Club Emblem

With the announcement yesterday that we will be wearing a jersey this year with the 90s/early 2000s demon face, I was keen to get people thoughts on our emblem.

Personally that emblem was my all time favourite and I’d love to bring back the demon in some capacity. I find the current club emblem a bit bland.

What’s everyone’s thoughts?

    As an away jumper?

    I’m more referring to the emblem itself and comparing it to our current club emblem.

    I like the jersey though as a clash jumper.

    I like the current emblem. The worst was the dog's breakfast of one we had during Jimmy's time as president.

    100%…. How that got past inspection horrified me at the time and still does. It was embarrassing.

    A bloke I know had that emblem tattooed on his calf.

    To make a bad situation worse, the quality of the artwork was terrible.

    Won't happen but I'd love it if we just readopted that logo. It's the best logo we've ever had and we got rid of it because we didn't want to spook some Chinese sponsors.

    It still looks really modern. It has a a really striking and unique brand compared to our current logo which is fine but fairly boring. Also think a firey demon head is much more attractive to kids than a shield and a monogram.

    The current emblem is far the worst we’ve had, won’t happen but I’d prefer we go back to our retro emblem.

    I agree we should go back to our Demon head emblem, so as to reaffirm that we are the OG when it comes to Demons and Devils.

    I'm not a fan of tattoos but that sounds horrendous. Wasn't the emblem Jimmy's own creation? Given enough room I'm convinced he would have squeezed in a boomerang, an irish flag and a meat pie as well.

    I dunno… I love it as well and just assume most supporters feel the same way. If we make enough noise could we see some sort of reincarnation? Hopefully.

    The most offensive thing about the current one is how inoffensive it is.

    I seem to recall that Cameron Schwab's grubby paw prints were all over it.

    Showing the M as flames was as brilliant as it was logical.

    I’ve been saying this amongst other Dees supporters for years now - far and away the best emblem we’ve ever had 

    Plus retro is very much in vogue these days - I reckon you could reintroduce it with some minor touch ups and it wouldn’t look dated at all 

    Bring back “Give Em Hell” while we’re at it

    That's also the problem with it. Emblems like that go in and out of fashion. What's "retro" one day might look dated the next.

    I love the current emblem as a primary logo. We are MELBOURNE.

    The 90s logo is very....90s. I like it though. I always thought the demon looked a bit like Neil Balme.

    I like the current one most. It has a touch of class , which is aligned with our supporter base 😉.

    Never liked that 90’s emblem…

    That's the logo right there, the best version of the Demon with the pitch fork.

    Collar popped up in red, classic and still in vogue, just change the VFL logo with an AFL one.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
