Alphabet Man Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I once had an idea for Brisbane Lions to have there current home jumper as there home, but for away games in Melbourne, they wear the old Fitzroy jumper but with a yellow lion rather than the FFC. So basically there current but red instead of maroon.I have no idea why I thought that would be interesting. twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 Looks like some people still aren't clear on the concept of how clash jumpers work...http://www.heraldsun.news.com.au/footy/com...5E20322,00.htmlWhy on earth would the Pies have even considered switching to their white strip against a team wearing predominantly white???

Roars87 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 This quote is courtesy of Pinepower over at BigFooty...I have been listening to John James on 891 pre game.Stephen Williams asked about the jumper for heritage round as it was one of hie questions that he always asks.JJ replied that they have approached the AFL and did not get an answer that they liked and are still in talks.He said that apparently there was a verbal agreement between the late Ron Evans and a certain president of another AFL club that Port would not wear black and white again. He stressed that Port were not a party to the meeting.All wondered why another club could dictate terms.This is what I recall, I listened then typed.If this does turn out to be true I can safely say will hit the fan.

Primal Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 The Western Bulldogs will wear their clash jumper for the first time tomorrow night against Richmond.Obviously there's no actual clash between the two, but it seems that with very few Friday night games to get them some media coverage, the Dogs are taking the chances they can get to be the focus of attention.Essendon's clash strip will also be debuting this weekend, and possibly Carlton as well...

Alphabet Man Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I think the blue band needs to be the same thickness as the red.Essendon with there tick sash this week v us could be interesting. I think all they need to do is wear red shorts. twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeseHusker Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Funny how guarded the Dogs were with that jumper. It isn't exactly an earth-shattering revelation; most concepts I've seen (and one I've ever made myself) essentially were the same as that.

It isn't exactly an earth-shattering revelation; most concepts I've seen (and one I've ever made myself) essentially were the same as that.I guess this place is still too public a place to tell everything I know about this jumper design.Save to say, the American expression 'phoning it in' is particularly apt.The Bulldogs logo looks like this:All they've done is draw a blue rectangle so that the entirity of the blue section there is covered by the rectangle.I know a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guy, who has the Diadora eps of this design. And that's all they've done on it. The Bulldogs logo as above, is in the eps. Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphabet Man Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I just find that the red and blue bands should be the same thickness. At the moment it doesn't look right to me. twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 Watching it on TV now... Doggies look REALLY good. Only problem is the bottom of the blue numbers disappearing in the red band on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Watching it on TV now... Doggies look REALLY good. Only problem is the bottom of the blue numbers disappearing in the red band on the back.I looked at some of the game photos, and I really like them as well. The blue numbers do get lost, but really, what other colour could you use? you can't use red or white or even black because of the sponsor's logo. I saw, I came, I left.

Alphabet Man Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 otuline the number in white around the red band part, maybe twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr79 Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 They could have broken the red stripe and had a white number square and it would have looked better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphabet Man Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Essendon I thought had way too much red today. Especially the way Lloyd tucks his jumper in. I thought it was rather bright aswell.I thought the game was pretty crap. And why we played Gwilt over Voss in place of Brooks I have no idea. Ridiculous. twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was rather bright aswell.The jumper looks weird paired with the red shorts, but I do think the change in the colour balance was helpful. Would be interesting to see red shorts with the normal jumper in the same situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous.The game was fantastic, the jumpers & shorts combo was awful.StKilda should have worn their White jumpers. Or their Red ones. Or their Yellow ones. Or their Black ones with White shorts.
