Heheheee...My Mrs flew to Guernsey for work yesterday. When she arrived back, she told me of the sports store in the main street....
You guessed it...
GUERNSEY JERSEYS
(and for those of you who didn't know...Jersey is a neighbouring island)
[/OFF TOPIC]
Since when have we ever played footy in a jersey, or a guernsey for that matter? It's a jumper (ie. footy jumper).
Maybe that's the Victorian coming out in me?
I thought all terms guernsey, jersey and jumper were all interchangable.
Or the alternative someone else suggested to me is that Guernsey is South Australian like reading the field positions from the Forward line down or the checkside punt.
Jersey is from NSW and Jumper is Victorian...
I had the pleasure of being coached by one of WAs favourite sons, Roy Arbon(father of former East Coast player Matt)and the amount of times i ws corrected by him and his wife was unfathomable, they even went as far as printing out the Dictionary meaning of both words in "the Bombers View" newsletter.Prob a WA thing i guess, but always different to RL and their sleeved variety.Originally posted by Steiger

Stieger mayber Im old school but we used to refer to our jumper as a guernsey when I was a kid living in Melbourne.
It was always your footy jumper in Perth - can't remember anyone but the commentators talking about "guernseys".
I always thought a guernsey didn't have sleeves but a jersey did. So when playing footy, one wore a guernsey.
my apologies rooster for bringing up a relevant topic, one in which doesnt give u the oppotunity to kiss ur own ass!!Originally posted by The Rooster
young kanga i pose yet another question to you or maybe some advice......... stop worrying about the off field happenings out there and campbelltown and start getting fit and getting your on field things right...... surely instead of typing this sort of stuff you could be out on a 5 km run..... just my opinion from an outsider looking in.......
