we only have one posters "rumour" on the stars - I doubt it will happen - sounds daft

It is not a rumour. Sports retailers receive samples of changes for next season, and I've seen first hand a sample guernsey for next season.

The new 'home' jumper is white WYL. The stars will be red & blue depicting the premierships.

The 'away' jumper will be what we, in the past, would refer to as our traditional home jumper.

It seems to me that we wear the away/clash/sh!t jumper more & more so they club have made a good decision in reversing the strips in an effort to wear red & blue more often.

Quit it DH i am at work.!!!

And for what it's worth, I love the fact that the MFC will have a constant reminder of our success depicted on our strip. The stars are not obtrusive and all and actually look fantastic. New Balance have nailed it.

Compared to reeboks guernsey, the red seems more vibrant and the blue a tad darker. The sides of guernsey (rib area) incorporates meshy material allowing air to flow through it, whether this is advantageous at all I cannot say? As I mentioned to earlier, the major changes are the stars and the new logo on the chest. Supporters will love it.

How's the fit of the jumper? Loose and baggy like the old Reebok ones or well tailored?

Still can't picture the stars

How big are they?

What colour?

Do they go right around the neck?

5 pointed or 6 pointed? (just joking)

Sounds nice. As long as the core design is kept intact, I'm happy with anything that reminds us of history and success, as long as they're not overly intrusive. I liked having the Demon logo above the Primus logo in 2004, but I don't think the marketing team then, or now, liked that 90s Demon logo - it wasn't a very appealing logo and I can't imagine it being very appealing to prospective investors/advertisers. I'd much rather have the new logo anywhere on the jumper. Stars sound like a great idea. I'm sure some pro teams around the world do a similar thing. They also do it for the World Cup kits, and it blends in perfectly. I have a feeling that the core jumper, fused together with the new logo and stars will look great. I can picture it definitely.

This is from the Ticketmaster site where you can order youth jumpers for next year.

My only gripe is that the AFL logo crosses over the red yolk to the blue. One of the things I liked about this years jumper was that the AFL logo was within the yolk, it meant that the design of the jumper wasn't intruded upon as much.

True. However, the jumper doesn't really look as though it's drawn to scale. The AFL logo and Hankook logo's are almost touching! However, having said that, has anyone noticed how the AFL logo is almost on the SIDE of St Kilda's jumper???

Will wait and see...

Evidently the experience with the previous supplier was less than examplary. Worth noting, Port who also wore our previous suppliers gear, only got their 2010 stock in late AUGUST.

You can go in to the Demon Shop and see different shades of blue and red on ostensibly the same jumpers.

I think this is the consequence of making the yoke sharper. Compare the pre-90s jumpers to the bigger broader designs in the late 90s - '00s.

The jumper as it was described to me by the a person at the club, was that it looked more... galdiatorial. The shoulders look accentuated, the colours, deeper more traditional. We are one of New Balance's first clients when it comes footy jumpers, so it's a big trial for them.

Lets hope the New Balance can deliver the goods.

Is that red? Coz it looks Crimson to me. Monde, can u confirm if the final product has this grape juice colour to it? Or is it red. That ain't red people. Copy it to paint and then colour test it. See what you think.

These are pictures and the colors will be somewhat different when the jumper is in the hands. I think the red will be darker as will the blue, which I do like.

Love the emblem being there. Never mind moving it up or down, it would look better without the Hankook logo's but of course these have to be there.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
