Sorry but it gives me flashbacks to the abomination that was our ‘welcome to colour television’ guernsey. Took us years to get rid of it. Give me that reversed, predominately red one any day

    It's great, it's a "throwback" jumper that we'll wear several times a year and if it comes down to it is far prefer to see us in this on GF day than any other clash jumper we've had over the years. 

    It's fantastic the club is listening to supporters, it shows they understand that these things are important, even if they may seem inconsequential

    Wear it in a classic win next year a la our win against WCE last year and history will start to be rewritten. 

    I mean, we've been wearing our traditional jumper for the last decade during probably the bleakest period in our clubs history. Doesn't mean I want to see us do away with our traditional strip.

    Love it.

    Nothing will be better than our home jumper, and I still prefer the red back but this is just so much better than any white one we have had. Particuly the bali knock off from last year which was horrendous.

    I do have a soft spot for our original red clash jumper but understand that it will not solve all the problems.

    Also would be a fan of an inverted home top with mainly red with a navy yoke. Even if the yolk was more of a traditional V. Much like the kangaroos new clash strip except red with a blue V.

    North fans got to vote on their clash and chose the below.

    It is so much better than the white jumper it's not even funny. Well it is now that it's gone.

    I'll always prefer the traditional colours, but if we must have alternatives this is great.

    Does anyone know if we will be having the Zurich logo blended into the jumper? Looks like sh*t with the blue square...

    I hope they can blend it better than the two versions I've seen that seem to be stuck on over the AHG logo.

    The logo appears to be heat patched on at this stage, presumably for the photoshoot but I’d suggest by the time the season starts NB will have it integrated into the jumper. Minor detail, love the jumper.

    If they play in a grand final, they can wear a hessian sack for all I care!

    Voted love it but more of a like it.

    Despite our poor years in the Royal Blue it was our jumper when I started following my beloved Dees way back.

    I've always maintained we must be red and blue.

    The dark blue with red back is great, a reverse of our traditional jumper would be fine along with the Royal Blue if we must wear one. Just not white

    Every time they replayed that Tommy Mac goal in the week following our win over West Coast, it gave me the irrits seeing that white jumper.  Was stoked for the win and what a great game Tommy, Viney and several others had played, but those white jumpers were just so in your face not MFC, that it really took some of the enjoyment out of it for me.

    The Roos just want it to look more like a MFC jumper - need to replace the white with red, sorry Norf, no dice.

    Poll should have option ' it's OK only because it's better than the white'

    I hope it clashes with Carlton in round 9 and the jumper ends up getting canned.

    As I mentioned in the other thread, our clash jumper should be essentially the red jumper we used from 2004-2007. 

    Just my 2 cents worth though. I'm glad the majority are happy.

    BBP, how could it clash with Carlton, we are in the white shorts?

    Could not give a rats clacker what we wear - 

    If we make a grand final and wear it would I buy one - Yes 100% I would

    If we make the finals and wear it would I buy one - Yes 100% I would

    Would I buy one irrespective of what happens in the season - 50/50 

    Go Dees

    Yes DD..we know you don't care. I have no doubt you'll post to this effect a 100 times more in any number of threads.

    Some however do. Those that undestand this appreciate the nuances. They'll appreciate we have always referenced the Red and Blue even should we have gowned up in prissy white or disco silver.

    I for one prefer even this rendition. It still screams MELBOURNE. I like that.

    Those that dont care,  id actually wonder what elements about anything are sacrosanct ? 

    Whilst it's about winning its about winning as MELBOURNE and recognisably so. Thats how a culture is built....not as non descripts.

    The poll should have an option. ' im ok with it , its better than none red and blue'

    Go Dees

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
