I don't mind that Nugget.

Neither do I. And I think it's more realistic as well. All these guernsey's with the old Demon logo on them are just not going to happen. Our logo is that blue with the red yoke and that tacky writing now, so any clash guernsey will be derived from that in some way.

why couldnt we have a red jumper with blue trim with the letters MFC in blue intertwined as they used to be back in the day on the front, a bit like the carlton jumper. it should avoid the 2 clash's we have with essendon and carlton. on the back above the numbers you could have an MelbourneFC 150 logo or something... at least it has a bit of heritage about it. or invert the colours as another poster has done above. im not keen on the club bending too much.

That was like the old training jumper wasn't it? i think that jumper was blue though. That would be good as well, wonder what the club will come up with, if they change at all.

yeah, like the old training jumper.

as for the need to change the jumper, doesnt it depend on who designed it? if Asics designed we may need a change.

Maybe I'm on my own here, but if we are serious about an alternative jumper, then we need to go with different colours. It's not the design that makes us clash with Essendon, it's the darkness of the blue and red colours and the black and red colours.

A proper alternative strip has to be radically different in colour from the home jumper. Freo's is good. Essendon's is rubbish.

I don't see the point in reversing the colours as I don't think this helps in a clash with Essendon. If we are already varying the sacred home jumper, then to me I don't mind if they go a step further and play in colours that aren't primarily red and blue.

well the club logo i suppose is the new bland thingy... but as a graphic on a jumper...what more do we need than a Demon ??...It aint broke...why fix it ?? lol

its just an idea.. It cant clash.. its still us.. It s immediately recognisable as Melbourne.. in the old language it ticks all the boxes.. so obviously is far too logical !!! lol :P

I suppose you could modify it further..

IMO logos look crap.

One of the best thing about AFL jumpers is their simplicity. The Bulldogs have ruined their jumper by putting that logo on the front IMO.

That's why I'm all for having an alternative that still holds on to the simple design of the Melbourne jumper.

Agreed, logos do make them look like training guernseys. I don't envy the blokes at the club and Reebok(?) who have to design one.

Oh, and for the one I put on a few posts back, they aren't stripes...It is a large M for Melbourne. Creative, no?

agreed, the logos ruin a good football jumper in my opinion

also, i think clash jumpers need to be more vastly different from a teams main jumper. I think the white, with the red and blue V looks the best, without the stripes down the front

what about nothing but the 150, and melbournefc underneath it? remind everyone who's 150th season it actually is...

otherwise i would like to see us continue to use our traditional jumper in every game we are allowed, and auction off the jumper to whoever wants to pay the most the other weeks ala the light blue smarty at carlton. if we are forced to change our jumper for 2-3 games a year, sell it to pine-o-clean for 100K, and we'll wear green with a freakin tree on the front. it sure beats selling a home game interstate...

haha...that is a smart idea but it wont happen. in my opinion the best alternative strip this year was carltons and they just reversed the colours...that is where i got the idea for mine

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
