20. Discuss your version of the clash jumper rule. (An essay is allowed in this question, but is not compulsory) Needs to be judged on a game by game basis. Red can be a clash colour as long as it is different enough from the home. eg inverted Essendon jumper would be an adequate clash (will probably never happen but). Maybe a way to go about it is all 18 clubs have to put all their jumpers for that season to the AFL at the start of the season and any promo jumpers they want to wear (Ports PB in round 23 last year for example) and then the AFL works out what they wear when, then and get back to club. If the club disagrees for any reason they can take it up with the AFL to have the decision changed. If a team goes against the AFLs ruling they are fined.
