Release Of All Indigenous Guernseys



Recommended Posts

Posted

On the AFL site they have released all indigenous Jumpers to see.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-05-27/indigenous-round-jumpers

The Demons guernsey really stands out and looks impressive and not overdone as most of us already probably know.

Some absolutely horrendous ones in there though...The GWS looks to have hired a child to do their art to add to the monstrosity of their already already discraceful jumper & GC is just terrible also..the Dogs & Hawks not far behind IMO...Carlton is just poor to say the least and could have done something more inspiring I think.

Crows/Lions look very good and Saints not too bad either along with the Tigers Turtle under sash look.

Well done MFC anyhow.

Noticed a substantial improvement in EVERY area of our club under PJ. Apparel, social media, design, all have improved as much as the football itself.

Crows, Kangas, Swans, Freos and ours I like... the award for the worst has to go to the Cats... why couldn't they have done something similar to the Kangas to take the stripes out of the foreground (really really poor effort).

I also like the fact that the Swans design was done by Goodes' mother; makes it a little more "special" (to paraphrase Bruce McAvaney) I suppose.

Good god what a dogs breakfast Whorethorn are wearing!!

I commend them on their consistency!

My somewhat cynical and and biased thoughts:

Adelaide: Congratulations your child is ready to graduate from finger painting

Carlton: token league imposed marketing effort

Collingwood:as above

Geelong: a high school kid is bored in class and scribbling over his text book, must of edited out the dicks

Gold Coast: yes you had a child and subscribed to the gimmick of getting a hand print

GWS: A worm crawled out of your Apple?

Hawthorn: On a budget and sewed together previous examples

North Melbourne: Got a deal on fabric from spotlight and slapped a logo on front

St Kilda: latest effort from Piping hot, most 10 year olds will be attracted to this

Port: Inoffensive basketball singlet for away games

Swans: Tribute to Pacman?

Eagles: Throwing a net over a fat poorly drawn bird?

Bulldogs:When every child is given a crayon to contribute to the class poster

Fremantle, bargain bin at the caravan park kiosk, marketed for Scandanavian backpackers on a budget

Lions: ruined it with a lion, seriously just ditch the lion for a round. A bit like a bikini model with a full back tattoo, may appeal to a niche, but not necessary

Richmond, Essendon, Melbourne, like the understated appeal to them, with a nod to some previous efforts by the NZ warriors heritage round styling

I really like West Coast's!

Too many have ditched their actual jumper to just chuck on some aboriginal drawings.

Eagles have kept the Eagle and incorporated the aboriginal side to it. That wins for me.

Ours is certainly top 3 though. Alot of rubbish in there.

Not keen on the Eagles' effort... has me wondering if they will be entering the field of play decked out in turquoise jewellery and running through a giant dream catcher.

Like the Brisbane and Freo jumpers. GC and GWS are terrible. Ours is more subtle, not badly over the top or cheap looking.

The MFC has always had pretty tasteful "special occasion" jumpers... the St Pat's Day green (I bought Jurrah's at auction), the Field of Women with the pink V and lady print, the Shanghai Showdown with the dragon on the side and players name in Chinese characters (bought Warnock's at auction - see a theme happening here? I better not buy anymore) and now this Indigenous Round jumper. Kudos to our designers.

Adelaides, brisbanes, essendon, freo, melbournes, ports and richmonds are all pretty good looking jumpers. Carltons and collingwoods are ordinary, and geelongs, gc and GWS are easily the worst in there. The rest don't really stand out or look bad imo

Posted

In no particular order, my favs are Adelaide, Brisbane, Hawthorn, and us.

One observation is that Hawthorn's is a hell of a lot better than their "traditional" one (not a difficult feat, mind you).


Posted

Brisbane's is my favourite.

I think Brisbanes is pretty classy & the Crows has a colorful zest to it. We would be top 3 for design without being biased.

Nth have gone completely overboard inturn making their guernsey look like a curtain from 1971. Errgh..First it was Argentina...now the Curtain..Good one Norf.

West Coke I'm not sure on...at first I like.... but now I look again & well I dunno...but its better than GWS....looks like a couple of ringworms really..Which will suit Scully nicely.

Maybe they couldnt afford a better design because of his current pay packet at GWS.

The dogs is just rubbish seriously..OMG.

No disrespect to the indigenous here is meant..but some clubs simply have done a half a$$ job to showcase great looking Guernseys & highlight the indigenous round of our game.

Next we need to get rid of the BS White Jumper if we can IMO. White is not a color of the Demons.. bar the numbers on the back.

Anyhow it is a great idea to have done this Indigenous round for all clubs & the fans & the people involved.

I'm looking forward to challenging Port with hopefully JKH on show!

They look fantastic for the most part and the artists involved should feel very proud. Well done to all the clubs on this one.

Having just watched the Cats on telly, i wholeheartedly agree with your assessment.

Can we use this thread to vent out frustrations about the Indigenous Round?

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
