Keeping the bastards honest;)

Try again.
To take a great political lines from the 90's from the Democrats (who sucked at actually doing it, but who cares)
Just thought that it might be a good idea to see if the choice of the BF fans was the same jumper chosen by the "club". I realise this won't be totally accurate as the club poll has you nominating all 6 in order, but it might appease those who complain after that the choice was Triggys all along. It will either give those ammunition, or shut them up.

You really should include a link...

Fairly sure that quote comes from the 70s actually! There was actually a time when the Australian Democrats were still relevant.

I'd prefer one of the designs with less white in it. Seems like people like the version with the throwback logo - not a big fan personally, because it feels like fake heritage and i think the logo is too fussy.

Why do we think they WOULDN'T do what the fan vote for? What the hell do they care?

Anything but E which is ugly. Why are they all white based? C or D are my favourites.

Apparently requested by SANFL as to not to conflict with other clubs.

F for me - some semblance to AFL strip colours & E too busy.

V's too boring & we are not the Power!

Apologies to Mr X.

That one sounds like the most liked across all posters.

Be interesting to see what is selected - I'm sure people will claim it's rigged, no matter what is selected.

E is too complicated for a regular jumper IMO.

... & yes, I'm sure it will be rigged any way

NO votes for "A".

Lock it in.

 

[whitey_1975]

I thought that when reading through the thread on the jumper that E was being chosen more than others. Agree I don't like any of A B or C as they all look like the power jumper in different colours and A is just plain ugly with the thin stripes.

Agree with this and said it in the other thread. It's like creating a heritage guernsey instead of just wearing one identical to our 1991 design. We weren't around when that logo type was current so why invent one after. Put our old crow logo on it if they want to embrace our history.

That said none of them are amazing, probably go with the least looking one from the top line, or one of the bottom ones of it had our current AFC logo from other merchandise on it.

I don't get the whole "Power" look. It's not like they created it (officially copied from the Wallabies).

And the old State jumper was around years before that.

Can I just make a plea for supporters to ignore E

Its the clubs premier heritage logo and I don't see it right that reserves grade players wear a logo that the stars of the game don't get to wear, especially non listed fill in players.

But I reckon its the best design.

Perhaps our Home strip should have it too to make it a level playing field?

In that case I go for F.

Please let's not do a V. The V is played, man. So played.

F should be our clash strip for the big league too.

 

[beartoo]

I think the red--blue--red with the gold logo looks the best. Like others I find E is too busy.

 

[MRB37]

They never said they'd pick the one the fans voted for, just they'd consider the fans opinion while making their own decision. From what Sando has said, he prefers the A,B, C type of guernsey.

Mate. I'm on board with what you're saying. Initially I was drawn towards C, but before I 'offically' vote I have considered a range of things, and am now of the opinion that F is the best allround option.

So this election, I will be voting for F

Club should look up the definition of the word vote.

"a formal expression of opinion or choice, either positive or negative, made by an individual or body of individuals"

Seems spot on.

Being an mostly white Guernsey rather than the red above, a V-look will look too much like the Power (away)IMO.

 

[BrissyCrow]

Of all the jumpers I prefer C. I think it has the boldest/strongest impact. Unfortunately it looks too much like the Power jumper and for that reason alone I would not vote for C. That leaves the hoops and I prefer F however I would like to see less white so if I stuck to the F design I would like to see the 2 yellow stripes made as thick as the red and the blue just to reduce some of that white. I think the location of the stripes is just about right. With the increase of yellow stripes I would also want to make the AFC logo a bit larger.

What did the original AFC jumper from the 1800's look like.

 

[matty p]

As I said in the other thread, why would we even contemplate going with a 'V' design when Port have already done that? We should go with a uniquely Crows design, eg. the Heritage AFC monogram.

We make our own history.
