Hi JT

This may surprise you or perhaps not but the shade of blue does not worry me

Navy Blue, Blue black, royal blue I can live with them all.

It is the red that gets up my nose

we had a number of bright red colours that I was happy with.

it was when we seemed to be only able to produced reds that looked pink at night and on TV that got up me going.

Then we jumped to Maroon.

All I want is a bold bright red and darkish blue.

Fairly simple but we seem to make very hard work of it.

IMO this the one area where CS has been a total failure.

I have no idea what he has been trying to achieve.

I know its the red, and agree its not red, more maroon i just find a bit of a joke in it that every year its one of the first questions you ask about members packs ect

:is the red red or is the red maroon"

justified, doesnt bother me as much though

Goodness me, I thought this had been done to death? The red the club has sought for the jumpers is a deep blood red, similar to that observed on the jumpers from our most successful era. It's not a bright red, it's much closer to burgundy or maroon.

I'm not sure where confusion comes from. Execution of the red colour wasnt great in 2011, but was better

Jt this club has been a failure for the major part of the last 48 years, the constant jumper changes are a symbol of that.

The majority of clubs seem to have settled colours, when was the last time you saw Sydney or Essendon change their red?

I too find it a joke that the MFC cannot get the red in the jumper correct ( whatever that is these days )

Why do we have a different shade every year? and this year I am told the blue has changed why?

If the target is the colours of the 50's and 60's successful period then send the manufacturer an old jumper and say match this.

What is hard about that?

I prefer to wear red and blue

It is fairly simple I want it red not pink or Maroon

I agree OD it may seem stupid or trivial but the stupid thing is how difficult it seems to be to get something like this right.

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
