[weekend at bernies]

I'm still deciding between 12, 22 or 32. Gonna have a 2 in it at the very least.

Im thinking 32 or 8

I went 6, just can't go past mods. Every number has some duds associated with it unfortunately.

Crowmania is available for numbers again.

Whilst I'm here I may as well insert myself here and with it now official, as consulted by the club I can comment on these matters. The club certainly has acknowledged me and its been amazing to see all the positive reception for the guernsey, especially from Crows people.

Terrific design, really looking forward to seeing the boys in this on Thursday night. Congratulations, glad the club got in contact.

I haven't bought a guernsey in years but jumped at the chance to buy this one. I think knowing that it a one off and retro inspired got me to take action.

If it was announced as an away guernsey ongoing or something (obviously not because of the colour) I would probably think well I've got all year to get around to it, then the excitement dies down and then I don't get around to it, "oh well maybe next year, see if there are any changes".

So definetely think the club should do this every 2 or 3 years. It would be great to have another chance to get a couple of those away or one offs from the past as well as some new designs, without the club being locked in to using it every second week for 2 years.

I went number 12 because why not get the captains number in his first year as captain.

Speaking of numbers, the last time I went to the effort to get numbers on a jumper (this is a long time ago) I went into the AFL Shop on King William Street at the time. I was very set on getting number 26 for Richard Douglas

who was the person who served me and had to put his old number on a guernsey.

Fair enough too. Tremendously s**t take when it's such a cool guernsey and at the very very least, a return of the swooping Crow logo.

And that's not even considering that O'Neills have our club looking the best they have in on field gear since at least the Adidas days, and even Adidas was getting into stupid side panels and bibs. It's shouldn't be rocket surgery, but O'Neills in their first year delivered hoops that go all the way around, correct colours, and numbers without a white outline.

O'Neills are a solid supplier. Some of their GAA stuff in particular has been brilliant (and that includes often outdoing the Australian strips for the IRS), so it's no surprise how well their apparel has been with us.

Bigger than a Port crowd circa 2012 there

very true. I got 21 for Atkins on my current guernsey. He flopped the following year.

I've done numbers for years (Some of my really old guernseys dont have them, ie. ~20 years back)

So for christmas 2020, my parents bought me the 2021 kits (home and away) for the following year.

7 for Thilthorpe on the away kit I had zero problem with.

But as he's a North fan, of course he had to go 42 for Newchurch. Im not sure i've worn that to a game yet. Maybe if he debuts Ill bring it out. But come on. Really getting a guernsey with a category B rookie number on it?

Andy Maher and De Stoopid on SEN both think this Guernsey is 'pox' and a pathetic attempt at a money grab from fans.

Well it is a cash grab. Don’t think you can call it pathetic though. It’s going to be rather successful.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Just like the powder blue guernsey from 97 lol

They do realise we’re not the only ones doing a Gather Round guernsey

Seems like everyone is jumping on the bandwagon.

Everything with regards to merchandise is a money grab. That's the whole point of it? To sell to make money?

SEN have been shitlisted by the Crows, they rarely say anything positive about us

 

[Carn The Texan]

FYI I preordered the guernsey before you could get a number put on it.. but I sent them an email and they've amended the order to include a number.

 

[Dirty Bird]

Ummmmmmmmmm
The price has just dropped from $125 to $112.50............

Will those that bought in the past 36 hours get a refund for that $12.50?
