Reserves guernsey

[lunacy]

So our reserves team can't be called the 'Crows' and we can't wear our AFL guernsey in the SANFL. So I reckon we should get in touch with the club and recommend we use one of those amazing designs some of you guys on bigfooty designed.

Whoever that was can u post those designs again in this thread?

And then we need to convince the club to wear this strip. We'll probably be called the Ravens anyway which will work.

 

[spexau]

Do you think the SANFL would let the reserves team wear the same colours?

 

[Bacon8]

Before the Crows name/colours were chosen in 1990, the media were quite adamant that we'd be called the Sharks, and wear a green/blue/white strip (from memory).

Let's go with that. The media could be right 24 years too late.

My feeling was that since our logo looks nearly identical to the Baltimore Ravens and I believe Chapman has already been quoted as saying he liked the idea of the Adelaide Ravens as our reserve team, I though I'd pinch their colours as well.

But having read the proposal, this design may be too Crowsy.

We were also supposed to be the West Lakers.

I am sure we will go with a clash/away style modern jumper. With the hoops jumper being reserved for AFL team which I don't actually think is a bad thing, allows us to keep and build that tradition of earning and being presented the home guernsey as a player debuts.

Completely black guernsey, be called the Ravens.

 

[Hinkstuff]

Not allowed to have the Crows guernsey.

Being the away team every week you'll probably end up with a white jumper base. Blue, red and yellow are already taken in the league so white will be used to avoid clashes.

I can't see anything left field like orange or green being used.

What about the GWS colours?
Won't clash

Time to bust out the 2005 Heritage guernsey i reckon. No reference to Crows, nothing like our home jumper, get it done.

 

[rayven]

I would like to see some sort of recognition of the kaurna and permangk civilizations that controlled the Adelaide plains and Mount Lofty ranges prior to 1836.

Basically using the indigenous round Guernsey would be a start.

The crows have one policy when it comes to branding; MUST APPEAL TO KIDS.

Sigh.

 

[Lawrst]

This is a time to appeal to the traditional, they are the ones who will actually follow and possibly buy the gear.

 

[Crowked]

Surely no one would ever wear that purple and yellow thing. Its horrible.

Arent the Baltimore Ravens almost all black? That would be better, all black.

Lose the bird and that would be the best white clash jumper we ever had IMO.

 

[Geoffa32]

Plain white top, shorts and socks with the "AFC" insignia used on one of our heritage jumpers in the middle.


No mascot needed.

 

[FR0GGY]

Wtf can't we wear our normal gurnsey?

The SANFL clubs don't want the Crows to be embraced by kids/fans as their own SANFL side to support, so if they have a different name/jumper than that will be enough differentiation from the AFL side.

Purple is the home uniform, white for away.

That's what I said too.

 

[Hank93]

I'd buy the new jumper if it looks decent I'd think.

 

[rocket18]

Cant believe so many on here are so excepting of the SANFL terms, they are our reserves, they will wear our jumper and be called the Crows.

If the SANFL don't like it we will take our business elsewhere. FFS people grow some balls.

And why can we only have 1 old ex-crow playing, I would have thought it would be awesome if the recently retired players would play for another couple of years with the youngsters teaching/role model on game day.

I think that boat has already sailed, been to many Auskick clinics over the last few years, lots of crows, couple of power, smattering of other AFL clubs, have only seen 1 sanfl(central) jumper on.

Has anyone seen any sanfl jumpers at auskick?
