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.

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
