No idea why we are looking to trial a short-sleeved guernsey in the preseason. Hawthorn did that 17 years ago and it failed.

Rugby top thing aside... great to see a local company involved and this happening.
Cotton on is a behemoth these days... great for a Geelong business

Think we conceded that a long time ago, only got to wear them against Brisbane because there Melbourne Jumper doesn't come with Royal blue shorts.
Sleeves don't work, just need to see Hawthorn 15 years ago, but if it sells jumpers wear them in the NAB cup, hoping the talk of wearing it in a home and away match gets squashed very very quickly.

Guernsey looks much better than the design flaw at the shoulders of this years one.

Which, of course, is entirely the point of the exercise.

I like it, will get one no doubt. NAB or home and away, no issue for me, they should make a blue one too with Geelong across the front.

The big "G" on the front is ridiculous, are we now comic book crime fighters?

I'm with you. Worries me not.
Don't mind it.
Ahhhh something new! Why do new things, why, why, why?! If only we could go back to wool jumpers with a collar that laced up at the front. Everything since then has been a total disaster.
...Seriously dont mind the idea of short sleeves (though the pattern design is pretty fugly but they can work on that). If short sleeves mean we can have names on the back then im all for it.

Nothing new. We've had the big 'G' on our hats for years now.
Not a huge leap to go to a shirt.
