I wouldn't mind a teal pre-season guernsey or something, but beyond that our guernseys are great now.

yeah for clarification, I only want a new pre-season strip, something teal based would be cool. our home and away kits are set for life.

Personally I like our blue training guernseys

gotta find a way to use a teal jumper with black shorts, black socks.

this is one of our most underrated kits. i love the black and white sashbolt. of all the jumpers designed with the 'modern-meets-traditional' angle, this has to be right up there.
This guernsey made me feel embarrassed to be a port supporter.
 
it was designed by a kid though, that planet teal set up wad a beautiful thing. I'd love the club to wear a fan made jumper once a year...

The planet teal competition paid off in the most spectacular of ways from a marketing perspective.

I'm pretty happy just wearing the current home and away in the AFL from now on, with the odd appearance for the prison bars the only thing i'd be willing to interrupt that for.

It takes a long, long time to build an affinity with a guernsey design and that will be damaged by giving other designs too much airtime. I didn't mind this sort of thing at all when we had an average-to-poor guernsey, but now that we have a great one we should be wearing it every week.

That said, i'm happy to experiment with things like colours (teal based, silver based, blackout etc) or even special variations on the regular design like Jake Neade's NT guernsey. But let's build our tradition around what is one of the best guernsey designs in the league.

why?

ugly guernsey?
sburger? or
no one in the crowd?

For mine it embodied everything that John James and the ponytail set were trying to do in de-Portifying the club and emphasising Power FC.

I get that a kid designed it, but that choice along with the fist effort the year before/after(?) was incredibly on message.

Making our guernsey totally unique is not F*****G with it it, it is an imperative in a competitive market. The front of the guernsey screams Port Adelaide. The back could be St Kilda, Carlton or Port Adelaide.

From a marketing perspective, our guernsey must be instantly recognisable as PAFC from every angle.

Then put a meth lab and a dole bludger on the back.
 
I was under the impression we were living in the 21st century, but still seem to be playing by stereotypes of a past generation.

Elizabeth anyone? Crow territory?

Did they have meth labs in the olden days?
