Now there's an idea for a collingwood clash strip. White with a big picture of Eddie's head.

What Collingwood clash strip?
they dont have a CLASH jumper, but its called an away jumper.
remember the one they played in against us in round 8? thats the one
Struggling to see the difference between that and what they normally wear, to be honest Dools.
even though it isnt a clash jumper because it has vertical lines in it i actually like it :oops:
it looks like the same as their home jumper on the front, and the back has been changed from black to white, just like i want our jumper to be.

Our white alternate strip is not very good. why is our logo faded out&all cracked for?? I don't know why we changed it aye, i really really like our candy striped one. Wear it every 2nd game, even our training jumpers are better then that crap as white thing.

why cant we use the 1933 style jumper (white sleeves) with the white back (instead of black)??? Is there something within the AFL that says the clash strips have to be uber modern and dated (within a couple of years)?
and not something from a club's heritage?

Confirmed by the club this morning on the phone that the" white nighties" are coming out tonight...

Are going to write a letter to Matthew Drain about the growing wide supporter discontent [would be interested in how the players feel :roll: ]with this pathetic jumper and the need for St.Kilda to develope a strong clash jumper with a predominately red background or alternatively just a white or red back with our traditional jumper.

We need to develop a distinctive look and brand and not wear something that doesn't reflect our Red,White and Black trade mark...

Would like to include some pictures of some of the brilliant alternate jumper designs that some posters like Armoo have come up with..

PM me if you are interested in being involved in approaching the club as a supporter/member representative group.

Sure a members vote would reflect a disatisfaction with the current clash jumper.

Hope we smash the blues regardless 8-)

Suggest as a protest we all get bottles of White-Out and mail them to the club.

I wouldn't worry guys. The AFL requires clash jumpers to be valid for two years, unless you apply to the league to do otherwise. Geelong did it last year to incorporate their new logo into their clash jumper, and Melbourne have said they will do it at the end of this year.

Considering the second season of these is almost up, I would expect a change for next season.

On a somewhat unrelated topic, we have worn them on the following occasions:

R1 2007 v Melbourne @ MCG - Win
R9 2007 v Fremantle @ Subi - Loss
R14 2007 v Collingwood @ MCG - Loss
R17 2007 v Carlton @ Telstra Dome - Win
R6 2007 v Port Adelaide @ AAMI - Loss
