News New jumpers for 2012

IMO, i think red is a light colour, but why would the Suns/Swans need a clash jersey then.

For when the Suns play the Swans, maybe?

 

[akkaps]

But the Swans have had a clash jersey for a few years now.

Sometimes they wear it away vs Brisbane.

 

[hitthepost]

Problem then comes that Brisbane's clash guernsey is white, and the Swans have a large amount of white on their guernsey. So Brisbane can't wear their clash vs Sydney. Always thought that North, Geelong, Brisbane and Gold Coast need to minimise white/red in their kits vs Sydney. North did this year with their inverted kit. Brisbane just wore white shorts (good job there boys!). Don't think Sydney have hosted GC yet. And Geelong wear a predominantly white guernsey with Navy shorts.

Right. So you're upset about grammar, and not social decay?

Poor grammar is a sign of social decay.

Red isn't light or dark. It stands out against black and white and a lot of other colours.

Looks great I would keep the outline of the sash but make it silver

 

[lionbear]

That's the modern lion. The head doesn't stick out far enough to be the Fitzroy lion.

I hadn't noticed, I guess the jumpers that crap I don't look closely and just hope it goes away.

Why aren't Carlton wearing their clash tonight?

They didn't wear it against Collingwood - they won't wear it tonight

 

[Smeagle]

Hard to see them wearing that ever again. Vale Baby Blue, we hardly knew ye.

Conversely, will we ever see the Bulldogs in their new (old) home jumper with the white shorts? They seem to have gone down the Fremantle path with their white 'clash' jumper treating it as a permanent away, even in Melbourne.

It'd be a classic look - they would never have worn the current home combination before this year, black shorts was the convention.
I think it would look 'real neat'. Unfortunately, the Doggies have failed to impress me since the jumper change... laziness with the socks and now a hackjob of a logo.

I am disappointed in GWS, not rolling with their classic orange today versus Freo. That would have been quite a sight.

GWS clash is one of my favourite clash jumpers in the AFL.

 

[Lion Cub 16]

GWS clash is one of my favourite clash jumpers in the AFL.

Agree, love it. Plain, simple and effective

 

[Greater Gattsby]

love the jumper but their white shorts are a bit too plain though, needs orange lines with a charcoal G

 

[Willo #6]

GWS clash is seriously overrated.

 

[E92_]

Why?

 

[Willo #6]

It's not bad, far from it. But it's just so generic. Just looks like a template jumper with the G whacked on the front. There are many worse jumpers in the league but GWS could have made something much better.

 

[E92_]

Fair points, I just love the simple design of the jumper.

 

[Silent Alarm]

GWS clash is one of my favourite clash jumpers in the AFL.

You're easily pleased.

 

[E92_]

It's one of the better clash jumpers in the AFL, it actually does it's job, doesn't introduce a non club colour and it's a simple bold jumper.

Was told this has an all Gold back, which is the Cancer Council's colour, and also West Coast's first Home jumper. So it should look something like this.
Well, should look a lot like this, really.

I guess they want to make it a one off being for the cancer council, but how awesome would have 1987 jumper with today's eagle looked
