But they weren't proper football uniforms. They were cricket shirts

At least we have never changed the shape of our sash, Essendon since the puma days have not had a proper sash.
The first Adidas sash was horrible, and this one is almost as bad.
Can't see why they just don't use a normal sash shape like they did when they were with puma.

Adidas were once the best at keeping a jumper perfect, and then....

Looks better with the shorts. I'll have to see how it looks against St. Kilda, but right now, it looks like the grey is too dark and should be lightened up a bit. It's starting to grow on me, though.

So Essendon are going to honour a different legend every two years. Does this mean the club will alter the design every so often?
That's pretty cool, and it'd be a minute change if so... where'd you read that, SA?
Bombers supporters need to chill out, it's still the same design, I don't think they're trying to trick us by branding it a 'heritage guernsey' more just using the text of all the premiership player names to make it as close to black as possible.
We've got the best kit in the league now, which I'm sure wouldn't just be a biased outlook, and either way this absolutely smashes that putrid mega-sash design.

Hate to break it to you mate, but no you don't. And probably biased, because I feel Carlton's home is one of the classiest in the AFL, which I can admit is a biased opinion of mine.

You'd think they will, they have to sell the new ones.
They could care less about the clash, it's about the retail sales

Some more info on the Essendon 'Heritage' jumper; The sash continues onto the back of the jumper, it has a red with a black outline EFC monogram on the back of the jumper above the numbers, player names aren't on the back and the jumper has some info/stats on Coleman inside the neck of the jumper (don't know if this is for PI/retail or both).
But overall, home and clash Essendon beats Carlton comfortably. Which I think is what Bowakawa was talking about.
I still think Melbourne has the best overall kit fwiw.

Looks great IMO. Love the heritage element of the jumper, adds some class to the class jumper that most clubs don't have.
Adelaide Football Club, take note.

I seriously doubt Richmond's clash jumper would have solved the clash on Saturday. Richmond clash more with Adelaide than Essendon.
Richmond need a new design for Adelaide games IMO.
The clash cost Adelaide a goal. Doughty clearly thought King was an Adelaide player.

I want Richmond to adopt a yellow guernsey with black sash and black collar/cuffs for clashes..
Yellow shorts and yellow socks with three black hoops.
Wouldn't it be an awesome looking jumper?

Essendon's first jumper was PLAIN NAVY BLUE - they adopted the sash after 2 years so they looked different to other teams. They don't own it.
Richmond's first ever jumper in 1885 was a sash. They reverted to a sash during the 1910s.

Yep we wore a sash in 1885.
Essendon wore one in 1875. 10 year difference. Big whoop.

Looks really good in that video but I still think it will clash with St Kilda.

The top one but I reckon it would look better with black collar and cuffs.
Good work!

Actually I've changed my mind I think.. Looks good with yellow collar and cuffs.
