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.

    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.

    100% agree

    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’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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
