Guernsey changes 2011

Featured Replies

Sounds shite, like what they do for world cups but over the coat of arms, around the neck sounds tacky.

Gee I hope it looks good cos this could be a hugely terrible decision.

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.!!!

OK - can you describe it a bit more?

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...

i like the collar look, adds a bit of the old school theme, just hope the colours come out well :)

dont like the melbourne emblem above hankook

it shouldve been below it like other clubs have.

But we're not other clubs. I like it above and reasonably small, as shown

This is the kids jumper, if you check out the 2010 kids jumper you'll find the dimensions are slightly different...i.e. AFL logo fell across, rather than inside, the v

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.

  • 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.
