Ha Ha, I agree. I read in the paper that yesterday or Saturday alone we turned over about $600,000 in merchandise compared to $100,000 for a year a couple of years ago
Not me though. I would have worn my wooley guernsey if it had still fitted so I settled for my early 2000's jumper.
And I won't be buying any new guernsey's until they get Tasmania off it

I hope your club makes heaps of cash but those people that get on the club a week before and after the granny just shit me.
thats fair enough, but i dont think there were that many bandwagoners..?
I'll stick with the NAB/Clash jumper, the new logo that dominates the front of it is like a symbol for a new era for the hawks. I can't claim the glory of the 70's & 80's because I was to young. But I've lived through the bad times and now I'm going to enjoy what is hopefully the next great era for our club
I'll admit, I was embarassed by the number of supporters milling around Fed square at 9pm on Saturday night. Way too many people who probably pulled their hawk scarf out of the dusty cupboard and thought, "I'm gonna head into the city to celebrate even though I didn't go to any games this year".
Then again it's better than the days when we had 15,000 members and everyone of them were die-hard fans. At least our future is secured

Yeah, I wore my shit mid-late 90's pre-season jumper from when we were a shit side. I would have worn the jumper I bought the morning of the 1988 GF (and wore to the GF - No.23) but 20 years have passed and the fit isn't quite the same as when I was 15.
Having said all that, probably time to buy a new one.
Trust me, there was no greater collection of brand new scarfs and guernseys than at the 2001 grand final parade. It was absolutely nauseating.
As for Hawthorn, after the game against Essendon earlier this year I was walking behind an elderly woman wearing a 51 year membership scarf. I remember patting her on the pack and saying I hope the Hawks won the flag just for her loyalty.

My granddad will have 60 next year!! Admittedly he's a life member
That woman is a bloody testament to AFL football in general
i tend to purchase a new jumper yearly, usually alternatives (trainging, away etc) next year i will be getting the home one again
My saints jacket is that old it doesn't even have a sponsers logo on it.
I remember going to a game at Telstra Dome (03 or 04 I think) and there was a loud Boganwood supporter behind us pointing out and publicly humiliating any Saints supporter within eyeshot that had new gear on. I cringed because he was so right in what he said about those "bandwagoners".

I tend to buy the new home jumpers every year, if there is change to it.
As for Fed Square, haha that was fun.

Will the new jumper have the gold AFL logo on it? or that only for the players to wear?

Players only.
im gonna get mine through the club, the official ones (which are usually $10 more) which will.
the official ones from the club are the non-match worn ones the players get, so they will

So when all of us Essendon supporters buy new jumpers because of the changed sponsor and apparel supplier, we'll all be bandwagon supporters.
And I'm sure that all of your clubs just hate it when you buy their gear every year. Geez they hate the money that they make out of it. I'm sure they give it to charity.
New gear = bandwagon supporter. Interesting logic.

Really? I thought that the whole point of this gold logo was so the players had something else just for them about the premiership.
Any Geelong fans have one with a gold logo?

Of course. You can't have the new jumper ever, you have to stick with the first ever jumper you get until it falls apart from being 10 sizes too small.

Does that include when Richmond last won a Flag.
If you want to see bandwagoners just wait till the Tiges win 3 games in a row.
