Jumper clash fails

I really really hope we wear our away top against the Bulldogs if they wear that "thing".

Would solve the all red backs issue. Still wouldn't look great but that is all on the Bulldogs, due to the horrible thing they are wearing.

Take what’s logical, and they’ll do the opposite.

Just wear white shorts. Problem solved. Get your eyes checked! /S

The main issue with AFL jumper designs are that the front and back are different colours or shade. Having a dark back, light front, makes it difficult to have a clash to fix it. Other teams have to then have a contrasting design for front and back.

Hawthorn's 2008 clash/away jumper was terrible for this reason, with the dark brown back, and white front. Looked terrible against Fremantle, and they wouldn't have had a jumper to cater for it.
 
Oh no, I won't be able to tell who's playing for who because I only have a 12" black and white portable tv and really, really bad reception and my glasses broke...

Simplistic view and classic reductio ad absurdum. Richmond have a jumper that would contrast much better than their current choice. Anythign to help everyone tell teams apart is a good thing imo.
 
Does anybody even know why Richmond wore their clash strip in the GF?

Since 2015 when it was introduced they’ve worn their yellow clash strip away vs Adelaide and because they were the ‘away’ team in the GF that rule still applied.

I honestly thought that once they'd worn their perfectly good clash strip in a Grand Final that we were final done with this childish refusal to wear a clash strip. It appears not.

I think we're all waiting for Carlton to pick a clash jumper that they're not embarrassed by, and then the AFL will finally get serious about forcing them to wear it.

Well they won't if the AFL don't make them wear whatever monstrosity they've conjured up in any given year, will they?

They've gone back to the white/reverse strip which is probably the best they're gonna get.
The light blue with navy monogram is a perfect clash
Its still blue
Only potential clash is if North wear their blue based guernsey, go white base and it's fine.
 
I don't mind the light blue jumper but with light blue shorts as well it looks pretty horrid. I think the all white with navy monogram is our best option.
 
Carlton are being short-sighted constantly changing their clash jumper imo. Just pick one and stick with it until it becomes part of the club's identity.

'But we're the Navy Blues, not the [insert colour here]'

Yeah, yeah, whatever. We all know you actually wear black anyway, everyone but Carlton supporters can see it.

Is it something board candidates wheel out every election? "Grrrr, we're the Blues, big bad AFL, vote me". Not like the members are interested in anything financial.
