worked (Lebanon/Sudan)

    I'm not sure what you mean here? Can you elaborate?

    Well I think ‘gliders’ is a far more environmentally appropriate name than ‘bombers’

    Though “bomber” can imply someone / something that bombs out.  Like finals.

    Nothing?  Was he blind, deaf or mute?  A doctor’s first duty is to his patient, not his paymaster.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
