Yeah but it's not different at all
 
Even though our sleeveless footy tops are just one of the things that make AFL unique, ive always wondered why AFL jumpers never evolved to a 'normal' type sleeve like rugby tops and such.
The hawks toyed with one for 5 minutes in 95 or 96 pre season i think. But cos of their poxy pee & poo colour combination it looked shizenhousen and was shelved.
It would be a bit of a break in tradition but i think merchandise wise it could grow into a monster.
Alot of people get to an age where they feel a bit funny wearing a sleeveless jumper to games, and most AFL long sleeve jumpers look pretty dam crappy. A top something like this ( but obviously with our normal stripes )

IMO would be worn by a wider age demographic to games and could be a big money spinner.
Would also cover up any shoulder strapping on players like Juddy's. ( although Dane Swan might not like covering up his crayolla arms).

I think they all look great, except for the grey on some of the polos.

They, like every Club, change things up each year to sell more & make more money. I have no issue with this.

At the end of the day though, I dont care whether its a white collar, black sleeve, something is smaller as long as its RW&B when we win the premiership!!!
