BringBackTheDemon

If Super says there was no logo then im almost certain Ethan is making stuff up. :) Again, happy to be proven wrong with a link to this proof of his.

Can you link me to where you found us using it in 1897 please? I struggled to find any early emblems for us, interested to see the old ones.

A quick google search and I dont think we pre date the Yankees using the overlapping initials at all, the Yankees first used it in 1909. Happy to be corrected.

My point was the late 90s-2000s logo was original which made it awesome.

Hard to believe a guy with the username "BringBackTheDemon" wants the Demon back I know, but: The current logo is a blatant rip off of the Brooklyn Nets and New York Yankees. Cameron Schwab's monstrosity was a blatant rip off of Liverpool. The Flamehead logo is original and epic. Bring it back full time. I will say the current logo is better than "Demon Spirit" though, so unbelievably cringe. You've stuck with this for years now (why??) yet "Give em Hell" only lasted 1 season and that brought us a premiership and is far better for marketing.

I dont seem to remember Fages being a hot candidate though.

The question is though Dazzle, why would he want to come here as things stands if hes as popular as you say? Surely he can be picky?

As much as I want Goody gone I do agree with the point about who would we replace him with? And even if we could find someone, I wouldnt like to put all the drama surrounding the club right now on a new coach, that would be completely unfair. Let the people in charge of this mess (the coach, the board, the president, the list management manager, the CEO) get it fixed or all go down in flames together next year. Edit: Also, would you trust this board and CEO with a new appointment? I wouldnt. Would much rather let a new CEO and board decide who the next coach would be if we got to that.

What makes you think we were unlucky when we have shown for a while now that we are very good at losing the close games. Keep coping.

There are 9 premiership players on West Coasts list, 13 on Richmond's. Wonder if their supporters are flexing about the guy who finished 8th in their BNF this year too?

If anyone is being smug its you, still bragging about 2021's flag for a team that finished 14th in 2024.

You typify everything wrong with this club Wayne, still stuck in 2021 still clinging onto it when it has no relevance to how the team is performing in the now. Who cares how many premiership players we have, where did we finish in 2024?

My point was finishing 8th on a team that finished 14th is hardly proof of any greatness or something to shut any haters up, and I actually dont even hate Chandler, i think hes a good user who would look much better on a team who moved the ball faster. Being a forward for Melbourne is one of the worst jobs in football. If you and others want together excited by BNF finishes for a 14th placed team though youre welcome to do so.

Top 10 for the team that finished 14th is no great flex. How did it work out for Terlich when he finished top 3? Did he become a future captain?

If you view Tom Campbell coming to club is a positive youre really struggling to name 3 things. Get excited about a VFL ruckman Dees fans!

We are the weirdest club ive ever known. "Get out!...But come and say goodbye to everyone first!" ...Jesus Christ.

The dysfunction is worse than Neeld years id say. Im not fussed with the compensation, I just want the Oliver saga to be over. The only hope for this club is a complete cleanout next offseason, that could bring some hope and positivity. Next year is absolutely a write off however, but at least Goodwin, Pert and the current board have to endure it and not a first year coach, justice for what they have let happen to the club.

Lets keep everyone and do it in 12 months time instead. Just waste a year carrying on pretending its still 2021 again.

Why are we waiting til 2 weeks into the season? Goodwin, Pert, the football department, the board should all be gone now. The joint needs a complete reset.

Why are people so concerned with him playing well for another club? WHO CARES?? Much like the [censored] around and find out graph, there comes a point where talent no longer outweighs drama and I believe we have reached that point. He clearly cant be trusted by US and thats what it comes down to. If he is a changed man and gets on the straight and narrow at Geelong so be it but clearly the club believe its not going to happen here if we trade him. We only know about the issues in the media, im sure there is plenty more the club has covered up for Oliver over the journey.

How do you know he didnt? Maybe he has and they have said they arent interested? Not every club wants Oliver like some of you seem to believe.

Two top 10 picks and we dont pay a cent of his salary, , haha, boy youre going to be disappointed. **NEWSFLASH** It isnt 2021

Some Dees fans are so terrified of the past that they are happy with close enough is good enough. With this list close enough is not good enough. Its the same nonsense we are hearing out of the club right now. Pert and Roffey saying we didnt play finals so therefore thats not good enough, how about instead of just playing finals you [censored] win a couple???? And as if not playing finals is our only issue. Smh. Stop thinking about 2013 and being happy with the club just coz we arent 2013 Melbourne. Adjust your standards.

Hate to break it to you, but the top 4 play in prelims mate.

Let me throw up GWS as an example. Leon Cameron had them in flag contention (didnt win a flag like Goody but made it to a grand final) after that they dropped away slowly but surely playing boring predictable football towards the end much like we have this year. In comes Adam Kingsley who reenergises the entire club in quick time. Nobody was saying how great the Kingsley appointment was at the time. Same could be said for Collingwood with Buckley and McRae. Stop living in 2021 that time has passed us by. Dont be scared of change, embrace it.
