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.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
