Bring back the old guernsey - full stop.

The old one we had with the big bold monogram,

the one that big nick wore,
the one that harmesy wore,
the one that johnston, doull, sergio etc wore.

big - bold monogram - stop fiddling around with all these arty ones.

look at the new york yankees logo - the letters are all joined together.

NYC not N Y C with arty gaps... bring back the CFC.


Absolutely the team played with pride with that,the new one they play like they have handbags

Non Carlton, non AFL supporters who I ask this question prefer the nothches more (everytime).

My wife is a creative director of the #1 women's magazine, you know, one of those types. The crew she's with are into heavy scrutiny of any advertising, and they love the notches, they say it looks traditional and in a funny way 'retro'.

The notches has a broader appeal from my experience....and the bigger the better. Much more appealing, although I have to say they all look @#$%&! fantastic.

I also want an image of Richard Pratt on the back; he represents the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and is still here in the naughties, in fact he rescued us, and will still be there for us in the naughty 10's...in our renaissance (and rise from the dead).

He's been half of a footy club's VFL, AFL history and that is half of its 100 year history....many many premierships; in fact, half of them (16).

No need for notches.

The guernsey logo we had from 1933-1997 had no notches.

We only had notches on the jumper for 7 years.

As far as the logo is concerned the notchless logo is far far superior to the laurel wreath logo.

Give me notches without the wreath as a logo maybe, but all the paraphenalia makes us look like a pre WWII team, which was when the laurel wreath logo was created.

Get with the times you old farts!

I don't know too much of the detail in the history of the jumper, ie 7 years of this one and 5 years of that one.

Hey, I wouldn't call them old farts, in fact I'd put them in the groovy set...and my wife is 15 years younger than me...and they are in touch with generation X and Y as well as the baby boomers and all age groups in terms of what makes them tick, catch their eye and their preferences...they're in the game of attracting an audience not the other way around.

Just give me CFC monogram and I'm happy...just as long as it isn't a small one.

Totally agree.The post 97 jumper will reflect the worst time in our history.Bring back the wreath as the letterhead also.
