I feel that they need to make the north colours more noticable it looks like a doggies jumper missing a blue hoop to me. Or even better just paint it Red and black like it used to be ;) :twisted:

Why should the North cany stripe go up?
As much as I'm a fan of it, the V is our curent design.
How hard would it be to paint a red band, & then stick some purpose designed V stickers?

This should help to distinguish both Central District and North Adelaide.

Hooray, common sense at last.

In that case just leave it the way it is ;)

The chimney has always looked ordinary, the last time it looked great was from Oct 1997 to Sept 1998. :)

Selctive memory hey, I think it is "not sure I WANT to remember that far back..."

If they are upgrading teh chimmney to more accurately reflect North's guernsey, well done to SA Brewing
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Personally I think only the winners colours should go up....thats what they used to do.
Do the losers of the Grand Final really want to see their colours up there ?

It's always been both winner and runner-up after the closeness of the first GF when they did the chimney, and it's been tradition ever since.

Who cares about whether it accurately depicts Norths jumper or not. The tri-colours are on top and that's all that matters. You lot should be happy enough to see your colours up there after 16 years of abscence, let alone sooking about the design.

What does the "V" stand for on the North guernsey again? Perhaps a different letter should be put up in its place? S, D or L perhaps.

:?

What kind of question is that, what does the sash stand for on Westies & the Bays guernseys , what do hooped stripes on Central's and the Crows mean, what do candy stripes mean??
FFS the V is just a modern version of a traditional design.

FWIW North have had at least 4 or 5 varations over the years, the Bay's used to wear yellow with a black V
