I reckon they all look like training jumpers.

Personally, the white shorts with the red jumper looks awful, I don't mind the white idea. Has historical relevance on its side aswell.

I liked this. Not close enough to avoiding a clash is it?

whats wrong with using the old jumper i often see barras in, where the red yolk is actually just a little peak on the front and most of the back is red?

Not really a Clash jumper..more a stylised version of what we have. Id be ok with that in NAB games...just not 'real' ones ;)

Just thought Id have a look at what this looks like with blue side panels etc..in the vogue of the designs sent to us.

Yesterday I also sent an email to [email protected] to argue the merits of red&blue clash jumper, and advised we are polling on Demonland.

Got a reply indicating my email had benn forward to the marketing dept.

By the way, Bub, the blue sides look ok, but I prefer the all-red as a clash jumper. You'd have to see the real thing really...

What do people think of this new skin-tight number for Essendon?

Like them. I think it's a matter of time before all clubs implement jumper like that

Queen..thats the obligatory $64 isnt it !! myabe they ar taking some ( if only a little ) notice as Ive had more responses back from the club in last week than for many a year !! I take THAT as a plus !!

If I was cynical ( god forbid ) I might think its because any time I respond it might be with money !! lol

I think the club may enjoy that we ( as a group ) are passionate enough to worry or concern oursleves with how the club looks on game day !! The pajamas are Soooooo very wrong.. some other ideas..rather dated..possibly even the ones I like.. The point is.. there is interest.

What needs to happen is the CLUB need to OWN the away jumper, not be told what to wear. we need as a club to decide whether we are simply participating in the competition..or cmpeting in it !!

Im not sure what teh clubwould garner from a decent away jumper..but if they could sell 5000 of them and make 40 on each thats 200,000. But at end of te day ...Id be happy with a jumper I didnt cringe at. If youre paid to play you wear whats given you.. but as a supporter we pay to wear..I dont want crap! ..so far..Ive seen crap!!

The other aspect is if the community at large see we are 'real'..not a pasing fancy..then we may garner a littel more respect..and a few more might feel inclined to join because we are a real club with real identity. Im sure many may think this is ridiculous, but who wants to be associated with night-wear. Collingwood ( bless their littel cruddy hearts ) are given begrudging respect because they stand for something, even if its collective ire.. but what are we ? Maybe some heritage..some thign sound might carry weight. So much is ...visual.

received from the club this morning...

Hello ........(Me),

Thanks for your email. After the vote on our website was split exactly 50-50, we are now working with the AFL to determine a clash jumper design that is unanimously supported by our members, and a predominantly red design will be discussed.

Excellent news Bub! Well done mate!!!

Wouldnt surprise me though if they try do that predominantly red jersey with a demon logo on it which i wouldnt mind at all.

Posted

Well..we can only try !! :)

I think the club might be genuinely heartened that we ( supporters) have so much interest in it.

Im probably biased on my preferences..but am glad we are getting a hearing.

Should be interesting to see what comes out of it all :)

Looks awesome. Blue panels makes it a little more modern.

Avoids a clash (especiall with white shorts).

Belzebub, blue or white numbers?

Yeah..I thought the blue panels sort of gave it more form and a bit of a lift. Looks quite dynamic. Im only a lay person though..lol

Previous red clash strips have had white numbers which i prefer. But considering one of the teams we 'clash' with is essendon who has white numbers on red (sort of) the blue numbers may make our case for a red strip stronger.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
