Fashion Disgrace - Norwood's zip up jumper.

I knew I had evidence of this abomination somewhere.
Anyone got any idea who was responsible for this?

Yes, I remember them, thought they were shocking !!!

I didn't like the stretch lycra version they had either...

Is the Norwood player standing up a young Roger James ???

I heard Neil Craig was responsible, could be wrong though.

Looks okay on James - didn't have a photo of Jars or Prime?

Yeah, think it was Neil Craig's idea to make it hard to tackle.

i reckon it was neil craig as well, something about making it harder for the opponents to tackle them as you couldn't grab the 'jumper' as easily as other materials, however i think i read that this material (lycra) didn't breathe which resulted in more fluid loss (sweat) than other jumpers
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

i was thinking that too...a very serviceable defender for the blues in the late 90's early 2000's.

I think he played over a 100 games (not sure if that was all up or just with sturt tho)
Carn the blues!!!!!
