Discussion Round 10 and Round 11, 2019 - Photos and Discussion (Indigenous Round)

[Speck]

Pretty sure Geelong was the only team to have an indigenous long sleeve. All the other players this round worse indigenous guernseys over the top of long sleeves.

Ben Long did for us as a replacement jumper.

These all look PI fit to me? Wonder if that 2010 GF is just some replica or a backup guernsey.

Who's the player wearing it? Might be their own jumper from the match (or a teammate who was a similar size)

That would be Taylor Adams who debuted for GWS in 2012, so I don't think it's him

Are Port ok with them wearing China colours?

It's better than Gold Coast's colours.

Does this have a white back? Won't there be a fairly significant clash, or am I missing something?

Looks like the Essendon cancer awareness ones.

Technically it's St Kilda's home game, so it'd be on Port Adelaide to solve the clash. But I'd doubt Port would want to wear their clash jumper given the China game is their baby

If they couldn't force Gold Coast out of their home jumper for a home game they better not be allowed to wear their home jumper in a "clash" game. But ya never know with the AFL!

"For the first time in the club’s history, the Power will wear its Indigenous guernsey in China when it takes on St Kilda in Shanghai on Sunday 2 June."

Edit: So I guess St Kilda will be in full home kit & we'll have white shorts. Should be sufficient contrast gives SK's red on the front & Port's white on the back - not ideal, but workable I'd reckon.

Well that ain't gonna be ideal but the number panel plus white shorts will help.

 

[Timewaster]

Clash will be mitigated by nobody watching ...

 

[Billy ray]

Can someome please post back and front of both jumpers (power and saints)?

 

[Rickee]

I'm happy with the addition of the yellow arm band on the red side, it's subtle but effective.

Looks like black at the back.

I can hear Kochie screaming at St Kilda for adding yellow to their guernsey as we speak

 

[Pappagallo]

Ergh this game will be a dog’s breakfast. Both teams in majority black, Saints have a white panel and the front, we have one on the back and both back sponsors are in a big white box too. Yuck.

I’m sure it’s the primary reason we’re wearing our indigenous guernsey over our regular one, there’s a bit more teal, but it’s not really enough to provide a decent contrast. We should’ve done more to differentiate it.

Playing Hawthorn then St Kilda a teal or white base woulda worked fine in both matches.
Futher example of the AFL not thinking things through.

[Roo Beauty]

North look ******* mint.

AFL seem to be all in on the white jumper/dark shorts vs dark jumper/white shorts again, ala Geelong.

 

[Sparkle]

North looking fantastic in a white based jumper with dark shorts. There's definitely been a quiet policy change in the off-season, first seen with the Cats and now with North.

Collingwood next?

 

[HTT]

100% confirmed the AFL has eased the white jumper-white shorts rule

Most cases it’s fine but the opposition should not be in white shorts.

 

[lionbear]

Don’t think the having Sir Doug Nicholls round over 2 weeks has worked.

Have it the one week and let the 9 away teams wear their jumper in a home fixture they want too.
