And the jumper manufacturers would be annoyed by. Still, it's something the club has enough contacts for, and it allows for a sample sponsorship for companies who are interested.

Can be sold to all parties easily enough, except for the those pushing out the jumpers. I don't think they'd appreciate running out 5 or 6 times the usual number of jumpers for charity.

That's the reason we wore an alternate strip, but not this light blue one.

Until each team plays each other the same number of times, the AFL, as a fair dinkum competition, cannot be taken seriously.

He (Mr Swann) said the honour and pride associated with the club's traditional navy blue jumper was priceless.

I've been too lazy to read this entire thread, but anyway..

my preference is silver - we're the classiest team in the comp. Why not a colour that reflects it?
second is yellow - I believe there was a Carlton strip VERY early on with yellow shoulders
Third- something to do with an integrated marketing plan. If we do not start creating an identity beyond just being Carlton there is a limit to what we can achieve. Hawthorn has the Tassie thing, GWS is actively pursuing western NSW as well as west Sydney, even North is trying to foster a relationship with immigrant communities. What are we going to do to grow and develop our club identity?(By the way, How is it that the inbreds at Collingwood are sponsored by Lexus and we get Hyundai. My thanks to Hyundai, but the concept of integrated marketing requires you to give consistent messages - we're elite, hyundai isn't)

No there wasn't......it was white chamois which turned yellow thru washing.

Definitely worth looking into.

jimmae might be right about manufacturing issues/costs etc, but I still reckon it'd be worth pursuing.

Strategically handing a bunch out would be pretty good PR for Nike, costs can be offset against goodwill.

I thought it was 4 out of 4? St Kilda, Melbourne, Port and Freo.

They showed highlights last week of the first Melbourne game and after watching yesterday....I dont like the light blues. Not because Im against clash jumpers, the white ones I didn't mind, there's just nothing to identify with light blue.

This colour for a cause idea is great!

dane's trolling again

It's an official 3rd colour, which goes against our 100+ year history of navy blue & white and is just wrong.

It's a shameful sellout to Nike and the board needs to correct this and create a suitable alternate guernsey using navy blue & white.

Except a 100% win record. Take that any day.

I don't know if it holds any water, but the guy next to me (Freo supporter, but a nice bloke) believed that the Freo players had trouble seeing it against the background and light green of the grass.

I'will say that the number of interceptions we had, it did look like sometimes we came out of nowhere.

I know, sounds like tosh, but it is a fact some colour are more easily identifiable than others.

Other than that, I HATE IT!
