Must have one NOW!!

So you're the guy that wears the foam pear on his head to home games?

We will all be that guy soon....

That's a big silver chunk to give us a look at what a silver jumper could look like. Reckon it could work for a silver alt/preseason BiB strip finbarr ?

I would buy a silver version of BiB and have been banging on about it for years, don't see why we can't have 4 jumpers. Weve got the Black BiB, White BiB and teal BiB. Makes sense to make a silver one and if it looks like this colour it'd be sick!

 

[Smartys Power]

It's amazing how one little pear can make people want something so badly.

Gimme, gimme, gimme.

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

Kind of convinced me that a silver BIB would work. Woth black shorts it would look very sexy.

 

[El_Scorcho]

I'm not sure that you can use that as evidence for a silver BiB guernsey.

That's still dominated by black. A silver based BiB would have to stand up on it's own without very much black or white at all, and I think it might look a bit washed out.

That colour balance is absolutely magnificent though.

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

Thanks to Renault for ditching the yellow!

 

[PatientMental]

Isn't the only silver thing on our guernsey the fist? We're essentially Black, White and Teal exclusively now.

 

[TeeKray]

That is superb.

 

[nataliekate]

That is superb.

Agreed!

Time to sing never tear us apart 50 times as loud next year. campaigners

 

[Duck Farmer]

Tastefully understated, unlike my avatar.

 

[rogerjames]

Like but more black underneath the white stripe would look even better imo. Pear is good.

There is also a hawk hidden in the eucalyptus.

I can see the pear turning Green Bay Packer Cheesehead-esque in a few years time.

Please no. The Packer cheesehead was a great idea but anything similar will simply be seen as a 2nd-rate copy. We deride cows supporters when they try to copy us, don't give them any ammo.

What goes on in your mind to go:

"Pear" > "Cheeseheads" > "Greenbay" > "Port" > "Crows!"

Pls. if something eventuates, it will be organic and won't be started by the club (the pear on the run out is totally the players). It's impossible to even pinpoint where the Pear thing started. Could be players, could be supporters, could be both. It doesn't even matter. How it evolved from here is completely of its own volition - starting with that little pear on the run out top, which is great.

 

[El_Scorcho]

Has there been a case of a Crows supporter trying to argue that the pear movement is manufactured by the club like they did with NTUA?

If not it's really just a matter of time, right? Especially if we're using it on merch

Correction : In your mind, not mine.

I'm talking about some kind of overwhelming headgear that the Greenbay Packers have. I don't see where you think I'm actually comparing them, only the concept. You're right about not knowing where the Pear thing started though. When I first heard it in the dark days it was a deliberate mispronunciation of "Power", probably by Steven Rowe.

 

[StuMan]

I don't really care what Crows supporters think about anything.
Pear is great, NTUA is great.
If people want to run around with pearheads, I'm down with that too.

Who gives a flying fruchoc how it's seen?

If people wanna dress up at the footy more pear to them.
