I'm with the Brisbane supporters on this one. They took a classy and meaningful jumper and changed it into a cluttered cartoon mess.

The difference between this and having a white jumper is the club changed it off their own bat, not because of AFL imposed colour restrictions.

Yeah, I agree.

The home jumper is sacrosanct and not to be tinkered with, especially with the way they made it.

Being inventive with your away strip is completely different than abandoning your home strip that the past identify with (FFC supporters) and the present are very proud of (Lions fans who saw 01, 02, and 03).

 

The Brisbane supporters voted to ditch the "paddle pop lion" tonight.

From the www.afl.com.au article:

Another example of a supporter base from a poorly performing club that just doesn't get it.

This guy sounds like WYL.

Does anyone think Hawthorn supporters really cared when their players were running out in various horrendous strips in recent times?

The white jumper? The horrible camouflage jumper?

No one cares because they have been winning.

At the end of the day, it's just another thing for malcontent supporters to whinge about because things aren't going right.

Glad the Lions supporters have voted down the Paddle Pop jumper.

If you miss it i am sure we can find one on ebay for you.

They will be cheap.

And lost on others.

boom...tish !!!

Very, very different situations.

With the Fitzroy-Brisbane merge, and the heritage that was lost, there was extreme significance in the design of the lion, which was lost when the board made that change.

It seems like that heritage all they have and they are desperately clinging onto it in the absence of being competitive.

It really was a small change to update the Lion's face and make it more engaging.

Perhaps it could have been done better than the cartoon effort they created.

I really think people need to consider that while they are stuck in the past and it suits them, it's not necessarily better for the club in their efforts to attract new members who have no existing strong relationship with aspects of the past.

I'm sure if they were still kicking, there'd be some who would be lamenting our red & blue home strip, having abondoned our heritage as the invincible whites.

you do realise that was briefly in the 1860s?

shortly after australia was new holland and tasmania was van diemans land

bringing up such ancient history is not too relevant to modern times

I think the original tinkering of their jumper is the 'fiddling while Rome burns,' not this rejection by the members.

The jumper looks terrible and why you would change the strip so soon after The Threepeat I will never know.

History is not black and white and it can serve many different arguments. Our link to the red and the blue is long and profound, but it doesn't mean white means nothing to us, our club was 70 years old before we were called The Demons but it something that is a vital appendage of the club.

The Lions club admin screwed up the jumper, the members have rejected it and have demanded a return to the old one - and that's the end of it.

Now they can get back to figuring out why their young players are now in the four corners of the country and not in Brisbane.

I do know all of that.

But it's picking and choosing in my opinion.


If we win a flag I would be more than happy to put the stars back.

the Paddle Pop lion was more than a small change.

It was the deleting of anything Fitzroy that was left.

But keep digging...

You're right about it not being a small change but let's not overstate the 'deleting of anything Fitzroy had left' - they were the Fitzroy Lions after all...

the Paddle Pop logo had nothing to do with the Fitzroy Lions.

The 3peat Lion pays respect at least.


WYL, you could trademark taking a discussion and turning it into an absolute farce with your illogical and ignorant claims.

It's embarrassing to be involved in any discussion with you, so I'm going to stop right... here.

Bump

Can we please just have this?

Tell the afl to go and get stuffed.

This would fix almost all of our clashes.

Next years jumpers.

  • 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.

    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.
