Is it really a coincidence that we have both Harvey Langford and Lego onboard this year?

No.

Apart from the team at the club who rightfully deserve the accolades, I wonder if Hamish's profile with the club helped on this?

Will Max be featuring on Legomasters this year?

Btw: A big shout out to Hamish who has done a lot work with some sick kids in a very low key way. Top effort.

As a Lego Star Wars fiend, and the recent inheritor of a very large technics collection (cranes and industrial vehicles), this news has absolutely made my day, probably this year!

Lego and the Dees have been on an equal footing in my brain, which I know is almost unforgivable in this space, but they have been compartmentalised to be fair. Now I have legitimacy to be as emotionally fulfilled as the moment attending the 2021 GF, well maybe slightly less ... but nonetheless, they can now reside equally without favour and people can roll their eyes as much as they want when I segue from the Dees to Lego and back to the Dees ad nauseum. 

Huge signing, and massive potential in attracting kids to the Dees, as some have pointed out.

This must surely be one of the largest international sponsors in the AFL. 

Massive acquisition will be incredibly important for increasing membership and attendance for the young kids.

As a financially crippled Lego fan (I have at least 100+ unopened boxes stashed in cupboards, under beds, piled in my study etc, not to mention what is actually built all over the place), this is great!! I loosely partnered with Lego HQ at some point, and I can tell you the hoops and hurdles that must have gone through to get this done would have been significant. 

Lego is a closely held, still family-owned company who is very conservative with who it partners with, communications, and messaging etc. So excellent work all round!!

Very fun partnership. Iga Swiatek was recently sponsored by Lego too and seemed to have a lot of fun during the more corporate photo days. 

Can’t wait to see what they have in store with the club! Not a big figure collector, but I did buy the Nintendo Entertainment System LEGO set day 1 because it was cool, but imagine an MCG set? Instant pre order

What fun! Well done, MFC - and LEGO!

I just hope they're not left lying around on the change room floor...

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
