If I were a player and they gave me my unused long sleeve at the end of the season I'd probably keep it anyway

I have both BLK and Asics Dogs guernseys and their colours are definitely different. BLK has darker blue and less vibrant blue.
Or give them away to someone poor.. like meIf they are unused, either recycle the material or sell them at the end of the year, or even give them away to charities/homeless ect
I know it's a waste, but they really should for this reason.

Yeah he's definitely wearing an Asics longsleeve underneath. You can see there's two red neck tabs in the collars.I have both BLK and Asics Dogs guernseys and their colours are definitely different. BLK has darker blue and less vibrant blue.

I just like the look of a well made long sleeve over the two jumpersOR just continue to do it the way they do now because 95% of people won't even notice/care. I mean, even in international soccer players wear long sleeve undershirts under their short sleeved kits, instead of wearing proper longies. This really isn't any different to that. I don't see it as a huge issue.
If you check out the Footscray VFL Instagram page you'll find photos of him wearing two jumpers, along with other players who have worn two as well.True, I did see that.
Does anyone else think it's to honour the Jumper Presentation pre-game? He got a regular guernsey given to him, so he wore that on top of his longy?
Interesting. Maybe he wanted to warm upIf you check out the Footscray VFL Instagram page you'll find photos of him wearing two jumpers, along with other players who have worn two as well.
Well the field umpires get their number on the back. My guess is they have a stock of plain ones made up and then get the four appointed field umpires' numbers heat-pressed on during the week. It's just typical AFL fixing the the issue that was complained about but not extending it consistently and logically across all matches involving yellow/gold jumpers.I half wonder if the AFL only made one set of grey jumpers for the umps.
What I meant was only one set of 10 grey jumpers, not that I paid attention to whether it's the same 10 umpires who officiated all 3 games this year featuring grey umps (sure that Schmitt did tho). Anyway, yes, incredibly reactive. And smacks of cost cutting (remember back when umps had red, yellow, green and white?)Well the field umpires get their number on the back.

They thought they'd come across a winner with the lime-green, and they had until Richmond's yellow clash tops came along. One colour was good because it was perceived to attract less attention. However now we've got to a point where at least one other colour is needed.What I meant was only one set of 10 grey jumpers, not that I paid attention to whether it's the same 10 umpires who officiated all 3 games this year featuring grey umps (sure that Schmitt did tho).

Beautiful work thanks for the infoThey thought they'd come across a winner with the lime-green, and they had until Richmond's yellow clash tops came along.

In round 6 vs Adelaide it was Rosebury, Stephens, Hosking, Hundertmark
Round 15 vs Port it was Schmidt, Ryan, Mollison, Hundertmark
Round 16 vs St Kilda it was Schmidt, Ryan, Mollison, Fleer.
Unsurprisingly the goal umpires in the Port game didn't get grey rain-jackets, but then again they've been using the old BLK jackets up until a couple of weeks ago anyway.
I'm a fan of going grey for all matches except where GWS is in their home jumper, and then use the green for that because nobody wears their yellow/gold jumpers against GWS's home jumper anyway.Beautiful work thanks for the info
The NRL had a smooth few years with pink ref jerseys. But no good for AFL (4 teams in red/orange hue + runners).
Why do the field umpires need numbers at all? All it does is piss off the fans because we now know the name of the prick that is being inconsistent.Well the field umpires get their number on the back.

I thought numbers were used on a footy ground for the pure reason of knowing who they are reporting and so the goal umpires can mark down goal kickers. Having the umpires with numbers is pointless, we don't do it for the boundary or goal umpires, why the field umpires?Why do the field umpires need numbers at all?

This hasn't happened in donkeys. At least not at (semi-)professional level. We just keep the scores.so the goal umpires can mark down goal kickers.
I should have said, the original intention of numbers on footy jumpers. But yes, that is true too. At least they keep the tradition of waving the flags after the siren...makes me think of the little message "scores correct" on the dot matrix old scoreboard at Footy Park.This hasn't happened in donkeys.

It's a good thing they do that still, after the first Showdown at AO the electronic scoreboard operator added a behind in the 4th from when the ball went through but a free was paid so it was never signalled or waved.I should have said, the original intention of numbers on footy jumpers.

Would like to see a better design though. The current one looks like a pre-game warmup shirt.I'm a fan of going grey for all matches except where GWS is in their home jumper, and then use the green for that because nobody wears their yellow/gold jumpers against GWS's home jumper anyway.
"Tradition" I guess? Like why we can't have names on jumpers? Or send-offs? Or Melbourne team jumper clashes ("we've done it for 125 years there's nothing wrong if you disagree you're blind waaah waaah")Why do the field umpires need numbers at all?

Yeah just needs lime-green side-panels and the numbers/OPSM in white or green not black.Would like to see a better design though. The current one looks like a pre-game warmup shirt.
