How many more Yankee concepts do we have to endorse?

We award medals in this country not rings.

If you want a ring go and look for one on a Friday or Saturday night.

Gross.

I can understand the argument around giving players who didn't play grand final day but still played a certain percentage of games a medal (say, 10/25 games) as they have made a big contribution.  But the rings are gross. Might as well call ourselves world champions when we win the flag too

Premiership teddy bear.

Premiership beanie.

Premiership membership to Demonland.

Premiership Netflix account.

Premiership fridge magnet.

Premiership double-glazing installed at a 50% discount.

 

All better than the display of vanity that is a ring which tells people how great you are.

MFC did this about 12 months after our 2021 premiership, with a dinner and presentation of premiership rings in the MCC Committee Room involving the 23 in the flag team.

At $50,000, $2.2m just for players!!!  Plus some for staff.

Its a ridiculously indulgent way to spend approx $3.0m.    It will be closer to $6.0m if they add AFLW premiership rings ...

Sure recognise all involved but $50,000 apiece?.  If they really want “The ability to recognise all staff and make them feel special for all the hard work and to have something on their shelf is a good thing."  Give them a small replica of the Premiership Cup.  Perhaps personalise it with the recipients name etched onto it.

so, spend less per person and put the rest into junior or country AFL.

Glad to see the AFL are discussing the important issues in football 

maybe use the money to make umpires professional?

That they should even consider calling it the 'Barassi' ring to honour his legacy offends.  He was a down to earth, no fuss person.  This grotesque and ostentatious token is imv not approriate and I suspect the last thing he would want.  He deserves better and something more public.

Give them a ring but don't name it after the mighty #31.

    PREGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the Saints in Round 11 on the back of two straight losses in a row. With Jake Lever out with concussion who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Last week Captain Max Gawn consolidated his lead over reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Alex Neal-Bullen & Jake Lever make up the Top 5. Your votes for the loss against the Blues. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
