If South insist on calling themselves the 'Panthers', why do they still have the 'SA'
monogram on their jumper?
Because its written into the actual SAFC Constitution that any change away from that Guernsey has to be put to members and voted through accordingly, whereas focusing on the name "Panthers" which I don't agree with isn't.
South last had a changed their Guernsey away from the SA logo in the early 1930s and for a Guernsey that had an S and A next to each other and it was changed back after one season and we have kept the same Guernsey continuing ever since. I am fairly certain that any attempt at changing it or adding a Clash Guernsey could expect to be voted down fairly quickly.
Still that said, my mail is that the club are looking at getting the original SAFC Guernsey out for another run which could possibly be used as a Clash Guernsey if we had to, its quite similar to the current Geelong Guernsey but with thinner and more blue horizontal rings running across.
