News Lions kits and supporter gear discussion

Is that even maroon?

When I go back and look at Bears guernseys in other photos, it does look a couple of shades darker. Maybe the photo I posted above of Adam Kerinaiua has had the brightness turned up. Still, I do prefer a redder maroon to a purpler maroon.

Does anyone have a size L or XL 2023 mens media polo they'd be willing to sell? The new polos look much looser in their fitting and don't have as much blue.

x gazillion. The paddlepop is the symbol of a loser. The Lion is our heritage.

someone needs to get you a meeting with the club because this is so much better than what we have currently

I would make a great retro logo, but in all honesty it doesn't look very professional and is clearly a re-jig of our previous logos with the 80s/90s inspired text and graphics. The BBFFC is not easily seen either.

I'm a staunch advocate of the traditional Fitzroy Lion (I even feel modernising is completely unnecessary and would rather preserve the traditional lion), however the paddlepop as a standalone corporate logo is not that offensive to me.

The clumsy re-design of our traditional guernsey with the paddlepop was offensive for a myriad of reasons (not least of all the lack of supporter consultation with its introduction) and is generally symbolic of a dark period in club's history both on and off-field.

I'm all for more Fitzroy lion to be incorporated on merchandise and branding and perhaps even a prominent feature on our next club logo.

I must say the Essendon and AFL logos have withstood the test of time quite well.

That's the point it's meant to be an updated version of the 90's logo with some additional tweaks. It's not meant to appear professional, it's just a 1 hour project I made in canva.

I enjoyed the throwback. I'll always associate the "Brisbane" font with success and many hours of trying to replicate it by hand.

Something similar to this would have been better against GWS. Not a massive fan of our 2020-2022 clash jumper.

It could do without the Tramp stamp

In somewhat related news, it appears the Australian Olympic uniform for Paris has been inspired by the club's infamous piss-stain clash guernsey.

That jumper is awesome, love it.

Thanks, always wanted us to have a predominantly royal blue jumper. Would make perfect sense in Q-Clash games against Gold Coast.

Not a fan of this years Anzac guernsey, don't like any of our predominately white kits.

Doesn’t appear to have been a lot of thought go into it.

The blue definitely improves it but still wouldn't add it to my collection... I have 6 Guernseys, 7 Polo shirts and an inordinate number of caps.

Not a fan of white jumpers for us, this design feels like a regression and they could of done a better effort. Don't understand what was wrong with our current Gold/Maroon clash jumper.

If I had to guess, the AFL doesn't think our clash jumper provides sufficient contrast to GWS

As with several previous Indigenous guernseys, I feel like the Lion detracts from it. An outline might have been better.

Yeah I reckon you could make an exception for these jumpers and even just have the Lion on the breast like where the AFL, Sponsors badge sits.
