Originally posted by swantastic Well how about they wear the old SMFC jumper all the time so we can say "hey @@@@ em up in sydney"
Now you're just trying to provoke an argument
I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
I'm in favour of the all-white / red v clash jumper - I think it looks great (as does Freo's away jumper) and would favour it being worn in 75% of our Melbourne games.
I can't believe the marketing department hasn't been onto this earlier with the extra revenue it will generate (so maybe the club doesn't need to keep raising membership and ticket prices).
I am also surprised that some Melbourne clubs are so against the idea given English football clubs usually have 3 shirts that they wear throughout a season. If tradition is so important to clubs like Collingwood and Essendon then they should remove their sponsors' logos from the front and backs of their jumpers.

Good points hammo,the pies and bombers taking the sponsors of there jumpers that will be the day ,those two clubs have to much influence over the AFL.The AFL should say tow the line or out.
Now this is a thread that i would expect on the ego -centric, wank session that is redandwhiteonline.com...
Green background with purple paisley, with chartreuse numbers (even numbered players) or vermilion number (odd numbered players), mauve V, turquoise hoops and carnation cuffs and trim.

Originally posted by reigning premier Collingwood fans have such a passion for their jumper so they shouldn't have to change their strip either home or away...
It reminds them of their teeth. Alternate black and white vertical stripes....
It will go either the old SM jumper or the old earlier sydney version, all white with the V replaced by yoke with opera house design, i can see the day coming where we have three jumpers home, away, clash and it wouldnt surprise me if we see the two blues design, im not advocating it, but it could happen.
It must be nearly footy season, the threads are turning to Collingwood. I wonder, if the day ever comes when we have more flags than them, if our fixation will cease, and our own JF will grow into a fully fledged JofFa?
