I don't get Carlton's grey tops, the white versions are far superior.

It was contractual, nike demanded two new guernseys each year to sell stock hence the grey getup and nike wanting orange in our jumper (their new brand colour instead of the white swoosh). But the club pushed back and got the shithouse grey shorts thrown out midseason for white shorts (which nike did not produce we had to find another supplier)

That ontop of our monogram and sponsor logos peeling off in games because they were heatpressed on 'blank' jumpers and not part of the fabric design.

And now Carlton have signed with Puma for 10 years in the largest sports apparel deal in australia, finally ditching nike who have now exited all AFL and Rugby deals in Aus because they only care about soccer and basketball (and are failing in making good shoes for the nba)

Our clash strip is white again this year but hasn't been revealed yet (even if we're supposed to play in it this weekend) and not for sale yet because nike don't care.

I hope we go back to oxford blue with puma next year as our guernseys have looked close to black for a decade now.

On examination AOSMA does not control or staff the ticketing office at Adelaide Oval because it's a Ticketek office with Ticketek systems, but Ticketek does not staff the office either, and instead contracts it out to a labour hire firm called McArthur Recruitment because neoliberalism, and they're claiming a miscommunication between those contractors, and the security guard contractors who are also not ground employees, so ultimately the blame dissipates as it tries and fails to find someone responsible.

Wow that's crap. Says the supervisor who gave the direction was stood down from their position and suspended for two weeks. Not sure that's a sufficient punishment.

EDIT: Jess Foley has been amazing for a first year player.

Prespakis will win best first year player and rising star, shes like equal 5th on coaches votes anyway.

Does having cocaptains count as one vote for both or are they individual? Might hurt the crows and doggies for best captain award.

There was vision of Grimes going down off the ball after a collision with Cox. I don't know there was that much in it. Hopefully Grimes gets way more for his hit on Elliott.

I think it was Grimes anyway. I'm bad at names.

Here is the Cox one

Grimes only got a week for his elbow to the face of Elliot. Cox should have got nothing and Grimes should get 2+. Instead we get a week each.

gabensraum posted:

Collingwood's away top is better than their home top and I'm sure was just their regular top when I was a kid. North Melbourne is the same, when they do the simple reverse. The extra white looks better.

Hawthorn's away top is now excellent but Kennett is wrong, white can be a brilliant guernsey colour when done well. I don't get Power and Carlton's grey tops, the white versions are far superior.
Yeah, Collingwood switched to mainly black around 2000 (lemme check footyjumpers) 2001, I guess because they thought it looked baller, but yeah, I think they actually look more "Collingwood" with the white. Funny thing is that I think Eddie has stipulated they'll be wearing mostly white as the "home" side against Carlton later on too.

The Power's new grey I quite like *although* maybe their traditional white block for the numbers would work well to improve the contrast. Also it effectively means no teal on their jumper so, well, it's a monochrome jumper! They snuck that one past Eddie.

Grey doesn't work for Carlton though, baby blue is too Sturt so I think the white is best.

We will not speak of the Thor jumper again. Leave that poo poo for the NRL.

I'm OK with the Mustardpot for us but I still think going to the trad Mayblooms as an away (i.e. mostly brown) would've work better as an alt rather than just a straight reverse stripes.

It might have to be a Museum commissioned rehash (like the diamonds) but I'd like to see the 98-99 hawk thing as a one-off, maybe. Although almost nothing remarkable happened in those years for the club except Crawf's Brownlow or their last competition game at Waverley. There! It can be the Crawford Legends jumper next year.
