Match up should all be down to visually pleasing, nothing more.
Good thing the the most visually pleasing match up is Richmond in Yellow jumper and white shorts then ;)

Fingers crossed that its not a problem anyway and WC steal another couple of final wins - GF jumper problem solved!

As I've said before if we actually make it I don't care what we wear

Ok sure, home is preferred but we have an excellent clash that sums up the club and there are always more GFs

Actually pretty neutral
Adelaide in home+white against Richmond in all black would be absolutely fine.
If that's what was worn by these teams during the season (or in the case of Richmond in all black, last time they met, assuming the jumpers/rules haven't changed since).
You can't say teams clash during the season then suddenly say they don't on GF day.
Just like you can't say a team's clash jumper is fine for three seasons then suddenly say it's not and make the home team wear an alternate jumper.

Or, the AFL need to say that Adelaide and Richmond don't clash but during the season the teams request to wear their alternative jumpers in away games for marketing/contractual reasons but because it's a GF home jumpers will be used unless there actually is a clash.

The Crows wore clash away to Richmond last year. Richmond wore clash away to Adelaide this year. Neither jumper has changed enough that the AFL can say the clash has reduced (based on their decision that there is a clash - in this sense it doesn't matter if it is or isn't; it matters that they've said it is) and therefore nothing changes for the GF.

Carlton still clash with Freo on GF day - Freo finish top, Carlton third, Carlton wear white in the GF.

Slightly back on topic....

Assuming everyone is expecting the stock standard Geelong - Sydney jumper and shorts match-up? That is Geelong get to wear their blue shorts....
I'm actually expecting Geelong to wear white shorts. Maybe it's because they've done it so much, maybe it's because they look so damn good in it?

Won't happen. Think about it. Of the two shorts colours available to Geelong, which of them provides more contrast with an opposition in red and white? Obviously navy.

Yep. Watching the game it is certainly better than white shorts. But that doesn't stop me feeling like they've got something foreign on their legs. I honestly can't remember the last time I saw them in coloured shorts.

I made a $50 bet with 3 people last night that Richmond would be forced into their clash should they play Adelaide in the Grand Final.

Dear god please let it happen.
