Dunno the book.
But my guess is it'll end up remaindered and selling for <$10 if you can wait. A distant(ish) relo once gave me a 1990 book that obviously had that fate. No way she'da given me a 60-buck book.

A fair bit, but I have no regrets.
Really wanted to fork out for something special that I could enjoy for years to come.

Great Christmas gift.
Those memories are something you will always have. To have it captured in that manner is fantastic.

It caught my eye on the online shop. It is billed as a Club Exclusive Hardback Book and is selling for $60.00 -
However I noticed when trying to find some reviews that Big W has the RRP at $47.99 but currently have 39% off the price so you can get it now for just $29. |
Yeh I received my copy 2 weeks ago.
I was so unsure of what to expect, but it exceeded all my expectations.
The quality of it is great. Its filled mostly a huge photo book with plenty of written commentary about players, stories, highlights of the year and GF.
The first 100 pages features a few forwards by Jeff Browne & Craig McRae. And then highlights of special things that happened throughout the year.
THEN 100 pages of almost a blow by blow of the Grand Final and events before and after. It is amazing. I can't recommend it enough.

I have noticed that there is no Nike apparel available in the online shop.
Does anybody know if we are we changing manufacturers or just sold out as usually at this time of year the previous seasons gear is generally discounted in the clearance section.

They sold out of a lot of stuff during the finals.
I was in the shop prior to Christmas to swap sizes of the Nike premiership guernsey and they had sold out of all the mens sizes, only had limited womens sizes. Was told by the staff that they would not be getting any more in, there were also other items (like the beige premiership cap) that were limited editions.
New season gear will be arriving during February depending on the suppliers.

Some new season apparel, training gear with gold ticks and guernseys without the gold logos, came out at Rebel and AFL Stores just before Christmas.

Great photos. Could have focused more on the H&A season but does have in depth finals commentary.

I wonder why the guernseys don’t have the gold logo.
Is this a permanent change or just an oversight with the first batch of guernseys?

There was a report that Nike had already start producing the guernseys before the grand final so too late to change. Hopefully the next batch has them, but even pre Xmas seems a bit earlier than usual for Nike!
Hopefully they get some proper ones out before the season with the gold logo.

Was told by a close friend that works as a sales rep for Nike that the jerseys in which we can buy will have the GOLD afl logo on them.
As in terms of availability watch this space but looking like starting to roll them out in around 6 weeks time so 1 or 2 weeks before our round zero gws match.
It will be sold at the Collingwood shop at AIA first for in person sales first then after that online via the clubs website.
As in terms with shops like Rebel sports eg lets say more like around rounds 6 or 7.
Will be exclusively sold by the club first.
They get first dibs.
