If people want to talk about tradition, why aren't more people complaining about Richmond's shade of yellow? It's turned from gold to highlighter yellow this year, under Puma. That itself is a slap in the face to years of tradition. I can't believe Tigers' fans are okay with them wearing it at all, let alone wanting it in a Grand Final. They should petition to wear old wool jumpers.
Fluro and Black!

Any competition that can build competition in 6 years is bullshit. And to pledge long time alleigance is absurb.

Go Tiges or adealaide but lets **** these campaigners trying to manufacture?


And go back to polo Gil and give back the money hey?

I'd argue no clash. Richmonds yellow sash is very yellow, and it is very different to Adelaide.
If the yellow sash was the reason for the clash, then having the yellow jumper with black sash makes it worse.

It's the black vs navy that's the clash.

These days, the navy on jumpers is a lot darker than 20-30 years ago.

I wouldn't care if KB and the media hadn't made a shitstorm outa it.
Yeah, we must follow our AFL leadership like demigods. These executives in AFL House have never made a mistake. eg when Ross Oakley tried to shut down Footscray-not a mistake according to all that follow blindly. These executives I think are a cut above you and me. We should just follow quietly and know that they are all-knowing DemiGods.:rolleyes:

A perfect example is when Melbourne used to have the colours red & navy blue and they played St Kilda red, white and black.
They make Melbourne play in red, white and navy blue against St Kilda red, white and black. It was a vast improvement to the "clash". I will follow blindly my AFL rulers like a sheep as it is a lot easier on everyone.

This is an organisation, after all, that has deemed that red is a "dark colour", much like in 1984 "War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength." The ministry of peace (war) has decreed it so.

Zuckerbergs facebook will outbid Bezos' Amazon and will win the AFL digital streaming rights next time they are up for grabs , as channels 7 , 9 & 10 will not be able to make any money return for what they will be expected to buy them for.



Club colours on jumpers will not be needed for any game during the AFL season anymore as they will be replaced with the facebook (home) white on blue & (away) blue on white "f" , with only the club name allowed above the numbers on the back of the jumpers.

Common sense prevails.
Common sense my arse. Clubs fight all year to make a Grand Final and now two have made it. What they did on the way to the big dance shouldn't be worth a damn. Leave your hat at the door and square off as equals. Mono e mono. The whole idea ladder position means a thing in the championship game is just pathetic IMO.

Minor issue.
Tiges have much bigger things to worry about this week.
The crows and their hot form for 1 thing.
Yep roll over, accept what you're given. The AFL relies on people being placid and controlled, and rolling over.

The least you could do is contact your club and let them know how displeased you are. The most u could do is tip manure outside Vote Yes AFLHouse. I am not genuinely suggesting that btw it is a poor joke.:yum::yum:

It's probably best that the Crows win as there is no way you would want to watch replays of a match in which your club wears a Hollywood sell out Guernsey

Obviously Adelaide deserved the right to wear their home kit, but there would have been nothing wrong with Richmond wearing its home jumper with white shorts.

You go and contact your club. Are they still open this time of year?
Its an irrelevancy. And a distraction.

if the jumper is irrelevant, next you'll be saying is that the choice of club song is irrelevant. Why not play the mouseketeers theme song instead? Sold out to Hollywood glitz

Everything's a distraction but winning. Explains a lot about our society

Why is Jenkins trying to tackle his own player?

If the umpires and people can't see the difference then they have bigger issues.

Instead of using the letter board at a doctors surgery, they show throw this up there then and if you can see 2 different teams then you don't need glasses
