As it seems the AFL is currently enforcing (rather an encouraging) Away Game guernsey's for every AFL Team, are we EFC BigFooty member's happy with Essendon's current Away guernsey?

I think it's okay, but it could be more red. I have quickly drafted an Away guernsey of my own design, which is pretty much just a variation of our Team's Logo on a Red top.

What do you think? Do you have your own design?
If so, I would really like to see it, and thought we could use this thread as a base to discuss.
 
I think the current away guersey is laughable. We are only going to wear it 3 times per year at the most so something completely different does'nt bother me. What you have suggested is pretty good. Hopefully the club come up with something like that.
 
Good design but the logo probably has to stand out more.
Yeah I agree. Maybe the logo should be grey or white, otherwise it just looks like an outline instead of a logo.

the current away strip is the way it is because it states in the constitution of the EFC that the jumper must be black with a red sash. thats why just an expanded sash was the pick.
 
I don't like that design.

But I'm firmly in the camp of having a distinctive clash strip, if we have to in fact have it.

I quite like the designs that incorporate silver, although I don't know that I would feel entirely comfortable having a jumper that uses any other colours than red and black.

But if we're changing the design (which I'm not sure is necessary, but there you go) let's have something decent!
 
how do you make your own gernsey

I do like the Red with the silver logo.

The problem with most jumpers now is that they have incorporated more black and dark colours (Collingwood, Melbourne, St Kilda) over the years.

I still think that us wearing the red shorts (instead of white) would help enought to break the clash.

Perhaps the AFL should look at the full kit and not just the jumper to help with the clashes.

All i can say is get ready for more white clash jumpers similar to what the Saints, Freo, Carlton,Brisbane and the Dogs have done.
The word i hear was the AFL where happy to let the clubs go their own way initially and not force the design becasue they knew that Collingwood and Essendon would come up with ordinary options. The fact that the Crows came up with a clash jumper that actually is a clash with another side ( Brisbane) and the little fiasco with the Eagles expect the AFL to step in soon ;)
Get ready for us to be wearing a silver jumper with some sort of balck and red logo design:eek:

I've always liked Peru's national soccer strip(White with red sash). Dunno if it'd stop the clashes though

You'd think the Sydney/ South Melbourne supporters would get arky over that.
 
I've just used MS Paint for my designs.
