Surprised about so many people liking the Timor-Leste guernsey. Essentially it isn't that much different in design principles to the Brisbane guernsey which everyone hates 
Dominated by a giant logo and split in half to two colours.

Don't know why you would want the Demons to change their clash, they have one of the best clash jumpers in the AFL and changing to an all red jumper would most likely create more problems than it solved, but don't get me wrong your design is pretty good.

Brisbane's old had a lot more tradition. Timor Leste's also appears traditional.
Agree 100%. I also am a big fan of Melbourne's clash. And I would imagine that jumper clashing with Essendon quite badly, especially with the dark side panels. It looks good though, would be perfect for a pre-season jumper.

Introduces a non-club colour though, which gives me ths s***s!!! I've said it a hundred times but I also dislike most predominately white guernseys. When I posted it on the Melbourne board, they said the same thing and would prefer it over their current one. Seriously though, who would it clash badly with? Still better than their home guernsey against the bombers

Everyone hates the brisbane jumper because they started with this:
Then they changed to this:
Oops, wrong pic:
And people like the Timor-Leste jumper because their logo on the front doesn't look like this:
And thats why most people like the Timor-Leste jumper but not the brisbane jumper.

Yeah I probably shouldn't have compared it to Brisbane's, it is still quite a different design

The closest the Demons could get to a light clash jumper without using white would probably be a pink jumper...
Does anyone know if these jumper will be available for purchase? I remember at the International Cup in 2008 Sekem was selling the jumpers for every team that they supplied jumpers for. I got a Team Africa jumper, which is one of the favourites of my collection. Would love to get the Timor-Leste jumper aswell

To be honest, I loved the NZ one. It's definitely a change from seeing white and brown all the time.

White and brown? When's the last time that's been seen since the WSC era? And even then it was beige. I don't really know what you're getting at

I think he means the white and brown version that Hawthorn wears

NZ one is good, just like the blokes who will play in it . Hopefully I'll be in my own come next IC.

Just a question mate, how 'big' is footy in NZ? Do many people know about it or is there only a few small clubs which people play at? Also, do you get any/much coverage in the newspapers and on the TV??
Sorry, its a bit of a vague and maybe stupid question but I've always wondered
Apparently, it's big. There was something on the link where they said that either it's massive, or they created Aussie Rules, my bet is on the first option I'll try and find it

Yeah try to find me the link
Would be really interesting to hear from someone who lives there as well though.
I found some history, that Australian rules has a history in New Zealand dating back to the late 1860s, however modern competition was commenced in 1974 and is played during the summer to avoid clashing with the rugby season. Directly copied from Wikipedia
Also, the Maori's invented a game called Ki-o-rahi. Resembled rugby and Aussie Rules.
