Can you get a photo up of that yellow/gold jumper thanks Swampy?
I don't mind what they have above (same as logo) but will have to wear the gold jumper against Crows and Swans, Lions.
they're not at all. in most cases the home team will wear their home strip and the away team will just wear whatever doesn't clash with it. whenever west coast play the bulldogs in melbourne west coast wear their home jumper because their away jumper is royal blue.I'm not sure that the AFL honchos would allow that, otherwise why do they insist on this 'Áway Strip' syndrome they've foisted upon every team.
Sure its better to have a dark and light strip, but why does Geelong or Kangaroos have to change their home strip when they play Collingwood?
Your solution is correct, teams should be able to nominate their strip, whether it is dark or light for any match , dependent on the oppositions strip.
But I do believe they are bound by the AFLs H/A strip policy.

sometimes i think people over complicate the afl's uniform policy. basically as long as the team's don't clash (in their view) the teams can wear whatever they want.
the shorts rule isn't the issue. when geelong play north the away wore the home shorts so they'd have 1 team dark and 1 team light. the collingwood vs north issue wasn't shorts it was the stripes.Apart from shorts... Black shorts on collingwood would stop the north clash yet they can't? The shorts rule is the issue.

btw, this isn't my opinion of what clashes, it's my opinion of how the AFL see it
but anyway. as long as gold coast have at least 1 jumper that doesn't clash with a teams home and away jumpers they should be fine. (if that made sense)
well you can try and tell the AFL that but i say they'd think it's the stripes are what clash.Thought that only happened in finals which applies for pies/roos too. Collingwood all black, roos all white there is no clash we see it every pies home game vs north

my eyesights fine so i don't really care.
maybe, but they have changed shorts in recent north vs geelong matches (some were home and away matches) so the afl aren't strict on the home=dark shorts, away=white shorts policy. i think it's more a tradition that we're all just used to than something that the afl forces.All we would have to say is look at collingwood home games vs north... The stripes are a problem when they blend with white shorts to make collingwood look blurishly white in fast play clashing with north. They key is the shorts. If the shorts can't change then yes we need to fix the stripes.

So realistically LeeArm, if any team has three strips to choose from, then no clash will occur. OK - so each team then must have three strips- is that the AFL policy.
In that case, GC has shown us two strips, do they need a third???
[I seem to remember Essendon wearing red shorts and Richmond gold shorts. Is that part of their third strip? Perhaps GC could wear gold shorts too as a third strip.]
