This was such a nice design I think it's tough to match it.

 

[Blubagger71]

I like it. Nice conflation of club symbolism and cultural artefacts. Tip my hat to the designer.

Really???

So do I..........and anything is better than that crappy grey (longjohn underwear like) clash jumper Carlton has been wearing this season.......no wonder the team has been looking so bereft of confidence having to play in that outfit !!! At least this jumper has our colours on it............

I was down in Geelong last week. Was expecting the horrid clash strip. To my pleasant surprise we came out in dark navy blue gear.

Same. May buy one if club can make it easy to get one in person.

I’d prefer to see the CFC logo a part of indigenous art.
Meaning club truly embraces heritage.
By that’s just me
Like have digeridoo,s spears, etc.
that I’d like to see

I thought the wolf grey jumper looked ok in the initial publicity photos just looked crappy when i saw the team run out wearing it.

However, the indigenous jumper is fugly from the get-go.

Busy seems to be the name of the game this year. Just had a look through all the other club versions, and there are only a handful that I actually like.

Adelaide's is cool - more so because the colours contrast and work really well together.
Collingwood, Gold Coast and St Kilda have kept theirs nice and subtle, with a very clean look.
NM and Richmond are a bit more overt, without covering the guernsey with filler.

A bunch of cluttered messes.

Then you've got the worst of the bunch...

Hawthorn appear to have some Dessert Totem Poles on theirs, and the Bulldogs opted for a metro train map.

Uninspiring year for it - hope that most clubs try to clean things up next year.

Absolutely hate it. Only brought one for the collection probably will never see the light of day again.

That monogram looks exactly like what we are currently using to me?

I really like it, even more so after seeing images of the past ones (which I also really liked at the time).

Look a bit harder at the detail and consider the representations - might do the trick!

Im a fan. I dig how the scar tree is prominent and gives a bit of wider exposure to other artefacts besides the more commonly known items. Scar trees have deep significance and often rural Aboriginal orgs have special sites located where they are (or even ship them in!).

I havent had a chance to look at the vid by the artist, but my interpretation of it being on the jumper is that it sort of says the club is a culturally safe space for Aboriginal players and workers.

So Im a big fan of it. But Im very ******* disappointed the club isnt selling any of the design in kids sizes. Were the only club only selling in adult sizes. Im not the type to wear a jumper to games but my kids are and they wouldve worn this all year (they love it too). Not happy Jan.

Thanks Aph.

Unfortunately, limited by (mature age) student life

I was ignoring my guilty conscience and was going to make a 'speed purchase' of the $120 version before I could talk myself out of it

Understandable fnm.

Looks like the reserve on all jumpers is $500.00
