You could win 3 in a row, still won't be. ;)

Anywho, marketing gurus need to change things up every couple of years to sell new merchandise. Been a busy few months at North, thrown out the old logo, Harvey, Petrie, Wells, and a couple of potatoes.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

As well as a new logo, NM will have a different home guernsey next year. Will wear the blue guernsey with white stripes as their home strip

Part of the reason is that we were forced to wear white shorts with our home guernsey quite often, giving the impression we were the away team.
We've had a few different guernseys the last 20 odd years, it's really not that big a deal IMO.
It's not like we're wearing colours that aren't ours.

Let's hope by some miracle North Melbourne survive and can put a team on the park next year! :roll:

C'mon fella, life's not that bad surely.

They could have potentially done some things better but disastrous is a bit OTT. ;)

Trump getting in is fine but North Melbourne having some more blue on their own guernseys is disastrous.

changing your home jumper which you've had since 1933....most clubs wouldn't do that.
sacking four players BEFORE the finals series...ALL clubs wouldn't do that.

Massive change.....swapping the stripes over so we can wear Blue shorts on our Home games :lol:

Being upfront and honest with some legends of your club.....I'd hate to do business with you.

Disastrous!

In other disastrous news they've changed the brand of toilet paper used in their offices. I'm not sure they'll ever recover.
