    Please Don't Wear Red

    index.jpg

    To the esteemed members of our jury. This is my whole case ... I hate this jumper!! I much prefer the white away strip. Please don't wear red this Sunday against the Weasels!!

    If the fact that I hate this strip is not reason enough ... I present exhibit A and B

    index3.jpg
    Exhibit A

    index2.jpg
    Exhibit B


    I don't have facts and figures regarding our win/loss ratio in this jumper ... I just hate the red !!

    In summing up, it’s the constitution, it’s Mabo, it’s justice, it’s law, it’s the vibe, and…no that’s it…it’s the vibe. I rest my case.

      I like red.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          I hate the white, we look like a bunch of old skool umpires running around out there. It just doesn't look like a footy strip. What are we going to do?
          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                  Agree


                  We need a total new look, surely someone can design something nice, or what is wrong with the normal jumper with white shorts.

                      I meant generally.

                          Red is horrible, makes us look like one of those crappy EPL teams
                          The curse is dead.

                                  That team just needs to add blue and they will be right.

                                      Can't recall us ever playing well in red. I like the white, if we need a clash jumper wear the white!

                                          Sadly, we may also be forced to wear it the following week against Norf.

                                              Although I am not a fan of either white or red, as long as we win I don't care.

                                                  Love the red, really powerful. Red is the number one advertising colour, a la Coke and red Ducatis. Red is part of our tricolours and red is our colour. No superstitions to rule out our colour please.
                                                  Red is the colour of alert, the colour of the bullseye. Red can tell our players where our targets are.
                                                  When you think Bulldog, think red.

                                                      I love the red jumper as well. And it's about time we shatter the myth about not playing well in the red jumper once and for all, hopefully starting with this weekend.

                                                      I don't mind the white jumper either. I'm so ambivalent when it comes to what we are wearing - I just want it to be completely different from the opposition.

                                                          Love the white, hate the red. It just doesn't look right. The white is an elegant and simple solution to a problem that mostly doesn't even exist.
