Looks good but what's with these new club jumpers taking leaves from the Victorian state jumper?? Are Port and Freo trying to win friends?
I actually thought their old strip was fantastic.
And green!
Green is great.
I can't understand why Gold Coast, with a chance to design a jumper from scratch, went with orange/red and yellow.
Looks like a McDonalds advert.
I'm a bit sad they've dropped the anchor.
The new jumper reminds me of Bill Oddie's purple trousers in the Goodies.
They should keep as much of the port and ocean - related references as possible. The anchor, the wharfie bloke who raises the anchor, the heave-ho. It locates them and gives them authenticity. Our club could do with incorporating some local references of its own (no that does not mean going back to the FFC name).
Highpoint, Vic Uni, bad KFC, Scumshine.
Although, does 'Western' cover nouveau riche areas like Altona, Willy, Seddon etc.? Heck, could we claim the Docklands?
The new Freo jumper isn't bad, it looks like and older style Rugby League jumper to me, sans sleaves & collar.
