Clash jumper this weekend

[Tank36]

"For Carlton, we have got the 'old' Collingwood jumper, which was white with black stripes. We'll wear white shorts tomorrow, the black socks with the white hoop, which I'm not overly rapt about because I don't think we need to, but anyway, we'll do it."

I might buy the white with black stripes, to go with my
black & white stripes....

Oh Eddie, take a leaf out of Manchester United's book

Isn't that the heritage jumper, it's a good looking one?

Sure is! i think it looks quite good actually.

 

[mm fan]

yeah i think its great. like the one in the 80s if only we had Daicos running around.

 

[nick_savo]

Awesome, I really like the white jumper with black stripes, looking forward to seeing it, did we wear a clash jumper last time we played them?

 

[Didz_is_God_4]

I love that jumper too, fond memories of last years game against WCE in the jumper

 

[nick_savo]

Was that the last time we wore it?

 

[Didz_is_God_4]

Was that the last time we wore it?

To the best of my knowledge, I know we didn't wear it on heritige round this year.

 

[nick_savo]

Yeh why is that?

It didnt even seem like Heritage round....

WTF was with StKilda's jumper, it was there away jumper, i thought they would have worn the three stripes

yeah that was odd hey, but then again it is st.kilda we talkn about. collingwood can get away with it though - not too many ways to wear black and white stripes

I think ill wear me heritage jumper this week even if it does have lonies number on it

 

[Didz_is_God_4]

Yeah i'll wear mine too, I brought one from Balls & Bumpers last season and have never seen another one since!

 

[1Percenter]

Brings back many great memories...

 

[Optimax]

I think we have only lost once in this jumper since we started bring it back and that was against brisbane in 03. lets hope it brings good luck again

 

[FIGJAM]

Legend!

i always liked the white with black stripes and white shorts. it looked like we were more menacing. menacing magpies. remember that.

 

[didaka]

Absolutely love the strip we're wearing this weekend. Would like to see it re-introduced.

Does anyone know why collingwood changed the jumper from 90's to the mainly black jumper of today??

 

[1Percenter]

as i have said previously, this should always be our away strip when playing against teams whos home colour is predominately dark, while our home guernsey should be the black strip with white stripes with black shorts (even against teams such as Geelong whose home strip is predominately white - they should wear white shorts too when playing in their home colours - particularly against us)
both ways we keep our black and white stripes, while looking different

Sponsors logos look better and to eliminate a clash that people were complaining about against the Roos and cats

 

[jefffff34]

By far a better playing strip.

 

[dale_thomas13]

Would look much better with black shorts

I remember something at the time about them being a bit more similar to the jumpers of the 50s (or maybe 30s) which appeared to be more darker. The difference was there was a white panel with a black number.

Please, don't tell me Rusling is the next player to do a Trent Croad and become a model.
