We have away games against Carlton (this week), Adelaide and Richmond in which I think we'll be wearing the red-back hot cross bun. Not sure about the red shorts that we wore with it in the pre-season though.

Going solely on the screenshot of Darcy Moore in the swooping magpie I'm gonna say the clubs had already agreed that the Pies would wear that and we would wear the red-backed hot cross bun (sell some more merch etc.), probably with red shorts like we did in the pre-season against Essendon.

As much as I'd love to see the original jumper worn again (as per the 140th year jumper) this sounds like the most symbolic, likely option. Would absolutely love to see a current-day jumper with the large crest.

This design really shows up the weakness/flimsiness of Sekem's collar.

GWS wore a VFL version of the Never Surrender with white shorts against the Suns on the weekend (is the G in a slightly different spot?)

St Kilda's clash jumper would be much more effective with a Port-style white number panel with a black number. It's a bit of a tough one against Brisbane/Melbourne/Essendon otherwise (and we didn't wear it against GWS whereas we have worn our mostly-white designs against them in previous years).

Was Aliir wearing a long-sleeve retail with iron-on numbers? His 21 looked smaller than and was placed differently to the other numbers (this is the best photo I could find).

Brisbane wore the Fitzroy (well, Fitzroy-inspired) jumper late last year away to the Dockers, so I'd assume we'd be seeing that. Any weekend where the South Melbourne and Fitzroy jumpers make an appearance is a good weekend.

Collingwood in their away jumper and shorts against Richmond in all home is delightful.

This game might show the weakness of St Kilda's clash jumper's all-red back (assuming we wear it). Really needs a white panel with black numbers like Port's home. We'll have two teams with red across the top half of the front of the jumper, and white numbers with a fair bit of red on both backs...

This week's review was very tough. The ghosts of 2017; the inevitability of it all; the Saints' sins interstate; and Max King and Jack Higgins: Who pulled the curtains?

The side panels on the player issue really weaken that and really intrude on the design.

To me it looks like they've cartoonified the logo.
