GWS jumper, Grey is getting too close to Blue

IMV... the GWS jumpers have changed colour,  and their Grey appears almost Blue... in the AFLW game.

 

We have to protect our brand.

    And before you know it, they will be forcing us to wear some craappy white jumper because there is a clash with our blue jumper that we have worn all along.

    Why any team would want to change away from their original/traditional colours is beyond me. ... although having said that if my teams colours were black and white or poo brown and yellow, changing them to red and blue would actually seem entirely sensible.

    We had the greatest jumper and still should be wearing it - the royal blue and a crimson-red; only the brighter blood-red jumper was an acceptable alternative. Both were lively, smart, identifiable and distinct. It bred the killer instinct that we are fighting to regain.

    This is just like losing the sole-tenancy of the MCG as the home ground. We even went to a little white number (spew, spew) for the TV stations to differentiate with impostor 'blues' adopted by other clubs. We were therefore encouraged by the AFL to lose our identity - then tolerate a stolen element of our identity for the purposes of visual clarity. If ya canna see da footy, don't go ... listen to it on the radio....

    Is the ‘grey’ in GWS’ jumper too blue? - Thread needs a poll. 

    They're Grey, seems to have evolved into  'Blueish steel Grey'  tones.

     

    Can you put up a poll,  'ET'  ?

    The orange needs to be more distinctive. IMO it looks closer to Essendon than Melbourne.

    That is Essendrug's problem. Ha-ha.

    i don't see any clash problems with either the shade or quantity of their orange

    It seems good enough reason to disband the abominable faux franchise club.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
