And imagine what the founders of the club would think, with us playing in that white thing...

white. The sign of surrender. As i said fo you 3 years ago there is more to the white clash jumpers than just a conflict of colour.

The AFL will always prefer a home team to win. It is far better economics and since the home ground advantage has been mostly curtailed then the white jumpers are the next best thing.

I have more of a problem with the umpires wearing coloured rubbish than any of the original jumpers.

The clash arguement is a beat up.

The wearing of our clash jumper against St. Kilda makes the contest more confusing.

"Oh it was an oversight.." Get real. It is a marketing ploy.

It's not a colour.

And it is the colour of the founding of this game and your club.


no need to - look them up on footyjumpers.com.au

LOL Internet searching you got to love it!

Yes i know white is not a colour. It is a shade.

Still the sign of surrender....

Yeah, white being "the sign of surrender" has worked out so poorly in Sydney in recent years...

OMG, Geelong has white on its jumper too!

And Collingwood! And North!

How have these teams done so well in the last 2 decades, against such a powerful force as having white on the jumper?!

Seriously WYL, how do you not see the idiocy of such statements..?

you like the white jumper. To me it is a diluted nothing. During the 70's i had trouble watching the royal blue concoction.

In 1987 the red and dark blue jumper returned.

I bought a membership before the round one game started.

Each to their own Machsy.

The shade of white is not part of a Demon Jumper in my house.

You live in a different place.


You live on a different plane...

To you?

Is there a law to say i must embrace the clash strips?

I don't like any of them. Cheapens the game in my eyes. How anyone cannot decipher each club jumper on an HD TV is beyond me.

i agree, except i wish channel 7 DID broadcast in HD! :ph34r:

Yes, well you can blame the 1.3Bill deal for that!

But even a modern SD picture is sharp enough.

Geelong had first dibs on red and blue though...

Should we really be wearing it?


It's about light and dark jumpers, that's the policy the AFL and all teams adhere to it (even Collingwood and Essendon).

Because we all watch the footy on black and white TVs. There was a Port Adelaide game (I think) last season where there was a real problem but otherwise this whole thing is ridiculous. Primary colours can be retained almost always. The white is insipid. I watched many Demons Fitzroy games live without any confusion. The EPL teams change their tops each year for marketing and therefore sales but there are genuine clashes. When I watch our team in the white top most often I cannot see why.

I like Port adelaides first three attempts - see no.3 - LOL

Port-Uniform-1870.gifPort-Uniform-1877.gifPort-Uniform-1883.gif

At first glance - lol.

At second glance - judos to 1870s Adelaidians (I don't know what they are called) for being so vivid and experimental.

Why don't we wear a pink away jumper next year and then when we come out still soft as butter under the sun we can blame it on that?


The Doggies have a red clash along with their white clash. Surely that has opened the door for a red clash strip for us? (Along with the white one)

yes. it's been suggested before that we could have 2 clash jumpers which would at least reduce the number of times we are forced to wear the yukky white

i think the club could consider this. the cost is negligible esp as they often wear one-off specials anyway.

it would also give them an extra merchandising option which i think would be attractive to many

 

Exactly. Have the white jumper as a decoy to please the AFL, then don't wear it. I think the Dogs only wore their white one once this year so it's not like there's a minimum of times you have to wear a jumper. Hawthorn wore there white one once too I think. The Dogs wore their red against the Eagles and I doubt the AFL complained of a dark on dark clash.

Home guernsey: 16 times (5 with away shorts V Hawthorn, Bulldogs, NM, Richmond, GWS)

Red guernsey: 6 times (V St.Kilda, Carlton, Adelaide, Essendon, Port Adelaide, West Coast)

White guernsey: Preseason guernsey, toilet paper, sanitary napkin, sun shield on a car, scrap material for arts and crafts, fuel for a campfire

Simple.

It's the 'red and the blue' - I don't like the all red thing we had a few years ago - it's not our jumper.

If it's all red, it may as well be white.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
