Here is one to start off.

1: Freo designs club colours /jumper very similar to

ours (MFC)

2: GC also has red & blue in their club colours

I havent seen West Sydney yet, but IF they have red & blue somewhere in there I am going to Screeeeam!

I didnt think I;d say this but the pies stood firm

on alternative jumpers. Good for them.

Cant tell me there's no designer that cant come up with

a nice looking jumper without using red & blue in there.

I'm not a big fan on our 'white' alternative strip either. We are 'red & blue' SO all those 'johnny-come-latelys... get your OWN colours.

Thats my winge!

Any more takers?

    Maybe its because "Red & Blue" are the best colours and imitation is the best form of flattery.

    On the dockers, its a mess of a jumper, designed by a committee where they couldn't agree one a single concept.

    Haven't seen the gold coast so no comment.

    Lastly the clash concept should give priority to the oldest clubs with newer clubs having to wear a class jumper with their older brothers if their is one.

    Thought it is a money spiner!!

    I'm more confused by how similar the GC17 colours are to those of the Brisbane Lions.

    They are also exactly the same as Fitzroy's were, not to mention the Adelaide Crows.

    Surely the AFL should have ensure they chose a drastically different colour scheme to any others already in existence..?

    Not sure what your gripe about Freo is. Their mess of a jumper looks nothing like ours.

    I agree on our white strip-Looks bloody Terrible, and certainly nothing like the Melbourne Football club.

    Clash strips are my biggest Gripe within the game-dilute the Tribal feel of the Team

    At a glance standing on a Freo players left have a split second to shoot out the ball, It can be mistaken for our

    player,made worse on wet muddy days. From behind a Freo player,the red on their shoulders and also be mistaken.

    Looking front on not a problem.

    Collingwood / North - Carlton / Fitzroy were probably the

    worst to pick on wet days.

    Surely GC17's colours should be Red & Yellow?(or pink & yellow) :)

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
