May just be Richmond's best one yet, and last years boomerang one was brilliant.

That's brilliant. Good to see BLK doing things right.

I don't think BLK had anything to do with besides printing the design on a jumper.

They could have come up with another idea, and forced Richmond to wear that.

Another charcoal jumper for Shitmond.

Can jumper manufactures force clubs to wear a certain design? I've never heard of anything like that.


BLK most likely had nothing to with the actual artwork and all they did was print it on a jumper.

tl;dr

Yet you liked the post?

Javelin , manufacturers are making jumpers that play too much with actual design of the jumper. We have seen how Hawthorn now have braces on their jumper and how Adelaide 'have' side panels. We don't like seeing these designs tampered with.

But to your point about the same colours on jumpers, until we see Collingwood, Carlton and Essendin wearing their clash jumpers against each other every time they play, it will be very unlikely that see change in this matter.

I can't agree with you more on both of these points. But I think there's a big difference between Carlton v Essendon and Hawthorn vs Adelaide when it comes to the need for a clash jumper.

I saw the picture and thought it looked great, then I saw the colours of the real thing.

Previously the club has had comps for artists to submit designs for this jumper. Not sure if it still happens, but my understanding is same as yours, blk isn't designing this - just making it

I like it a lot. I just think it could do with a bit more yellow. Maybe on the cuffs and collar?

 

[Dylan8]

BLK logo in yellow looks spectacularly better than white. Richmond should do that on their home, as well as yellow numbers. Just eliminate the white from the kit.

Can't have yellow numbers on a yellow sash.

Get rid of the back sash then

Yep, need gold BLK on Crows jumper with gold toyota logo as well.

Add the full hoops which are coming back next year and I think we'll have one of the best Crows home jumpers in history.

No sash on the back sucks.

 

[MKMatty]

Have the split sash as someone else mocked up. With the gap for the numbers.

 

[lionbear]

Its not a sash anymore if you do that.

Number is better, but jumper doesn't look right, need to have the sash no matter what.

NUMBER PANEL!!!

Still blends a bit IMO, looks better in white.

I kind of meant it sarcastically. If you were to use yellow numbers EMGEE_6's comment would be most likely

If that were to be used, the number panel needs to be a lot bigger. From the bottom of the cuffs to at least top of them stretching the whole way from each side

 

[mcgarnacle]

I feel like this is the best example of what's wrong with the West Coast tri-panel. Also are the sides cut differently this year? The curve makes it messier, and leaves more yellow on one side:

You could say the same about St Kilda to a lessor extent. Their tri panel isn't replicated on the back though. It used to be in the early days.

 

[mcgarnacle]

All stupid, because the tri panel is an unnecessary design given what's hanging in the WCE closet

I mentioned in one of the threads (couldabeen this one) on this boards just a few days ago that branding is probably a major reason for going navy. Not only does another club have a predominantly royal blue main kit, but that club also also has 'West'ern in its name.

Not utilising the wings regularly on the navy singlet is probably so as not to bastardise their premiership kit. That's a good move IMO. A shame the effort theyve come up with is the tri-panel. It's an assymetric design and is horrible.

 

[mcgarnacle]

WC played Carlton a year or two back, and wore their home jumper with a yellow stripe on the RH side. I thought awesome, they've finally realised that under the shithouse Subiaco lighting on tv against a dark team (Carlton, Richmond, etc), it's a bloody hard game to watch when they're kicking left to right...but no, it was just a promo jumper...

Subiaco lights ARE shit. This is true.
