The Jumper Thread

[Rowan18]

Look how much better it looks just by simply darkening and contrasting the colours…
The navy blue and gold looks WAY better than the blue and electric yellow..

True - but we're playing Carlton, so it can't be navy.

Just turn the lights out at Adelaide Oval, you'll get the same effect for cheap!

Also not sure why they put the current logo on the jacket. Should have put the retro logo

What a F****** dogs breakfast.

So this is what they spend my thousand bucks a year membership fees on .

Whoever it was that said a few posts back, that it looks like something that Best & Less would sell ...... is being kind.

Looks like something that you might stumble upon in the bowels of some South East Asia market, where the young girl in the stall, gives you a big smile and then tells you - "same, same but different" and try to get you to bye the cheap imitation.

Saw it up close at the team store and looks even more like a training guernsey irl.

Considering how boring our training jumpers have been lately, this would be a huge improvement.

 

[KBLT]

I just don't understand the shoulders

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Agreed the shoulder yellow bar unnecessary makes it look training jumper.

Thanks, I hate it.
I dispise how the AFL force these jumpers on every club.
As they do, last year's was perfect. A single poppy. Discrete and respectful. All that is needed

Wow the back is somehow worse..
Tirepower!
MY PLACE!!
Less we forget

I thought so too. Didn’t we cop some backlash for not having a special jumper last year?

Agreed. Anzac jumpers don’t sit well with me if they are retailing.

An iron on patch is all that’s needed similar to the GF

 

[Boohemian]

Yuck. Hate the crass commercialism of it.

My son saw it and thought it was for Lord of the Rings

I thought we copped some applause for keeping it simple.

 

[Cuzz09]

6 guys standing around... like our midfield

*Just joking before people lose their minds over disrespect

 

[Lia]

That looks absolutely horrendous if true.

Would buy if someone replaced the soldiers with silhouettes of the Fellowship

ANZAC jumpers are nearly all shocking. This is a forgettable addition to the league-wide pile.

Just ditch the concept entirely.

 

[Matele]

I held it as a sense of pride that our club hadn’t been sucked into ‘the homer’ style Anzac jumpers. Oh well.

 

[Keys]

ANZAC jumpers are nearly all shocking. This is a forgettable addition to the league-wide pile.

Just ditch the concept entirely.

Each club should have 3 jumper designs -
1) A home, predominantly dark, jumper
2) An away, predominantly light, jumper
3) A singular indigenous round jumper which should be either light or dark, depending on whether they’re playing at home or away that round

Anzac round, gather round and any other whatever jumpers should be put in the bin

Maybe a heritage round jumper except we don’t actually have a heritage round as such

 

[larrikin]

I don't hate it as much as most, but agree that he whole concept of ANZAC jumpers should be ditched. Happy for them to pop a poppy on the AFL logo league wide or something similar if they feel they need to do something.

 

[Ochre]

I wouldn't be against Anzac jumpers if instead of a "portion" of proceeds going to the Anzac appeal, 100% did. Same with the indigenous kits, but I'm not holding my breath on either of them
