Based on heritage jumper:

Lose the Citroënesque chevrons and I don't mind it.

"Kernahan and Ratten hate it" referring to our clash jumper ...

then wtf are we wearing it for

SOSAV

nice - we should get a few designs and send em to CFC
do you like the plain white?

I don't really like the white because it's obviously completely neutral but its certainly better than baby blue which is appalling. Putting the faint text over the white is a reasonable solution because it isn't a new colour and stops it from being pure white... if that makes sense.

Interesting that Ratts/Sticks hate it too.

No fan of the baby blue, but if they're going to play lazy, dumb insipid football like they did against St Kilda, then I'm glad they're not doing it in the navy blue.

i really reckon you should send that pic to CFC of the clash you desgined

I did. The receptionist or whoever answers their emails said they liked it and forwarded to Swann and Marketing Manager.

Won't hold my breath on seeing it on the field but I think anyone with a view on the jumper should let the club know - positive or negative. If nobody tells them how much they dislike the pale blue they will probably just run with it again next year.

There was a poll on the other site which currently shows 72% aren't in favour of the pale blue.

Maybe the club could put forward several options and let members vote on their website?

Clash jumpers suck dogs balls generally. Glenelg have trialled one over here in the SANFL and it's abhorrent. We have a historical jumper that we can use so hopefully when a final decision is made they go for that.

Any chance of seeing an inverse of it? Might defeat the purpose with it being blue at the top, but I'd prefer to see a white monogram.

Greg swann with KB on Friday said that the new clash strip is in final stages. Just needs the requisite ticks from the AFL.

He didn't give anything away but recently someone mentioned Gibbs was sporting a gunmetal grey polo top.

Didn't Man U have something similar.?

Are we going to be wearing it this week against the Eagles?

We didnt in the final last year.

Just got told that the club will be dumping the Baby Blue for next season. Likely to revert to the reverse strip of Navy Monogram on a White background, but with more Navy featured. I wonder if this is similar to the one that Sosav posted in this thread a few weeks ago. More interesting times ahead. Go Blues!

Thank goodness for the removal of the baby blue!

I don't think it's as big an issue as others seem to think, but the inverted home strip (i.e. blue monogram on white background) just seems so obvious and natural and looks the best anyway. The baby blue doesn't really make much sense when our main strip is so easily invertible.
