Not sure if anyone has mocked this up but I'd like to see this. A small part that does not intrude on the whole of the design.

The secret ingredient is crime
Really like the approach St Kilda went with this. They obviously realised that the rainbow would be over kill and went with something much simpler and better looking.

Sorry for answering your question dude. And sorry for commenting on a jumper design in a thread about a jumper design. How silly of me.

AFL numbers are owned by the AFL.
I believe the AFL want to own the numbers used on jumpers so they can officially licence them.

I would have liked to have seen something like Barrybran suggested, but also get how it is not necessarily identifiable as St. Kilda. The Pride flag across the whole back like they did with the purple for Maddie Riewoldt last year could look good IMO.
At first I thought "how I want to be" was a fitting motto from St Kilda to link between the club and the theme, but maybe not as much as I initially thought. It's more "how/who I am"...people spend a lot of time NOT wanting to be LGBTIQ, sadly. Minor point, but "how I want to be" is accepted and with full equal rights. It was never a burning desire to be gay and then one day the gay fairy came down and granted my wish.
Fancyscum, I don't want to rubbish your idea in any way, because it's a thoughtful and clever use of the club slogan...that's just my two-bob worth and my feelings as I thought about it a little more from where I sit

I was definitely coming at from the acceptance and equal rights point of view, guess it would have been better to do a write up of my thought process behind that design as well. I didn't really think about how else it might have been interpreted due to the accepting environment I've grown up in. Also I hardly see you as rubbishing my idea at all, the whole point of all these guernseys is to create a discussion about the topic, your comment is a lot more useful than one about a Nintendo game from twenty years ago!At first I thought "how I want to be" was a fitting motto from St Kilda to link between the club and the theme, but maybe not as much as I initially thought.

Definitely. I'm sure you never intended for it to have bad meaning or anything else, I was just adding my two-bob
And nothing wrong with saying it looks like Rainbow Road...coz it does!

thanks.
never thought of it that way.
They should have got imaginative and used some high school science to explain the 'story' behind their design... and they should have had the white panel as their rainbow piece.
"White is produced when all colours of the visible light spectrum are combined. These colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Therefore, whilst our guernsey appears red, white, and black each week, the white is always representing the colours of the rainbow and our support for the LGBT community"
The numbers are going to be a nightmare for commentators.

I really like it.
Interesting to read that the club are offering to heat press these numbers on any guernsey on the night, and also will have a rainbow themed beanie and scarf design for sale.

Is this a one off or will it be yearly?
I like the unique approach By St Kilda.
