What's the deal with roo jumper? Any logic to when they wear it?

It's not a clash today, but looks messy with white shorts.

I wish the back was either all blue or all white - hate this half / half shenagins.

 

[Mr Eagle]

The traditional long sleeves of North do not work well with this jumper.

Isn't it just an away jumper?

Remember just what is at stake on Sunday. For Freo, it’s not just a potential place in the eight, they could reclaim the trophy that should be on offer every time they play us.

 

[its been done]

Looks like a patch (likely related to Heppell's last game) is on the Essendon guernseys below the sponsor on the front

Just awful

Essendon need to be in their clash jumper

Just awful

Is that the traditional meme font? Gee that's poor

 

[parano1a]

Has Heppell achieved anything of note that deserves recognition as a logo on the jumper? Seems like a piss take.

I mean it’s kind of like Nathan Jones at Melbourne.
By all accounts Hep has been the only thing keeping the place from falling apart for the last decade.

 

[Gibbsy]

Hopefully the first and last Shaka on a footy jumper

 

[Freo16]

Essendon need to be in their clash jumper

I’d even go further and say that Essendon don’t have a jumper suitable for this matchup, they need a white jumper specifically for this game, or bring back the grey jumper as a second clash.

This is actually amazing.

On that same note, is the Lake Trophy still a thing between St Kilda and Sydney?

 

[justlookingaround]

Cogs in the long sleeve Netherlands jumper today, looks great

 

[TY24]

Essendon need to be in their clash jumper

More red would only make it worse.

Essendon need a proper clash jumper.

 

[cottoneyeYeo]

are carlton wearing a different jumper

 

[the_cleaner]

are carlton wearing a different jumper

looks like a sugar daddy with the members names on it or it got faded in the wash ? lol

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

Between the Hot Cross Bun, the Candy Stripes, and the Stickman, it's crazy that they went with the dud clash jumper they've had this year. The Candy Stripes look fantastic today.

 

[MKMatty]

Loving the St Kilda candy stripe.

 

[seaforthswan]

They look like sweat stains on TV

 

[Smartys Power]

When was the last Sugar Daddy? I feel like they were huge like 10 years ago, but have fallen away recently.

It seems like we're very big on rotation of our clash jumpers, we've been doing it for the last 10 years. Keeps the merch sales up I reckon. Clash jumpers typically last 2 years before we change to a new one.

Hawks had one a week or two ago, but before that it must’ve been a while. At a guess maybe Melbourne in 2020 with the flaming demon throwback they wore, but by that point they were far more sparse than they were around 2014.

 

[jumperfan]

Wouldn't be surprised if the Candy Stripes stick around as the full time clash kit next year.
