you weren’t sure what I was getting at with my comment? Are you thick? I saw team names in a screengrab on Twitter, posted it here and asked if something like this had been done before in a Grand Final. I didn’t inspect the photo with a magnifying glass to see if there was a logo stencil before posting here. Not sure what else there is to get.

Given the nature of this forum, there’s generally a very high attention to detail. That’s all.
 
The WB patch not fully covering shits me.
On the field, WB logo before Melbourne (1st in ranking + alphabetically) shits me.

I assume it’s because the blue arc is left of screen and red arc is to right?

Re-read your comment. It made it sound like you thought it was definitely going ahead, not "IF this was going to happen, is it the first time?".

Anyway, let's move on...

Are Knight's posters overkill when compared to Paul Harvey's?

The 57 years AFL esque logo being on the wrong side really gets to me.

How good are the Bulldogs training guernsey’s?
Gold Coast or Tasmania would do alright in their colours with this template.

excuse me? My original comment literally had a question mark, asking if it would be the first time.

Thanks for reminding me why this part of Bigfooty is literally the worst to be a part of.

I’m not sure what’s up with the square around the dees top, surely that irons out or isn’t left on all tops and for the dogs, just a disgrace and very annoying, however what do you expect for having a s**t kit

I can’t be the only one who’s been thinking all week that this isn’t an acceptable level of contrast for a H&A game let alone a Grand Final. Don’t start me on tradition.


I think it's fine Gibbsy. It's getting close, but still fits into my personal view of 'sufficient contrast'.

It's fine, they are different shades of blue, and white shorts for the Dogs matches the white stripe in their jumper.

Sure. But if it was the other way around, it would be fairly terrible. Dees introducing white to their kit and all the rest of it. And aren’t we past the point of shorts being the differentiators? I’m not trying to be deliberately stubborn, just playing a bit of devil’s advocate.

I think it would look better if the Dogs were in blue shorts too
Just have two solid blocks of dark and light blue going at it

It's borderline. Ideally the Western Bulldogs would be in all white.

I would have preferred Bulldogs in all-white for maximum contrast, but I think the white shorts make this satisfactory. Imagine if Melbourne were the away team, would be a nightmare if they were somehow forced into their clash.
