Troy Makepeace PI long sleeve from the 2006 exhibition game in LA. Only time I recall North having blue numbers on the home strip

Correct.
Exhibition games, Trial games, Practice matches are non-AFL/VFL games.
The AFL do not regard them as official matches, so neither do I.


Similarly, Victoria v Dream Team, Hall of Fame game was an Exhibition game and is not included.

Might I suggest an 'Others' section for each team? Containing jumpers worn in exhibitions, trial matches, maybe unreleased jumpers. Because I believe all jumpers worn and/or produced by an AFL Club have a spot under a site called "footyjumpers" after all that's what they are. Only suggesting ;)
 
Does anyone know any way to decipher when this strip was worn?

I always had a vague memory of this but could never find a photo. What's curious about this is the fact the shorts are that old something-Sports brand but the jumper is Reebok. Pre-season?

I do recall seeing Freo wear that jumper when they kicked one goal against the crows a few years back.
 
I wasn't asking about the jumper, we wore it every second week for about five years! More so the strip – the fact there were purple shorts with it.

As I mentioned to you – it was Freo's debut of the white clash jumper, used as a pre-season jumper in 2005. Freo were the designated home team so they wore purple shorts, West Coast wore the royal wings with white shorts.
