We are going to wear the new "reverse" jumper (royal blue with white stripes) against Collingwood and Geelong (clash) in 2012. Good bye Argentinian strip!

So glad to see that homosexual baby blue piece of shower gone :P

I love this new jumper, I know I will be getting my own soon :)

It's a shame because North used to play one touch football just like Argentina - except it was one touch and then a turnover.  ;)

roo boys!

Well now we aren't wearing that strip anymore against your mob or the Cats we will beat you both 8)

I'm sure Eddie will still find a way to make us wear it...

I must be getting old. Will someone please explain to me in words of 1 syllable or less, the difference between a predominantly blue jumper with white stripes and a white jumper with blue stripes. Except for the collar is there a difference.  The jumper you wear with the kangaroo on the front, is that for home games?

The biggest difference is that the sides + back are blue, whereas for the home jumper it is white.

No, the one with the kangaroo on the front is gone now.

Here, compare the two for yourself:

Simply put (in words of 1 syllable or less): less white, more blue.

To be honest, I quite like the jumper and simply can't wait to be able to purchase one for season 2012!

Sure they are different but it doesn't solve the clash issue. Exact same colour palette and design you have just swapped the colours around ::)

I agree c4v3m4n (nice name) I like it. It's a subtle change but it works.

i actually don't see how they could clash anyway, collingwood is black and white, North blue and white, surely that would make them distinguishable ::)

It's true. The Argentina one didn't really help much distinguishing between us and Geelong anyway really, because the stripes go a different way ::)

In your honest opinion, which jumper do you think is better...

The new clash jumper, or the current home jumper?

I don't know what it is about the new clash jumper, but I really really like it....

roo boys!

I do really like it also, but I think I am just so used to the current home jumper. I probably prefer the 'reverse' one, yeah.

roo boys!

North will be wearing it again this weekend against the Tigers.

Don't ask me why it's back, Yellow and Black clashing with Blue and White ??? but I'm happy to see it again.
