News New Jumpers for 2017 - All changes in OP

[offtherails9]

I was just about to come in and post the Cats Cotton On thing too. I've been sitting on it for a few months now but didn't want to make a big deal out of it. Have cross confirmed with someone who was training in the VFL squad this year and heard the same thing. It makes sense, with Ford and Target leaving the area it's a good idea for a local, national company to align themselves with the local team. I wonder what logo they'll use under the neck.

That's funny, I heard about this a while ago (maybe even like April) but didn't want to post it in here in fear of being ridiculed for something that sounds so peculiar. I wasn't sure myself whether to believe it or not.

If you watch this video you can see that there is zero reason that red cannot be considered a "light" jumper colour.

I really hope that in 2017 we can get a red clash jumper back, preferably just an inverse of our home jumper.

View attachment 278366 I'd say this could pretty much confirm we are switching to BLK, this photo appeared on Facebook with the ISC logo on the Guernsey editited out, although they didn't do it for the shorts

I've seen that before, and its just that the guernsey folded up a bit.

Here's the direct link to AFLPhotos.com.au if you don't believe me: http://bit.ly/1Q0NZmP

Anyone else sitting on juicy gossip?

And this is from the website:

ISC logo notably missing.

Change for 2017?

My cats favourite scent is lavender, I often see him outside sitting next to it smelling it.

Not that it matters, but not much news at the moment.

You know, if there is no news then you don't actually have to post something.

Lets not let this descend into a random chat thread people. Keep it at least reasonably on topic please.

Good pick up - not only no ISC, but the first sugar daddy jumper of 2017!

Do you know who I am?

But seriously, no worries - my bad

I'm interested to see what BLK purple would look like.

Melbourne Storm (NRL) were on BLK for a few years

I believe BLK rugby jumpers use a different material that doesn't give a faded effect.

Look at the "beautiful" grey Richmond jumpers on show today, that's what you've signed us up for Finnis you ****ing muppet!

I put in roumers thread months ago bout cats and cotton on cats are partners for the cotton on foundation which is why they are going with them . Saints cats leave isc and ess and coll join

It could well be my TV, but the BLK black actually looks better than last year, BUT, still horribly unacceptable and still not actual black.

It was your TV still very very grey, St Kilda's Red looked darker.

I know it was still grey, but I'm saying it doesn't look as grey as last year.
They said they would fix it mid season and I think they only slightly improved it.

 

[Dylan8]

I think BLK has literally changed nothing for years

 

[TheLoungeLizard]

Might be in the shadows it looks better, or maybe I couldn't find any positive in our game I looked elsewhere.

Dylan8 they have changed, they have progressively gotten worse since the KooGa days.

You mean it looks darker when there's less light on it?
Maybe they should just run around with umbrella's.

Hopefully a new template means new fabrics that don't absorb light.

Or am I being too opimistic?

We might get closer to looking like a footy club than today!

Anyway, I wasn't saying the issue was fixed, it's still horrible and needs an overhaul I was just suggesting it could be better from last year as I recall last year looking a genuine grey at times.

Tone it down will you

Going into the science of colours here, but black absorbs light. That's why it's black. The problem is it reflects ligh, hence the faded colour.

I could see Adidas jumping on Freo seeing as they sponsor Fyfe.

I dream of them coming back with us...

They'd actually look excellent on you guys as the cut of the template wouldn't interfere with the design.

 

[TheLoungeLizard]

Just a thought with the new BLK collar, will the box always be the same colour as the collar?
If so, Adelaide will have a big yellow box on the front, reminiscent of the Adidas bib.

I'd like to see the collar yellow, with the box navy - I always think those look neat.
