Apparently its just a 30% chance of the prison bars being ready before the game.

If this doesn't happen, I think RFC should say we have had enough of this farce, we will wear our clash, Port can wear their home jersey as they are entitled, and the AFL should FOAD

What do people think?

The amount of airtime this is getting is hilarious. A product of the saturated footy media these days....

If they can't get the prison bars in time, Port should wear their white strip, and we should wear our home. Its not our problem. Why the AFL have requested this after numerous games of us in our clash and them in their home, who knows, but this whole defy the AFL crap is nonsence on stilts.
 
What a utensil up by the AFL. Just stupid. Jumper clashes would have to be one of the most overstated things in football.

The only thing that has made it worth it is reading the Port fans reaction to it.

If Richmond was in the same position as Port, I really wouldn't have cared if they were forced to wear their away jumper at home. As long as they win and play good, I don't care what colours they wear

Precisely. All 3 of Ports jumpers look good. So do ours.
 
This whole thing has just been unbelievable.
Whoever implemented the black against white crap should be hung.
I reckon there should be a big bloody pow wow at seasons end where it's stipulated which teams clash and what will be done about it.
It's right up there with goal line technology.
Of common sense prevailed you'd find home wears dark shorts,away white and there would be a handful of clashes.
For me Adelaide are about our only real clash.

And yet we don't wear a clash jumper against them from memory.
 
Wouldn't they already have a set of the prison bar guernseys?

nope, they wanted to wear it to commemorate 1914 in R22, but the AFL denied them

they are just making this s**t up as they go....
