I have no skills in making these jumpers...

But what about our original jumper with the rules of the game in white being written around the entire jumper for our clash? Similar to the new emblem?

Since the rules of the game change so often, we'd have to change our jumper every time we wear it! :rolleyes:

I'm not a big fan of the predominantly white guernsey but I like the one worn at the weekend by the Sydney Roosters which I think would maintain our traditions. It's white with a red V and a blue V in the style of Port Adelaide's new jumper.

Appreciate it if someone technically minded could reproduce it here and perhaps it could be sent to the club.

Here you go. My efforts to create a Roosters style jumper/clash strip. I like it. I reckon it is the look we should go for.

I think you'll find that the AFL (unfortunately) mandates white shorts for away teams.

Just another overkill

I was researching NRL away strips over the weekend via google and found a few things

a. They don't insist on so much white on the jumper as the AFL do

b. No rule on white away shorts. Most clubs seem to use their predominant home colour (eg storm purple)

This makes a HUGE difference to the overall look without detracting on clash issue (IMHO)

c. Many NRL fans are upset over clash strips - many forums discussions

As a first step, I wonder if the AFL might bend a little over white shorts??? (dreaming??)

I'm surprised this hasn't been put up:

No offence mate, but that is YUCK!

Any jumper that is just all white with a fat logo in the middle is a no no for mine. Look at Hawthorn/Crows designs. Puke!

Sorry. That one is a no from me

Yehhhh we won't lower ourselves to the Essendon and Richmond levels. They are doing just wonderful WONDERFUL things for their sash-riddled jumpers.

We need to keep to the 'V' design... :)

With the Suns on the scene all earlier designs put up on this post that are predominently red will have to be scratched.

Also, I reckon designs that have a red/blue V on a white background are too similar to the Bulldogs away strip.

We could do worse than stick with the current design IMO.

Well the Bulldogs won't be wearing their clash strip at the same time we are wearing our clash strip. So nothing to worry about there. The current one looks more like a Doggies jumpers than the any one featutring the "V" posted so far. Not sure what you are seeing there!

As much as I dislike the predominantly white jumper, if we have to go that way then this is the best and fits in the most with our tradition.

Here is an alternate to the jumper I have already posted WJ. It includes a little more blue.

This is a jumper I would pay good money for, a slight merge of a number of concepts. It keeps the traditional elements of the melbourne jumper but adds some white, not sure about the socks, happy for them to remain plain red but for me this says Melbourne Football Club.

I approve!! Simple yet as effective as can be having predominant white.

:)

Note: Hate how it has to look like Bulldogs colours as another poster had mentioned earlier on...

I am not a fan of this topic at all, but something quite distressing has emerged today that I had long held to not be the case and had considerably eased my concerns regarding the clash jumper furore.

St Kilda is being forced to wear their all white clash guernsey in the Grand Final. The reason given is that Collingwood finished higher on the ladder and earns the 'home game' rights, but obviously if the opposite were true we know Collingwood has no real clash guernsey so St Kilda would've been bullied into it anyway.

The 'compromise' is that if St Kilda wins they will all be able to change into their traditional guernsey for the post match celebrations and presentations.

This is not good. As much as I can put up with the Dees playing in a clash guernsey in a H&A clash, I would be furious having to watch them in one on GF Day.

This is exactly why we supporters have to fight this one ID. This will happen to the MFC one day if we supporters of all clubs do not fight.

Thereis no clash between Collingwood & St.kilda. B)

Generally it's Paint, but I did a school project designing a GWS jumper in Adobe Illustrator. There's templates on Bigfooty or you can just download an image off here

It's very interesting the way clubs have changed their approach to away or clash strips, in St.Kilda's only 90's grand final they wore their red away strip by choice. Collingwood were one of the first to adopt a pre-season and away strip. The first was horrible and the second had uneven stipes, a magpie on the front and a black back. Now Collingwood wear their "traditional" strip but if we look back to '66 St.Kilda's jumper was black on the back and Collingwoods was mainly white. It's all alot of garbage if you ask me, Collingwood modernised their jumper in the late 90's and now St.Kilda need to wear a meaningless jumper. I would hate to see Melbourne have to wear a clash strip against a side where there is no real clash, Brisbane, St.Kilda, Dogs etc. Regarless of that people need to acknowledge the money that rotating these clash strips every couple of years brings to merchandising and the additional appeal these jumpers have to the younger up and coming supporters.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
