It's a great jumper, but I wish they made the orange outline a little more prominent.

Would take it from good to great IMO.

Can anyone pick who this sponsor is above the numbers?

Walker Fire Protection perhaps?

Was just going to suggest them.
They do have another sponsor who is in Fire Protection (https://specialisedfire.com.au/), but if Walker bought them, then maybe.

EDIT:
I would say Walker Fire Protection is what's written above the numbers.
They're a division of AG Coombs which is the below the numbers sponsor.

Looks like the North women's team are going to blue stripes on white with blue shorts like the men's

 

[Heardy_101]

Be interesting to see how the white shorts policy goes this year... One would hope that North have moved on from their hissy fit and accept the fact they're going to have to wear white shorts in most of their games.

The piping on the womens' shorts is elite

hissy fit?

there's no reason for it. you can pretty much count the number of teams blue shorts would cause a problem with on one hand. it's not like geelong where their navy shorts look similar to black, royal blue stands out and doesn't really cause a clash with any of the darker based teams.

 

[troybe]

I wish Geelong would mix it up a bit.

Maybe a Navy jumper with White Hoops, nah that’d be crazy

The Never Surrender will be back in 2022, and more specifically in round 1

Needs a little more Orange I think, it's a unique colour in the AFL (same with Purple for Freo and even Maroon for Brisbane) and they should at least make the outline of the G thicker. On another note, it's a safe bet that there will be no changes for the Swans next year looking at this image though I think the shorts look a bit different

I don't disagree, by the way. The sooner we stop using white shorts as a way of telling two teams apart the better.

But until we get to that point... Geelong and North in white shorts for the majority of their games is the best contrast.

in home games against the Bulldogs, West Coast and Collingwood, sure. are there any other clubs our home kit causes a problem with? I don't think there are. Every other club that wears a dark home kit can just wear it against ours (Adelaide, Brisbane at home, Carlton, Essendon, Freo, GWS (they can wear the never surrender if they want additional contrast), Melbourne, Port, Richmond, St. Kilda). Gold Coast and Sydney can just wear their home kits with red shorts (red doesn't look like royal blue). There isn't really a clash between Hawthorn and North's home kits, the pattern might be the same but the colours make them distinct. There's no real issue with Brisbane's Fitzroy kit, and since they always wear it with white shorts it makes sense to put North in blue for contrast.

With the 3 I mentioned earlier, I think every game between us and them should have the same kit matchup: North in white shorts vs. the opponent in full home. It's silly to make the bulldogs wear a white clash while we also wear a dark clash, better to just let them wear their traditional guernsey. With Collingwood, it just makes more sense for the team that wears the darkest colour to have the darkest overall kit. In the case of West Coast, They can wear the yellow or the blue with blue shorts and we wear our home with white shorts. It becomes mostly white vs. royal blue with yellow. As you can see here, there's no issue (west coast's indigenous kit has essentially the same colour balance as their home kit):


Do you still think there would be any problem with this? I don't think it makes sense to attempt to come up with universal rules for clubs to follow. A colour is not either dark or light, and you can't invent a blanket policy that applies to every single club. Better to do it on a case by case basis.

pretty sure the afl were trying to do the same eg same kit north in white shorts vs certain teams and that's the bit north kicked up about.. they wanted to wear blue shorts at home no matter who they were playing, this was confirmed on twitter by someone working for the club when they changed there jumper to mostly blue.

weird call to change you jumper on the back of what colour shorts you have to wear, north had the white jumper most there history

might sound weird but I reckon white shorts should be considered more often when seeing if a clash jumper is needed.. AFl only compares the 2 jumpers colours.. when one team is in white shorts find there's a fair contrast

I don't trust the AFL to apply common sense to this, and the club probably doesn't either. It's still just standard to put the away team in white shorts, even if white isn't one of that team's colours and white shorts don't do anything to improve the distinction between the two teams. For example, when we played Essendon (our home game) we wore the royal blue kit and they wore white shorts. What do white shorts do in that matchup other than make their colour balance more like ours? White isn't even one of their colours. Why don't they wear red or black shorts for such a game? We still frequently see moronic situations like games between Carlton and Collingwood where Carlton wear white shorts, which creates more of a clash than if both sides wore home shorts.

it was when the afl was trying for the one dark one light thing,(like your saying) and a lot of the time north got told to wear white shorts given there jumper was mainly white, eg I remember freo wearing home jumper and shorts (all purple)despite being away team and north all white at docklands-was one of the games north complained about. afl were trying to go away with the white away thing and make more based on light and dark but yeh look to have just gone back to white for away regardless of who it is..agree with Carlton and Coll etc, collignwood should be made to wear white jumper.. like they did pre 2001

they're right to complain about that, it's nonsense. blue shorts wouldn't make us clash with freo's home kit. they put us in blue shorts against freo in white as recently as 2011.


freo in white shorts here is overkill, if anything it's less of a clash if they'd worn their full home kit.

I feel ike the pepper money logo needs to be somehow even bigger
There we go! It's a new style of guernsey that prevents friction between advertisers and consumers.

 

[lionbear]

Well I dont think that would pass AFL Guidlines

Deliveroo obviously gone then. Will Dare upgrade their sponsorship or will a new sponsor come in?

Deliveroo was dropped on the media polo, but they're still featured up the top right of the Saints page as "proudly sponsored by" along with Pepper, so unsure at this point

I wonder if they will do that for the guernseys. Are they going for the biggest front sponsor in the AFL award?

It’s heat pressed over the deliveroo logo so I’m sure it will be minimised!
