White number panels to be worn in all future Showdowns

[Dylan8]

Not in this capacity. Mock one up, cuffs and collar would look silly with the white chevron I promise.

I have. It doesn't.

 

[Kickpuncher]

Takes away from the completeness of the guernsey imo.

Predominantly one coloured guernseys shouldn't have number panels. I mean look how good Hawthorn's looks now. Imagine the Freo guernsey with a number panel...

 

[Scott03]

I don't hate it, but it just seems completely pointless. Either wear the home jumper or wear the prison bar. One or the other. Hybrid designs are just silly.

It means more sales. Even if it's just a handful for sale.

Show me. Chevron blending into cuffs. Carn mate.

 

[Power Raid]

yuck

Keep BiB as BiB not BiBwWNP

its a tacky Frankenstein

 

[Zakk Wylde]

Would look good with this design on the front

This should be worn for all Showdowns.... And perhaps 2-3 other games too.

Hawthorn re-adding the old timey black and white number panel that was completely separate from their colour scheme was Sooz-level moronic.

Our number panel is at least part of our colour scheme.

I quite like it. I think I'll stick with my 2014 BiB guernsey for the time being though.

I'll upload it when I get home m8 the chevron to white trim compatibility issue is overstated more then brad's obsession for teal. The main advantage of it lies at the back of the jumper anyway, as it blends the panel in more naturally.

Showdowns and away games where we wear BiB?

Any chance the AFL decided this year that the Crows and Power guernseys clash, so the white number panel was added to ensure both clubs could continue wearing traditional strips?

 

[El_Scorcho]

Yeah I don't really like it. It's pointless.

We also now have what, 5 guernseys on the go if you count the PBs? I quite liked the simplicity of 2 guernseys for a few years.

I wouldn't like it with a white collar and cuffs either.

Also it's going to look really, really stupid in home showdowns if we have a white number panel and the crows are wearing white shorts. Introducing a block of white for each team is not a good idea.,

You can never rule it out.

"Why? We seem to be wearing a different guernsey in every game we play these days. Just leave it alone, we already have a perfect guernsey." - Facebook User.

This guy gets it.

"why cant we just wear our premiership gurnsey every game? why did it even change haha. the old one was clearly the best" - Facebook user.

This guy doesnt.

I can't see it selling anymore than the teal guernsey either.

Yeah what I dislike about this other than the lack of trim is how we're not in regular kit against Adelaide, and also that issue of blocks of white in a home game.

Put trim on it and use it as a genuine alt or don't bother IMO.

1. Home
2. Away/Alternate
3. Clash
4. Heritage/Retro
5. Preseason
6. One-off/Promo (Indigenous, etc)

Seems pretty standard for a club with 4 colours and a continually evolving guernsey scheme.

 

[Power Raid]

We might be asked to wear richmond's guernsey against the crows to avoid a clash

 

[Zakk Wylde]

"can we change the V stripe too while we're out changing things abot the guernsey? seems everyone has a V or sash strip now, the old Power one looked so much better, even the training guernsey with the lightning bolt looks better, imo"

FB

 

[JimmyBeerCans]

lol it looks ok but i'm in the "what's the point crew", leave strong guernsey's alone I reckon

 

[Ljc_86]

surely the next step to eventually wearing the prison bars in a showdown...

This sort of shit getting bandied about is the reason why people around here are extremely hesitant to hear jumper ideas

 

[ozph1870]

cant believe people are whinging about this.
oh too much white, oh miss match ra ra, half this, half that something else, oh too many different guernseys oh ra ra ra ra boo who...needs more teal...
im sure people just whine for the sake of whining. it looks good, its only two games a year, it will probobly outsell the regular home guernsey if every other time they've embraced the past is to go by, its good for the club.

 

[finbarr]

I'm guessing we asked the AFL if we could wear the prison bar/wharf pylon jumper and future showdowns, they said "no", we came back with this, and they said "yes".

Edit - OR the crows kicked up a stink at us wearing the prison bar in future showdowns and we came back with this alternative.

were slowly creeping it back in. this is war of attrition. Im genuinely starting to believe the return of above for all home games is the ultimate goal

ISC you've been so good until the teal disaster. STOP SHITTING IN OUR SHOES.
