What jumper for the Heritage Round?

[goswannie14]

What jumper design will the Swans wear for the Heritage Round this year? Given that we wore the white with red V because that was the last jumper we had won a premiership in before last year, what will we wear this year? Will it be the "opera house" everyday jumper bacause that is the last one we wore to win a Grand Final, or should we go back to some of the really old designs?

All of these designs can be found on the Swans homepage in the history pdf file. Page 13.

well o'keefe would look good in anything so it doesn't matter what jumper we wear

seriously though, I have always been a fan of the 'V' jumper but I think we should go something different this year, the SMFC one looks good except a bit too much red, I would vote for the 1907-1920 & 1922-1931 jumper with the red stash- it looks great

The hoops would make Baz look wider.

so true, so true. Maybe we should wear them then- might make the players look bigger and tougher!!

I would love to see White with a Red Sash (afterall we did win two Premierships wearing it), but the AFL has stated that they want this year's Hertiage Round to have an 1980's focus, which either leaves us with the normal Red V we wore from 1980-86 or the Current Opera House design with a White Back and thin Red stripe down the sides.

Didn't it also have a red panel across the shoulders on the back of the jumper? I know there were a few versions before they settled on the red back.

I vote the V.
peace man.

I'm sure ryan would want to wear the V as well.
2 birds with 1 stone.

Indeed it was/still is our most successfull jumper in terms of premierships won.

I'm a fan of Where's Wally? so I go for the hoops.

I voted for the red V because it was an '80's jumper.

There's another '80's jumper missing from the list - the first Opera House jumper with the white back and red sides as worn from the 1987 season. That was the jumper we were wearing when we had 3 games in a row of 30 goals or more, including when we pur?ed the Bombers by 27 goals.

anything but the same old one we have had every year so far. It is too white, i love to see it, but im hanging out to buy one i wont get so dirty!

Is there any support for a freo-style all white and red V away strip??

At the very least I'd like us to wear the heritage jumper for a game in Melbourne every year.

I've always been up for this idea hammo.
I really like the big red V, would make a nice away guernsey.

Sorry...I just went from the 6 in the club history, but there has been mention of that one in earlier posts.
