Brisbane Lions are finally going to consult members on the jumper

[SBYM]

I think most supporters are fans of the nostalgic look.

Any Port fans keen on the heritage strip?

 

[AFLQLD]

Gotta love an ambiguous question...you'd think they are deciding whether to become a republic or something...

That is a different part of the survey. We are breaking away to become Brisbanistan. We will show no mercy to the southern infidels and choke our rivers with their dead.

And also get a nicer guernsey.

 

[Roylion]

We aren't Fitzroy though, we should wear these jumpers on a special occasion, but anything more is unnecessary

The Lions do wear them on special occasions. Everytime they play in Victoria.

 

[Rutherford Hayes]

What about something like this?

It's maroon AND Fitzroy.

What about something like this?

It's maroon AND Fitzroy.

So's maroon, blue and gold. Red, blue and gold have been Fitzroy's colours since 1975 and are worn by Fitzroy Football Club to this day.

 

[rjslcM]

I like the maroon, navy/dark blue and gold look best rather than your light blue.

 

[Banyo Bloods]

I'd like to see them wear the actual Fitzroy jumper in Melbourne each year for a few games the same as I wish the Swans would roll out the red v for some Melbourne games. Adopt the premiership jumper design for home games and interstate and some vic games.

 

[adey115]

Vote "yes" and let's get rid of the crappest design on current day afl guernseys. Simple return to the triple premiership guernsey, with the red version in Melbourne if required.

 

[Harris Specter]

Tonight's the AGM.

Thank you to all those that played a part in this historic chapter of our club. While it may be a small issue, it's a big step in reclaiming the Lions we loved and adored. The club seems pretty confident that we'll get our traditional Lion back with the tweet showing a small portion of the original Lion.

Huge, huge wraps to The Lions' Roar who have done a great job in organising the petition, and everything else concerned with the jumper. Kudos!

 

[Doss]

No doubt this news greatly pleases ____.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Goodbye paddlepop lion you will not be missed.

 

[Smoky]

Goodbye paddlepop lion you will not be missed.

But I still look forward to seeing you in my freezer.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

But I still look forward to seeing you in my freezer.

Don't we all.

That reminds me i need to get some paddlepops.

 

[simba_]

that is one of the great kits, great color combo is red and blue.

 

[E92_]

Maroon/white/navy (old Fitzroy colours) is a dclassy colour combo.

 

[Crawb]

IT'S BACK FOR 2015!!!

 

[QS]

Congratulations guys! You bet I am going to smash our club with this news ;-)

 

[E92_]

About time, hopefully WC will return the wings in 2015 as well.

 

[jerry springer]

Bring on 2015.

GO LIONS!

 

[Balance]

This is BS, it's should be back for 2014. How long was the paddle-pop "contracted" for anyway?

 

[E92_]

It's an AFL rule, clubs need to notify the AFL 12 months in advance.

 

[Arden]

It's an AFL rule, clubs need to notify the AFL 12 months in advance.

Rules are made to be broken.

Burn every paddle pop and restore normality for 2014.

 

[Happy_Neale]

It's an AFL rule, clubs need to notify the AFL 12 months in advance.

Whilst this technically is true, the Bulldogs and Port Adelaide fought hard to get around this rule and implement their changes sooner.

Rapt to get the result though, just one more season in that turd of a jumper to get through
