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 😉.

    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.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
