Listed as a training top, but retails at $134.99, and we ended up wearing last years 'training guernsey' a bunch of times in games, including in a semi-final.




I'm more confident the above COULD get an on-field run over this though...

The text looks too high, especially on the one that Nash is wearing. Looks fine if you get it in a size that isn’t too tight.

Reminds me of those 3rd kits Puma made 4 years ago. Maybe a watermarked pattern could've been added to break the monotony

That subtle 90s logo text, though

Why am I the way that I am? Kinda dig the white as a clash..

sash looks straighter?

Straight sash came in last year when the club crossed to Puma. 2024 sash was real curvy.

Quite a team, the Tasmanian Hawks

Long-time reader, first-time poster.

I recall listening to a podcast/interview (I can't find it online) with Eddie Mcguire just after he left Collingwood and he mentioned they had signed a long-term 6-year deal with Nike. Meaning 2026 would be the final year of the initial contract. KFC deal also expired this season, but not sure if they will be renewing or whether KGM/AIA will replace them on the 2026 jumper.

KGM being on the front of away and back of home in black and white would be great

2026 polo still has KFC on it.

Does Collingwood get paid less for the top-back part of their KFC sponsorship than Hawthorn does? I know it's nitpicky, but the way ours looks genuinely deters me from purchasing merch.

Could that Collingwood logo be any smaller?

If we wore this anywhere other than at training it would be our worse offering as a playing strip since the blue brown gold diamond abomination.

Teams playing on Anzac Day you can assume might have an Anzac guernsey (not counting clubs that don’t play on that day who might):
Hawthorn
Gold Coast
Collingwood
Essendon
Port
Geelong
Freo
Carlton

Plus Richmond and Melbourne who will play Anzac eve

Doesn’t everyone make an ANZAC guernsey now? Just stick a poppy or the silhouette of a serviceman on the jumper and Bob’s your uncle!

As much as I feel like only the teams that play on ANZAC day should have a jumper (plus Richmond and Melbourne), as long as the proceeds go to the ANZAC Appeal, I’m ok with it. Clubs already rip us off enough.

Probably just the way the manufacturer makes the jumper. Maybe ISC/UA designate a larger space on their template than Nike do?

Anyone heard anything about Essendon’s second sponsor? I actually think the new Dutton One logo looks awful on the jumper. I get it’s their logo and understand why they didn’t want it to look like Peter Dutton sponsored the Essendon Football Club, but the white rectangle looks so bad on the front. If the other sponsor is ugly like how Amart Furniture was most of the time, I might cry.

Fujitsu really was a goat sponsor with how they integrated it from 2015 onwards (excluding when ISC put the big ugly black box around it for some reason when it was on the back of the jumper, so they could write ‘Air Conditioning’ underneath in tiny letters). Pretty much the only thing UA got right with Essendon was that they just put Fujitsu in their white font.

Carlton only added the ANZAC Appeal logo to their guernsey last year, that's it.

I think the Dutton one logo looks better than just the words Dutton. Looks more like a sleek professional corporate logo.

The worst logos we’ve had have been amart Furniture and true value solar both look and sound cheap and embarrassing also blue didn’t work on red and black & stood out like a broken thumb

Dont know about who, but I dont think we will find out until after the aflw deal with Fujitsu ends so they can announce both.

Hopefully the deal has been done and it's now just about timing of the announcement

Make sense. I thought Fujitsu were going to be sponsoring the AFLW only going forward, but if they’re leaving that too then I understand. Should be soon then.

The gold jersey is CLEAN

God I wish our away jersey was the white version but with ROOS or NORTH instead.

SMH.

Yeah that could be it., but the padding on Superhero's logo is more laterally refined this season, plus border radius as well - which has me thinking there's sponsor directive.

West Coast celebrating 40 years in 2026, reckon they’ll put out some sort of heritage guernsey, like they did for the 25 years in 2011, and the 30 years in 2016. I have little faith that they won’t butcher it

Based on the Lions fixture announcement insta, no immediate change to the Home kit with Youi's placement on back or front, Hyundai still above numbers

The AFL badge only says Premiers 2024. So that isn’t the 2026 kit. Could still change
