Discussion Round 10, 2017 (Indigenous Round): Photos and Discussion

[MWPP]

Just noticed that Melbourne's Indigenous Guernsey has some more red on the back/the side too

Might make the Melbourne v. Gold Coast clash even worse

 

[Liger]

Geez, If some of these get any more garish, they'll look like Damn Edna at the Mardi gras.

ANY IDEAS FOR THIS ROUND?
THIS IS LAST ROUND ANYWAY

It's not even school holidays yet....

Also just out of interest re: Gold Coast clash jumper discussion (sorry to digress from the Indigenous round) but didn't they have a yellow clash/away during their spell in the TAC and VFL?

 

[Fizzler]

How good is the Richmond one!? I think that's the best one by any club so far.

Are there any other instances pre-2017 of a player changing their guernsey number for a one-off?

Mick Martyn wore 30, the week after his father passed away.



Carey wore 40 in the Ansett Cup to honour Mazda's 40th anniversary in Australia.

Now that you mention it, I actually recall that Mick Martyn one. From memory it was Ben Robbins who had to vacate his jumper for a week.

Yep, spot on.

Yup. View attachment 373833

Without the red side-panels that looks pretty god. With red...I dunno. Anyway we digress.

Pretty sure he was buried with that exact guernsey as well, nice tribute

My God that is awful.

GWS Indigenous.

I love the front and back in isolation.
But the front being white and the back being dark clashes with most things.

Hate that aspect.
Makes me think of ports home Guernsey (front mostly black, back mostly white - clashes with most things)

A white front won't clash with WCE royal.
A dark/orange/charccoal (whatever it is!) back won't clash with WCE royal.
Even together, they won't clash with WCE royal.
So there's no issue. Especially with a one-off jumper where the opposition is known, as is what they're wearing.

It's also reminiscent of GWS' home Guernsey (since they pair it with charcoal shorts, but the back is still mostly orange)
Having said that, I agree with this

5. Demons (nothing bad about it, nothing too great either)
4. GWS (clean, sharp, love the back)
3. Lions (busy and full on, but works)
2. Suns (looks a bit St Kilda'ish, but great effort despite the hideous logo)
1. Bombers (can't stand 'em, but what an awesome jumper - last year's was solid as well)

Richmond's looks a little Aztec or something, preferred the 2015 one of theirs.
Saints I can't quite work out. Feel the colour mix of red/white/black is a wicked combo for Aboriginal art, but looks kinda half complete.

 

[Great8]

I know it's dark blue but on TV last night the Crows guernsey looked almost black rather than blue.

 

[Storm20]
