I'm hoping common sense prevails with our game and we wear our home jumper (since this game is in Hobart and not Melbourne) with maroon shorts. Just like in the 1999 preliminary final.

Also would like to see Port in the wharf pylons and white shorts and Adelaide in their regular home jumper and navy shorts in all showdowns going forward.

What will GWS be in against Geelong?

 

[eddo1025]

Anyone notice Pies had KFC on their shorts last night as opposed to Emirates?

 

[Barrybran]

Not feeling this yoke on the Carlton jumper

The shorts they should of worn on Anzac Day

Clash, Geelong in Navy shorts.

edit: this is my assumption. We haven't played them outside of Indigenous round for a few years, and we did this v North in 2023.

Crows in their red jumper in the Showdown.

I'm not even kidding.

So they now clash with Port, but Carlton don't clash with Collingwood??

EDIT: It's the SANFL Showdown. I'll sit back down.

Realistically they probably should be wearing a clash jumper against us, and given we don’t wear the bars in their home showdown (which would contrast fine with white shorts) we should probably wear ours too. But that’s its own discussion I guess.

Aesthetically pleasing in Darwin

just called this the "Bananas in Pyjamas" jumper

 

[parano1a]

Crows should be in red or gold shorts.

 

[Freo16]

Richmond v West Coast is another one of those ugly matchups, it may not be a straight up clash but it really doesn’t look great and there’s way too many of these types of matchups happening these days.

Don’t know if the eagles gold jumper would be any better here or if both these teams probably need a white jumper for when they play away against each other.

I think if the Eagles wore a primarily blue jumper, without as much yellow, we could see a better matchup. Either way, the eagles blue is just that little bit too dark to look right

 

[Supercheapgiants]

GWS will be in full home v Geelong in white shorts

*Fun Fact: This is the first time since mid 2022 that GWS have worn their home guernsey away from home

Eagles should defn try their gold v richmond

Was done in 2017, looked much better

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

Yeah Eagles in Blue is so unnecessary when they've got a perfect option right there.

North and Lions also wasn't a clash, but would've looked lovely with teams in full home kits.

Common sense prevai-...

Common sense in a North game?

You're funny

Surprised they don't wear their Never Surrender kit. Would look beautiful.

Was done in the 2021 Semi, and we lost pretty poorly so never again I suppose
