    I half suspect that's a photoshop job too which may skew the proportions further.

    Agree that blue is bloody lurid.
    That's absolutely Photoshop and a crap one at that. I think. I dunno. Maybe.

    They should have contracted you, Rocket.

    Red cuffs/collar.
    Royal blue.
    Hoops about an inch thicker and an inch higher.

    Reverse with red and white for 2nd and 3rd strips. Easy. But no.

    Change the blue to traditional royal blue. I think Melbourne's blue would be very close now to ours.

    I'm not sure about the red triangle, I'd leave it as blue.
    I am exactly 100% with you on every point.

    Stripes are too narrow and TOO LOW!!! They should be right up under the armpit. Any lower and they would be waist hoops.

    The blue is too lurid, it's a cheap loud Kmart blue, and the red's a bit too lurid for mine as well.

    The red triangle should go.

    There are 4 elements fighting each other.

    The mission logo, the white asic 'swoop' (if that's what it is) The AFL logo and the Mission logo.

    It's way too busy. Ditch the red triangle and put that SWOOP thing somewhere else on the jumper.

    Any one know who's actual job it is to keep tweaking these jumpers?

    Re: Our jumper

    Reckon it's time we put Asics under review. The red triangle looks wrong, and the hoops are too skinny ...again. Don't rate much of the merch they produce either.

    Won't have to twist anyone's arm to go over 2016 GF footage - check the hoops on that little number though. I swear they widened those for that day alone. Damn fine looking strip.

    Just as an aside, I don't mind what Melbourne have done with their clash jumper (the light blue) Wouldn't mind us trying that instead of the white.

    There is no truer 'base issue' among Bulldogs Fans than what the exact width of the hoops on the jumper should be

    Leave it alone. Freeze 2016 in time for a bit longer please. Anyway take comfort. Carlton have to wear their goose liver grey for another year.

    Re: Our jumper

    I remember in the 70s I thought the stripes were a bit low as well.
    Go back to wool and stitched on foam numbers with black shorts and ankle protecting black boots , smokes at quarter time, dressing gowns and duffle coats.
    Coach walks out in a suit , fans run on the ground and watch the team talks , 20c pies , standing on steel cans and watching two old ladies bash each other over the head with umbrellas I say.
    Bring back the biff

    Ah yes, the back bib. A truly intimidating piece of apparel there.
