Out on the full kicks.If the game is tied, what about most boundaries? How do we count most boundaries in footy?
Becauase they don't play anyone with a predominantly white home kit against whom it needs to be wornThe other piece of the puzzle in all this Geelong silliness is that Geelong DOES have a majority dark guernsey this year, yet to be worn:

In theory, against an all-white Collingwood, I don't think that would do its job as a clash quite as well as the opposite (all-black C'Wood vs all-white Geelong). There are still 5 white hoops on the front, whereas C'wood have just 3 white stripes on their black-base.The other piece of the puzzle in all this Geelong silliness is that Geelong DOES have a majority dark guernsey this year, yet to be worn:

Slightly off topic, SA based posters will be interested to note that in the lead up to the SANFL GF, promo pictures of Port and Glenelg players in the local media feature Port in white shorts and Glenelg in black.
I don't think Port have one...unsure about Glenelg.Is either team wearing a clash guernsey? Forgive my SANFL ignorance
Contrast-wise it makes sense for Port to wear white shorts even though we have earned the right to wear black shorts. From many years of watching the 2 jumpers opposed regardless of shorts colour you get used to it and a clash doesn't really occur - there's enough difference between the jumpers on front & back. I'm happy with white shorts.Slightly off topic, SA based posters will be interested to note that in the lead up to the SANFL GF, promo pictures of Port and Glenelg players in the local media feature Port in white shorts and Glenelg in black.
Glenelg used to have one from memory, used to be the same as Richmonds preseason one with the logo on front.
Probably no great surprise but a friend within the GWS Giants said that the Giants are wearing home guernsey and white shorts on Saturday.
As said many times here it really makes no sense to add white to a team that has (hardly) any white against a team that does.
I'm a Collingwood supporter but I agree with what a lot of you have written already -so frustrating is that our president feels there should be a 'gentleman's agreement' or 'common sense' when it comes to Geelong (us dark them light) but this logic doesn't apply to say this week against GWS or in Collingwood home games against Carlton where us in white shorts would create the contrast required with both clubs remaining in home guernseys.
Nah coz the alternative would be his team wearing the white shorts.I’m sure Ed will say something about white shorts again this week if it occurs
Orange shorts against Collingwood make sense but please, no red or yellow shorts for Essendon and Richmond unless they're wearing red and yellow jumpers.Dare I say it... orange shorts? Heck, bring back Essendon and Richmond's red and yellow shorts, for the fun of it.
I think that's what he meant, as they uniforms for GWS, Richmond, Essendon in these cases just being full orange, yellow, red, respectively (just as if it were all white for Collingwood, for example).Orange shorts against Collingwood make sense but please, no red or yellow shorts for Essendon and Richmond unless they're wearing red and yellow jumpers.
If you look at recent history, if the Giants were to get up tomorrow they would wear their home jumper.Either Pies or Giants will be in all white for the Grand Final.
