Well unlike the Australian Cricket Team, players can be traded. So lets just say that i think there will be some blazers out there that wont necessarily be nurtured as much as the ones the cricketers get.

If it were to be worn all the time, then it would be "schoolboyish"., but as a special occasion garment that was only bought out out for premium occasions I think it is OK

 

i kinda like the idea. every kid growing up playing cricket wants to one day own a baggy green cap. it would be great if the tradition can grow some legs quickly and one day it would be evry kids dream playing auskick to be able to one day own a baggy blazer. this would be dependant on these kids seeing the boys up on stage one september with the premiership year embroidered on the pocket.

it makes me tingle with excitement.

Whether players are traded or moved on or move on they can still choose to remember their time at the MFC will fondness and pride..

This is all a part of the club building its brand and rediscovering its heritage as we go on to write new pages in its history.

I dont mind it as an idea, interesting to see how all others and players view it.


I don't mind it... could give the players more of a sense of "belonging" to a club and its traditions.

BB I find myself in the opposite camp to CS again.

I don't like his idea of "red" and I do not like this blazer idea.

Looks like something we found in a trunk at the back of the store room.

Should have left it there.

Portrays the MFC as something stuck in the past,

 

Not stuck in the past....rooted in the past. We are after al lthe inventors. I can see it will divide. ftr ..im not a fan of the crimson on the emblem either.. it could have been red :) lol

As another noted if as a keepsake and special occasionthen , yep.. if some sort of new uniform... id pass.


Great idea. I'm no fan of the tracksuit/polo top being worn at club functions or when representing the club in the media, but I suspect players will still be wearing the sponsored gear at most appearances.

I note players will get one blazer when they start. What happens if they grow out of it?

Afraid I agree with you old dee. Surely we have moved on from the 50's and are a more moden club this this???

we might have the mantra as the mt.bulla fans but better that then being seen as a collingwood centerlink bum. nothing wrong with a bit of class i love it.

It's not about moving on from the 50's its about players having a taste of our great history with the game and making there own.

agreed, the stigma is not going away anytime soon so lets embrace it.

I know sometimes i love when my colingwood mates say things like that because i say please stop dont call me rich and classy. much rather have no teeth and complain how long it take to line up in centerlink.

maybe a red and blue Lycra cycling uniform would be more in keeping with the times? :wacko:

First post after months of following a lot of the discussions as observer.

I am not rooted to the past but am old enough to have my memories which is what inspired me to be a demon supporter.

I am also progressive enough to hope that we can go on to even better success.

We may as well look as professional as we need to be and if the blazer "for special events" with personal highlights added displays a professional approach great. Asnoted above is part of branding of club and can forge greater engagement and hopefully attraction for next generations.

Any idea were I could get one DC?

My current cycling gear is getting a little worn.

With my luck the red would turn out pink or maroon

hard to get a good red these days, plenty of fucshia lycra out there

somehow it just doesn't fit my image of you

I'd like to see red and white striped 'pyjama' blazers with straw boaters

Love it, except for the bit where it looks like a school blazer.

A bit of redesigning, with a simple embroidered MFC intertwined logo, and a thinner contrast binding (Ralph Lauren style), and I'm buying one!

I reckon it's great. Far from being stuck in a bygone era the MFC is leading the way in re-branding and this initiative complements that direction. The MFC is steeped in tradition and recent decisions to embrace such a triumphant history only highlights the fact that our great story has been mothballed for far too long. There are always those that are critical of anything new, so unanimity on this issue is a pipe-dream, but in the main I think it will be well received.

Believe it or not DC before a recent knee injury I was doing about 60 - 70 km a week to try and stay healthy.

I do enjoy it.

Just back on the bike in the last two weeks, put on 4 kg over 3 months off the road.

I know you are baiting me re the boater so no further comment.

but i can't see you wearing lycra (at least in my mind)

clearer?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.
