Genuine question, has the normalisation of white clash jumpers due to the AFL's rules over the past decade essentially brainwashed people to vote for a white jumper (non-club colour)? Despite their being plausible options in club colours?

Maybe a little but I think the white one actually looks pretty good. It's easier to have a white clash than two (a yellow and a red).

Yellow and Red can look horrendous if not done properly. White with traditional colours atleast has the colours but isn't garish.

We did have a Heritage Jumper in Yellow which looked good. I'd have that design as a clash, but am really wary of the yellow design put to the vote because we could look like a jar of mustard or a bunch of lemons out on the field.
 
Did anyone else notice Port wore their home guernsey against the dogs?
Both teams had white numbers on dark guernseys.
Both had a bit of white on the front

I thought they'd changed their black guernsey to have a white back with black number ..? Surely this would have been more appropriate

Maybe that's why port burnt the Ball so much

It was just referred to around these parts as the 'Guernsey of Death'.

That's pretty funny.

To this non-fan, I seem to associate red as a Crows colour moreso than yellow.

I'm following the progress of this very keenly, given my own club's extreme slowness in providing any news whatsoever. Our poll was held in September last year and STILL no updates! Can we borrow your new CEO for a while, please?

Nope, we kinda like him. :)

So did you guys have a fan poll like this with options provided as well? Very odd that almost a year later and there has been no updates.
 
I think if they decide to go for the yellow one, that the Toyota sign needs to be blue.
Red on a yellow background doesn't look too great when not being contrasted by a third colour.

Yep, we had a poll to 'return the wings' (and kill the tri-panel) in 2016. There was the hint that the yellow strip from the late 80s could also become our clash.

Communications coming out of the club indicate that there needs to be at least 12 months notice given to the AFL for jumper changes. So if you guys get it sorted in such a short time, well, we'll have some questions for the club.

Is this true?
I thought they were est 1370
Surely they weren't magpies while they were baby blue and white...?

They wore magenta & blue in their first game, not switching to black & white until 1902.

Their first 10 years weren't at Alberton Oval either.
