Exactly. Adidas had the best template in the league and arguable the best supporters meechandise and they undeedlessly changed it. That's what we have a problem with. Sometimes things don't need messing with.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned but the Dogs jumper is different this year.
The hoops are lower on the jumper compared to last year, as seen in these two photos.

With the hoops lower it also means the numbers don't overlap with the red hoop either.
Might want to add this to your site Mero

I can't believe we've had the same rubbish nob cup guernsey for 4 years. I wish port was wearing the 7 year old girl jumper next week so we could've worn the new clash strip

I think as far as a NAB jumper goes, it's pretty good.
Also the dogs need a new shorts sponsor by the looks of it.

teal vs yellow would be a novelty

where do we sign
Looks s**t!! The hoops are way too low and look weird. If the reason for moving them down was to stop the number over lapping the hoop at the back, why would they do it so the base of the number sits on the hoop?? There needs to be a gap. 2014 version much better, even with the number overlap.
norths jumpers seem to be a bit too tight.
they're riding up on the players and they're frequently having to pull them down.

I prefer the overlap.

It is the same as the Dons' one. Well, very similar. Essendon's says that their jumper shall be a red sash on a black background or as required by the governing body of the competition they're playing in. Richmond's says their jumper shall be yellow and black and the design approved by the AFL.
He's probably assumed it says "the jumper shall be black with a yellow sash and nothing else ever or the world will explode".

Thats actually a big difference. That requirement for a red sash is one of the main reason their clash jumpers have been some of the most hideous ever created, the red sash is non-negotiable.
With ours, we could have polka-dots, as long as they are yellow and black

Even with Essendon's, if they entered, say, the BigFooty Football League, and the BFFL mandated that no team shall have red on their kit, their constitution still would allow for them to create a kit without any red.

but they are not entering a new league, they are already in the league
Also if you read that statement, it could be argued that the only alternate is one mandated upon them by the AFL
Given the AFL grasp for design, do we really want them dictating jumper design to clubs (rather than just approving it)?
Also even if the club had the power to do it, it wouldnt last - any board that removed the red sash would be turfed by the members at an EGM (just like ours would if teal suddenly became the main colour of our jersey).
Just ask WCE supporters how much they like a board imposing an unpopular design on the club

It was an example!
What I am saying is that the red sash on black COULD be changed, without breaching the constitution - IF the AFL requires them to. The red sash is non-negotiable unless the AFL requires that it not be there. Same with the black background.
Just like with Richmond. The only difference is Richmond could choose whatever pattern they like, so long as it's yellow and black, and not be breaching their own rules. If the AFL made Richmond have a white clash, then they'd also not be breaking their own rules as there's room made for requirements of the governing body. As with Essendon.

The numbers on Gold Coast's guernsey look strangely lower than normal.

The thing is as well, constitutions can be amended. There just has to be the will to do it.
Personally, I find Essendon's insistence on only ever wearing a red sash on a black background "'cos that's what we've always done in every game ever", a tad childish. I mean, an inversion of colours is still the same design, and the same colours. It would still scream 'we are Essendon'.

I reckon the numbers on North's guernsey look lower with Canterbury too. Hard to tell from today's stream though, could just be a combination of not having the NMFC there and no blue on the back of the collar. Was a hell of a lot of white above the numbers though.

Which then also had an effect on the stripes on the back of the jumper, where they looked awfully short.
With the White shorts and the cut off middle strip, it's an incredibly white looking North Melbourne.

Mazda logo is harder to read from behind than before - hasn't worked like they thought
Ziebel and Dal Santo have different socks on, Dal's have ccc on the front and Jack's don't have anything.
also looks as if Dal's are up all the way but only go a little more than half way up his shins
Any update on the Hawthorn Clash?
