I thought all terms guernsey, jersey and jumper were all interchangable.

Or the alternative someone else suggested to me is that Guernsey is South Australian like reading the field positions from the Forward line down or the checkside punt.

Jersey is from NSW and Jumper is Victorian...

I had the pleasure of being coached by one of WAs favourite sons, Roy Arbon(father of former East Coast player Matt)and the amount of times i ws corrected by him and his wife was unfathomable, they even went as far as printing out the Dictionary meaning of both words in "the Bombers View" newsletter.Prob a WA thing i guess, but always different to RL and their sleeved variety.

Stieger mayber Im old school but we used to refer to our jumper as a guernsey when I was a kid living in Melbourne.

It was always your footy jumper in Perth - can't remember anyone but the commentators talking about "guernseys".

I always thought a guernsey didn't have sleeves but a jersey did. So when playing footy, one wore a guernsey.

Don't worry about what's happening out here Rooster, they will all be fit and firing come round 1.

Who do you support anyway and have you ever played the game?

No probs ... pleased to say that Matt is back bigger than ever. In enthusiasm and size. Body strength that is, not weight!

Maybe you should of spent a bit more time doing your english homework mate instead of kicking the football with the sheep out the back......at least that's what you probably told your mum you were doing.

all this talk of Matty Arbon will be expanding his head....oh wait......nevermind!!Got more head than he got body!!(To be honest, we both have the same size cranium-his fits more in, and has a Hansel-like style i could only dream of!!)too right tho Kanga, he's wasted on the boundary.I shouldnt've left my planned beer with him this late!!A question tho Kanga-and its half serious-do you, or are you blokes willing to supply those out of the area with Toll passes for M7??Just wondering if you do, with Greater Sydney pretty much accessible by toll roads,is it something you've thought of?any other club for that matter?

[Pekay]
