Entirely black back. Didn't mind it personally.

Spoke to a Bulldogs supporter today who, without any prompting, remarked how good the Saints jumpers looked on TV last night.

The white is too thin!

All panels should be of equal size!

ANY changes to the jumper should be voted in by a majority of MEMBERS, NOT by the whims of a board member or two!

I think it's disgraceful that these decisions are made without any consultation with the members!

Loved it!!!

it's amazing how much difference such a small extra amount of black has made.

Looks a bit "tougher' too for mine....I know that sounds silly, but that's what I see

I'm not happy with them just tweaking the design of the jumper on a whim.

Pick a design and stick with it.

I agree. It makes it look too similiar to Essendon's, but otherwise it looks sharp enough.

I think the idea of tweaking the design is all to do with marketing.

Nothing's sacred in footy today.

How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ? :lol:

Very aggressive looking, a winner as far as I'm concerned.

Is that when the jumper is laid flat on a table or when it's wrapped around a body?

There is a difference.

It's not surprising that the teams with the most premierships have had the least changes. Alas, the reverse is also the case. Pick a design and stick with it for the next 100 years. Then change it. Just what do these morons think the word "tradition" means? (Just call me Tevya). Yes of course you can sell more of new design than an old, but I would take a flag anytime over sales.

How does tinkering with your jumper cost you a flag? :shock:

Interesting thoughts. Maybe we should play nude and catch the opposition off guard. Hang on, that would only work for some players.

It looked OK from the front.

BUT

From the back I kept thinking we looked like Carlton.
We need some red and white, even if only a border.
R W & B is our brand.

So basically I think it is a fail.

The back had a fair bit of white - I call them numbers. :wink:

And since when did the back ever have any red?

The back never had any red.

But at least with the white border we didn't look like Carlton.

We should have a jumper that is uniquely StKilda.
And is readily identifiable from ALL sides.

I agree with Barks, we should go back to the three even width panels at the front.

But perhaps the back should have a narrow red and white border so we look like StKilda from behind.
