    Re: What's your favourite Bulldogs jumper?

    Nice idea to re-post this TCD and it is interesting to read the mixed views on the subject.

    I like our colours and don't mind all of the guernseys but if I had to say, I'd pick the old one. The classic look always appeals to me.

    Our colours are that good even the AFL have stolen them.

      I tend to like the clash jumper, but after looking at the mostly red one it grows on you, funny thing is I picture it running in the wash, maybe thats why they stopped wearing it!

        Your avatar Ledge (and part of TCD's) we should adopt that I reckon for clashes

        I'm a merchadise freak though - this probably sounds wrong, but I'd love to see more unofficial merch like scarves on sale outside the ground on game days (like EPL games) the AFl would likely send cops to rush them off the concourse at the Dome!

          I think my favourite jumper has yet to be manafactured.

          Hopefully looking forward to wearing a jumper in 2009 that has an added logo\emblem that no other team will have in 2009

              what kind of colour is white for a football kit.

              i understand the need for it but i'd prefer if it was a red based one.

              that desgin you have there is not too bad.

                Did people used to bag out South Melbourne for their hideous predominantly white strip? It's not like white football jumpers are a new thing. I don't mind the away strip. It could have been worse. Just look at Brisbane's collision of colours strip this year.
                I'd still be happy to lose the dog off of our jumpers and am an unashamed fan of the older style jumper we'll be wearing this week.

                  I prefer this clash jumper to the shockers we have had during the pre-season games ... just look at the okre coloured one (if you don't remember it, checkout The Coon Dogs avatar) ... Now that's disgusting

                    Older jumper for me. It just has a more traditional feel, which I think is an important factor in the team jumper. I'm still not completely sold on the newer dog emblem...

                      The clash looks ok without the shorts.

                      What I do hate is the way the blue has changed over the years. I prefer a darker blue like the 1946 jumper:

                        If we adopt this older style as our home kit, the current away strip can be adapted by removing the logo to represent a slight variation of the home kit.
                        The clash could be improved if the red and blue hoops were wider so the white wasn't as predominant, and take away the logo. Its those bloody white shorts with the white jumper that makes the overall look shocking to my likeing.

                          The "'older" style leaves everything else in the shade. The red with the red-white-blue sash, the 1935 and even the 1897 offer a range of choices for a clash jumper without having to add yet another stylistic nightmare. The club's history is rich in design. forget about fads.

                                The premiership jumper is my favourite by a long stretch, followed by the current clash strip. If they'd drop the Dog off it, it'd be brilliant.

                                Other than that the "70s" jumper is up there with the best, its the jumper I grew up looking at. Pretty sure I have my long sleeve woollen one with red cuffs and collar floating around.

                                As far as the clash strips went, the new one is best but I am guilty of liking both the night jumper we wore around '96 and the Origin energy themed one. Our VFA jumper would be a good alternative though.
