News BLK placed under external administration

[Fizzler]

Wouldn't look too bad if the sponsors were halfway between the collar and the start of the maroon.

I'd only like that if they pushed the yoke up a bit so nothing is too low.

 

[TheLoungeLizard]

That collar is pretty rubbish isn't it

Do these kids all wear the same pants they did to their casual job at Target three years ago? Shocking fits. I hate the way they make them go up their in the shit club polo and terrible slacks; it just reminds me of having to go to presentation nights and rocking up to finals in basically the exact same thing as a teenager... it just looks bad. It looks even worse when they chuck a terribly fitting jumper two sizes (in SPS' case) too big on top.

I do like the unique tradition of wearing your old team's polo on stage but it just looks terrible. Maybe there's a middle ground of having them wear suits like the NBA but with their local club producing a special tie or badge or something?

Maybe a club blazer?

Nah, too expensive. School ones cost between $170 and $200.

Matt Finnis, St Kilda's CEO, was on SEN this morning about BLK.

"It's clearly a concerning aspect going forward", the clubs are working together with the AFL, who are taking the lead on dealing with BLK. "There's no shortage of interest from other companies" should BLK not be able to carry through. Hoping for clarity before Christmas.

If St Kilda have had offers, I don't think Richmond and Adelaide will struggle getting new partners as well.

Based on that statement, I'd say BLK won't have a presence in 2017.

Yeah for sure. Every club will still be scrambling for a deal, so they won't be as lucrative as they should be, but you're not going to have any problem getting someone on board. The northern clubs might be a bit screwed, though.

It would be very surprising for them to finally get a big international brand e.g. adidas
Since they left Puma they've had Sekem, Piping Hot, Skins, ISC, and BLK (for now). No big brands.

Didn't SEKEM made the Piping Hot and SKINS gear?

FWIW I've heard Richmond may have signed with Puma, this was a couple of months back. Richmond may have seen this coming.
