A win's a win I guess.
Which club has the worst guernsey?

Our old one was a mess, especially changing the away jumper to a different garish design every year, but I don't know how anyone could consider our new jumper anything but simple and sleek.

GC. I like Carltons

I'm with you. Freo's rebrand was a success, though I do miss the anchor being incorporated into the design. The red and green elements made it too busy.

I'm seeing a lot of hate for GC's, and a lot of love for Carlton's over on the other thread. And yet both are essentially a plain guernsey with a logo on the front.

Pre-expansion teams, then it’s crows without a doubt.
That jumper says to me some designer, who knows nothing about small children, was tasked with coming up with something that “the kids” will be into. It’s terrible.
Worse though is the Suns. Also makes me want to order large fries, and I’m trying to knuckle down on a healthy eating phase.
GWS has me confused. The Couldabeeners had it spot on. Their entry into finals footy a few years back throws into very sharp relief the fact that whatever they came up with, that is by no measure at all a footy jumper whatsoever.

Even Jako hated it.
It was so strange, I was living overseas at the time. When I left the eagles had a good looking jumper and then I tune in to watch some highlights and they are wearing a rainbow... why they changed to that I’ll never know. Was it just 1 season?

It was a couple I think. That was the away jumper, with the tri-panel as the home. No wings jumper at all
All these years later I still can't understand how it happened. Thankfully the #returnthewings campaign was a resounding success and we got back to our original jumper and ditched the navy blue from our colours as an added bonus!
No doubt some young marketing guru telling the board “this is what the young kids want.” The same marketing gurus who had the final say on the suns and giants jumpers.It was a couple I think. That was the away jumper, with the tri-panel as the home. No wings jumper at all

A hundred per cent it was some marketing dipsh!t. Or dipsh!ts.
I will be forever grateful that horrendous heap of semi-digested skittle spew is long dead. That jumper was worse than Ben Cousins' drug history.

Let’s be honest which jumper is worst should be the least of your concerns at the moment.
With no bias towards team performance, i think the voting system is on track with this one:
- Gold Coast - Understandably it was probably made to appeal to a growing Asian audience but it's an optical migraine at best
- Adelaide - A chaotic mess of colours sends my OCD and anxiety into overdrive
- Hawthorn - Brown doesn't really need any commentary and speaks for itself... but then to pair it with Gold... where's the vomit emoji?

WC had the worst during the Ken Judge years.

2 years that every WC supporter has erased from memory. Seriously, wtf were they thinking?

Truly odd thing to say about a clubs colours. I guess from our point of view we kinda want opposition teams and supporters not to be happy with seeing our colours.
I wonder if that's driving the votes for the Hawks. I've never seen the issue with brown and gold.

I really wanted to vote Hawthorn for their bodily waste inspired abomination; but Gold Coast truly does have a god awful design.

Where did I comment about club colours?
Hawthorn have disgusting colours but for a Geelong v Hawthorn game somehow it all comes together.
Gold Coast’s colours look weak.

Yeah but its not just about that. Carlton have a classic, clean and dignified crest on the front, GC have this ugly post modern, multi coloured weak looking logo. Also White on navy blue is much more effective and strong than yellow with little bits of light blue and white on ketchup red.
