At least they stuck with their first design.

So we have official confirmation from the man who inaugurated the Crows himself - they are the state colours.
Debunks the cringeworthy argument that Crows should be able to wear the SoO guernsey because "it's not state colours".*
*not that I disagree with the Crows wearing it, I just think that the whole "not state colours" argument is ******* farcical.
Of course they're state colours (or close to it - blue is darker). We were a composite side chosen to represent the state.
That's an argument?

I never understood how anyone could argue the 'not state colours' point with a straight face.

State colours is irrelevan.
It's wearing the State Guernsey as if it were theirs to wear, as if the heritage and history was theirs to claim, that is the issue.

I'd love Port to do a white cuff, collar and number panel alternate jumper to wear with white shorts away.

Still with a black Torso?
Yep, like the elimination final PBs but with the BiB chevrons

Yeah. ISC stuffed up a whole bunch of merch last year, in regards to colours of cuffs and s**t.
But I gotta say, that looks awesome in real life. I campaigned for white cuffs/collar with BiB for a while because it was a prison bars fauxback, but that actually looks 10x better than I had imagined. Awesome.
Adding options 2 and 3 below to this thread as proposed jumpers that will never see the light of day, option 1 will be worn by the Dogs in round 6 this year (unfortunately). They all stink.

Off topic, but can I nominate "Be More Bulldog" as the worst club slogan of all time?
I thought we had some stinkers, but that barely makes sense to me.

Should be emphasising Footscray not Bulldog
Meh. It's definitely not great, but I'd say it's far better this year than Hawthorn's Made of Brown and Gold or Adelaide's Unleash 2015, not to mention Carlton's classic Can You Smell What the Blues are Cooking?

Not when they are trying to claim Ballarat and western Victoria.

If they got rid of the red bib it would look a lot better. That said though, If they got rid of the bulldog it would look a lot lot lot lot better.Adding options 2 and 3 below to this thread as proposed jumpers that will never see the light of day, option 1 will be worn by the Dogs in round 6 this year (unfortunately). They all stink.
If they got rid of the team, there wouldn't be this debate to start with.
I'm kidding. But yeah, I agree. They shouldn't have had a jumper so similar to their home. I doubt anyone's going to buy it.
