Feel if they swapped the red and blue around on the collar and cuffs (i.e blue cuffs, blue neckline and red collar), this would have been a ripper but it would have been the same as 1925 jumper. I assume they will replicate that for the Round 2 game and is the reason why they didn’t go with...
Looks like the dogs will return to red collars (toilet seat gone) and cuffs on the home jumper with the V/AFL logo, and a return to the 2016 clash jumper.
Not sure if it does translate across codes but that looks similar to the T20 Australian shirts. Fingers crossed it does and we've gone red with blue.

Hope the fact Darcy is wearing the same as this years' jumper doesn't mean we're stuck with the toilet lid for another season. Although Asics have a history of updating the collar after two seasons, it would seem odd if this photo-op didn't include next year's kit.
The only thing I dislike is the fact it doesn't specify 100 years in the V/AFL like the Bulldogs' one. Looks like the club was formed in 1925 rather than 1902.
Mero is a legend.

My predictions/want for our uniforms in 2025. Would love to see a 3rd red kit based on the 1898-1900 jumper but doesn't fit with the 100 years in the V/AFL theme. Hope Asics come up with a better collar given they change it every two years.
