I'm pretty indifferent on how the jumper looks really. They're basically always bland, plain and boring and I think that we just need to accept this. The past couple of clash jumpers we've had haven't been as horrendous as they could have been, and I'm thinking that next years will once again be an improvement. They fact that we're staying away from cartoon style graphics is all I care about really, as nothing looks worse.

As for who we should wear a clash jumper against, I think they're only a couple sides where it can be an advantage. The obvious sides are Carlton and Essendon. I don't see an issue with Brisbane and now that Fremantle have a predominantly white gurnsey I can't see the AFL saying that a clash occurs there. I'm thinking that we also in the past have worn a clash against WCE too, but I don't think that's really a necessity.

 

Anybody wanna have a go at what they think It will look like? White jumper, red or blue trimming with the MCC style MFC logo In the middle? I picturing Carltons white clash jumper with a MFC logo..

I imagine something like the jumper which was one of the poll options a couple of years ago on the Melbourne website. I can't find the jumper however that was used in the poll.

Navy shorts would be great.

Blue Shorts make a large difference, I am not impressed by it, but they do make a difference for the better. B)

It looks far less insipid with the blue shorts.

I'm not sure if this has been brought up earlier in this thread, but would we have to wear a clash jumper in finals and god forbid a Grand Final when we come up against certain opposition?

The Saints did this year
 

Something stinks about that, it really does.

Don't get me started!!!! B)

Yep

Just look at StK in last GF and replay

and there we go.....the wait is over?

the back looks ridiculously white. but that because there is no number 31 on the back!

other than that, looks like a solid attempt.

surely we could have squeezed on our heritage MFC / MCC looking logo.


Thought i would save people some time....post-4864-129124319306_thumb.jpgpost-4864-12912432465_thumb.jpg

That's the one.

Cheer, cheer the red & the white...

I would buy it.

P.S - Did anybody notice the stars on the back of both jumpers? Looks like it is happening

I reject most of that. I'm sorry.

The 'reverse uniform' is a bastardisation of our guernsey and it wouldn't alleviate all clashes and therefore we would need a second bastardisation - most likely white.

Let's get the one white guernsey, wear it fleetingly, and finish top so we don't have to wear it in finals.

Why would we need a second "barstardisation"?

Why would we need a second "barstardisation"?

Because if we went reverse, there would still be clashes with teams.

Adding more red would create a crash with Gold Coast, most likely Brisbane and most likely Sydney.

So another jumper would be needed for these teams.


They better let us wear the navy shorts. Least the flogs could do.

Love it! Really hoped for something classic and simple like that! Really, really like it! Hope we keep this setup for a lot of years! :)

I would have liked a fraction more blue but other than that. Go the Swans...woops, sorry, "Go Dees!"....lol

 

its in the right direction but I also would have prefered more blue. I hope the numbers will be blue and not red

Why would we need a second "barstardisation"?

A red jumper still clashes with some clubs, which requires us to have three jumpers. In 2009 year we wore our traditional jumper, a red jumper and a white jumper. In 2010, we had the traditional strip, and the white jumper.

Red is therefore not an option. As far as I’m concerned, a predominately red jumper is still not a Melbourne jumper.

That isn't rpfc talking either.

Although rpfc can be just as elegant and pithy.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
