If we must have clash jumpers, why are they so similar?
That’ll teach youThe fact that I was so desperate for some footy that I watched the aflx draft and witnessed the extreme cringworthyness of Dangerfield being a total DH.
Yep. The push and shove seems to have been forgotten about since Rnd 2 Hawks v Bulldogs game.....which were confirmed by AFL to have been correct, which arguably cost us the game. Since then there have countless “incorrect” decisions (or non decisions) made and nothing said. Pathetic AFL.Umpires telling players not to get involved in a scuffle when their player has the free kick/kick on goal. Just reverse the free kick and make sure you say into the microphone who you’re paying it against. I bet you that will work 100x better in because said player won’t do that again after they get the tap on the shoulder at the next break.
Also when free kicks off the ball are paid. If you’re 100m away from the ball, why do players think they are entitled to touch another player? When the balls in play, by all means do what you can to stop your opponent. But when it’s so far away it makes me irrationally angry to see players give away those free kicks.

What’s the solution? Let the clash remain?Richmond having to wear their "clash" jumper against the Crows in the GF was so regrettable. It took a little shine off the long awaited joyous flag, at least for a neutral like me.
"Port Adelaide won 123 to 86 today. The game was a **censored** affair, with many **censored** throughout the afternoon. However, Port's advantage in **censored** told in the end. For the winners, Boak had **censored**, with support from Westhoff, who bobbed up with **censored**. For special comments, here's a retired player."
Player: "**censored**"

Or should Adelaide (the team who finished higher) have worn their clash strip?
Fair enough. The should probably figure out what clashes at the start of each year. And the away team must always be the one to where the clash strip if there is one.I don't see a clash between Richmond's jumper and the Crows. So the question is redundant for me.
Or the exception to the rule. I think the hawks want him on the edge so they are ok with the occasional free here and there.James Sicily is living proof that this won't happen.
Why do we have rule changes every flipping year? We need a five year amnesty.
Surely in footy, the number of contested situations is significantly higher than in basketball and thus the ball is in dispute for significantly more time?
This would in turn place greater emphasis on possession as a more meaningful stat than in basketball.
/shrug, I don't know, I could be way off the mark.

If two opinions, statements, or qualities clash, they are very different from each other
Correct: they don't clash, they're similar.
That GF needed one team to wear an alternate jumper. Otherwise it was predominantly navy with orange/gold vs predominantly black with yellow. All those colours and proportions are similar. Day GF makes it even worse.
This is clearly better View attachment 653666 than this View attachment 653664
Can you tell the difference in the second pic? Of course. But it's not clearly differentiated and presents like s**t.
Why are we so behind when it comes to this in the AFL? Two clearly differentiated teams should be the objective of each match-day.
Now that we have a Lloooydd I find myself calling out Lloooydd at the ground or at home. Kinda fun and a poor mans version of yelling out ‘the package’!!BT and the way he says Lloooydd.
