The pussy cats have released theirs. Ours must be ready by now?  ???

My understanding is we've submitted a number of designs to the AFL for approval - once they do that the club will release them and we get to vote on our preferred choice.

Why not do it the other way around I here you say, that is we vote and then submit to the AFL?  ??? If we voted and submitted and then the AFL rejected it we'd all be like this  :banghead :banghead :banghead

So the short answer is I reckon we are waiting on the AFL  :thumbsup

Sounds like the AFL are taking there time as the club at least a month ago expected the guernsey to be released within weeks.

Not being the artistic type, but I would have had paw prints for the Cats instead of the scratch marks.  Can anyone do a sample for me?

Courtesy of Mero on BB, this demo of the new Lions clash jumper has some familiar claw marks on it  ;)



There's also a pic of Port Adelaide's new clash strip on BB too  :-X

It's got nothing to do with us as we don't clash with the Saints but their the next club to bring out a clash strip and are copying our members design vote.

The Lions have had a dig at traditional big Victorian clubs about being against alternative strips while showing off their new white one.

I read the article (can do that when I am stuck at home with the flu :P) and they only club the Lions really had a go at was the pies something and blank and white and white and black  ;D

Mero from footyjumpers.com has posted all the clash strips on BF - Link :



Apparently the Saints board ignored and overruled their supporters' choice from two designs.

Only slightly more thought.  What's with the Lions and Cats copying our claws?
