I wonder if Collingwood are testing the waters for a potential change?

Hopefully. All the feedback seemed pretty positive towards the concept of the kit, just the little executions were off (mismatched eras of logos)

I hope if they did this they’d review the kit rules. It’d be horrible if most weeks it’s Collingwood in a white jumper/black shorts against a team wearing white shorts and a dark jumper. Let them wear white with black shorts too and not like how Geelong wear full white all the time.

I agree, can’t be rules for one and not the other. But we have seen the AFL bend to North’s demands to wear a white jumper with royal blue shorts even when that seems counterproductive. So who knows what we’re going to get, really.
 
It's a pretty simple few fixes to ensure Collingwood, Geelong and North can all wear coloured shorts at all home games. Few clubs expand their guernsey options but mainly, NEW SHORTS!!

Collingwood Home:
Adelaide - Red Clash/Red Shorts
Brisbane - Fitzroy/Blue
Carlton - Baby blue
Essendon - Clash/black or Home/Red
Freo - Lavender or Lilac (or maybe current home)
Geelong - Geelong navy clash (collingwood white shorts)
GC - Home
GWS - Clash/Grey or Orange (white may still be ok here)
Hawthorn - Home or a yellow clash jumper w/brown shorts
Melbourne - Clash/royal or a red clash jumper
North - Centenary or other full blue kit
Port - Teal
Syd - Home
StK - Hot Cross Bun/red shorts
WC - Peril/Blue or Home/Blue
Western - Home

GC - Home
GWS - Clash/Grey or Orange (white may still be ok here)

North - Centenary or other full blue kit
Port - Teal
Syd - Home
StK - Hot Cross Bun/Red shorts
WC - Peril/Blue or Home/Blue
Western - Home (with red shorts maybe)

North Home:
Adelaide - Red Clash/Red Shorts or Home
Brisbane - Home or Fitzroy/red (bears/maroon could work too)
Carlton - Home
Essendon - Home (Home/red works too)

Majority of these are easily solved because they just need different shorts. Most teams don’t sell playing shorts so they could surely make a set in a different colour. They should treat North Melbourne’s blue like they treat Sydney/GCS red and let teams wear coloured shorts against them. I’d say the same about WCE and WB but I think they wear a darker shade of blue?

WC and WB do wear a darker shade, not by much but it is a little darker. Dogs do look nice with white shorts so they could get away with that against some clubs but WC shouldn't ever wear white shorts imo

Kits for Pies vs Lions tomorrow night.

Confirmed Pies are wearing retro kit, Brisbane indicating they are wearing their normal away kit.

I'm a sucker for these quirky one-offs and throwbacks, but apart from the old AFL logo, there just wasn't enough different about it, or enough that screamed "retro" for me. Should have done full length stripes and a full collar for a start. And with it being a bit of a hodgepodge of eras already, probably could have considered those weird mid-80s block numbers.

the shade of purple looks brilliant and really vibrant, better then the purple they have now for their regular home jumper.
I know we’ve had a darker purple since 2010ish but it’s crazy just how different it is when you put this retro jumper side by side with our recent home jumpers.

i’d be making this the home jumper full time next year if this is the jumper we are gonna get. the anchor could be a little bit thicker though.

Something feels off with the stripes not totally covering the guernsey like the top tier 2000 one.

This is easily the best Collingwood uniform.

I’m probably in the minority here but the anchor design looks way better in its original form with the red and green. The all purple version looks incomplete to me.
I'd also prefer it with the red and green, but I'd go for this "Purple Haze" variation over the chevrons as their Main going forward. Having said this, I like the chevron design as well and would be happy to see it pop up regularly as retro/special occasion guernseys too.

I bought a Sekem replica of this exact jumper off eBay the other week and it was too small. Shattering. Gonna clean it up and resell; it had a busted old felt number on the back that I've been trying to remove.
 
The long, ‘polyester era’ anchor looks shit, whereas the old seagull looking original one actually works far better with the modern fit of jumpers and amount of sponsors.

The 2000s anchor just dominates the entire strip too much, the tighter and smaller one has a nicer balance to it

This was my attempt at blending the 90s anchor with the 2000s version, best of both worlds sort of thing.
