In a word? Horrific.

It looks more like a training guernsey than a game day design.

[Robot Devil 1,895]

Trim the neck and shoulder area a bit and it could pass for an NBA singlet. 

[The Chazz 4,077]

I rarely comment on the look of our away strip, but this is bog ordinary.

That was my first thought. It's basically a plain white guernsey with a gigantic logo in the middle.

Just a mild over compensation for the fact that the emblem of the team we love has dropped off the home guernsey altogether.

[Guzzie 20]

Agree with the other comments. A shocker.

Oh God here we go again.

We have to have a basic white and this is ok at least it says MFC.

When the team wins 14 games in 2017 I won't care what they are wearing.

[The Chazz 4,077]

I actually think it would be better if the red trim was blue.  I know it'd basically make it a white and blue jumper but there would still be red in our logo.

As it is, with the red trim, it just looks awkward.

[Leoncelli_36 2,264]

it's nasty looking. As someone else said, looks like we spotted a fake jumper in Bali and copied it.

The last one wasn't my favourite, but it was better than this. 

[Bossdog 2,002]

I thought that this years one was pretty good........If we have to wear white, which all clubs have to, I would've stuck with this years.

 

[SaberFang 7,151]

Could they not have retained just the red elements of the logo (the MFC emblem and Melbourne text), added a dark blue outline, then ditched the rest of the logo proper? Something like this:

Would have looked infinitely classier and streamlined IMHO.

[Roger Mellie 4,103]

Yep, much prefer this year's.

It looks like a 5 minute job and while I get the branding intent here, perhaps they could've got in a professional.

Brilliant comparison, bloody accurate too.

i thought it was a nightshirt

[Leoncelli_36 2,264]

The one thing i will say in its favour is that at least there is more blue on the whitespace on the 2017 jumper. The monogram meant there was predominantly white. I hope we wear navy shorts or red and blue striped socks with this.

That really is cheap and very nasty

White. The shade of Surrender

We're talking about football, SWYL, not the Australian cricket team.

[sisso 2,580]

None of the white guernseys are much good - I don't think it's any worse than the last one 

[TeamPlayedFine39 8,510]

I love our new emblem however this jumper is an abomination.

Looks like a singlet you'd buy in Bali.

[DistrACTION Jackson 9,246]

Surely they are extracting urine?

That is hideous if that is what they went with. Not quite as bad as the Hawks Power Rangers top but not far off.

I agree with someone's comments earlier- the first thing I thought of was a cheap Bali knock off!

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Has there been confirmation from an official source, or has this been photoshopped by someone from Facebook?

Edit - missed the link in the OP.  I must be blind today.
