[TY24]

Why do they let fans in and stick them up the top level??

To keep them as far away from the players as possible

COMMON SENSE HAS PREVAILED

Why is everyone shocked the cats are in white shorts tonight?

Geelong used white shorts against the Blues last year, even though it was indigenous jumper.

Rough calling an indigenous jumper a homer.
They can be busy, but not a 'homer'

No definitely don't get me wrong, great design, great indigenous art, love it.
Just thought it was funny because of the multiple design elements (Vee + stripes) which is what a "Homer" relates to I thought.

Because last year they were wearing their precious Blue shorts in all home games last year including THAT final. The Indigenous jumper was an anomaly and for that no one is really counting that game.

Why do the Crows always wear their clash kit against the Suns on the road yet they wear their home kit against Sydney when they're the away team?

The red and yellow being shared colours, apparently. Gold Coast always wear their clash kit in Adelaide

GC blue clash would clash even more with Adelaide home than just their normal red surely lmao

Oh s**t they've changed their away guernsey, ahh. I meant the white guernsey. They wore their full red against the Crows last year

 

[BringBackTheAnchor]

I’ve noticed Rory lobbs number 37 on the back of the jumper is smaller than the rest of the team
Anyone know what’s up with this

 

[El_Scorcho]

I didn't know about this until they ran out but Port have added a number panel to their silver clash kit.

Good. The numbers were hard to read sometimes.

Now all they need to do is add teal to the V.

 

[The Victorian]

Why is MG still heat pressed??? Surely they would have had enough time to get it sublimated!! They did it in under a week for the Elimination Final in 2014!

Would you remove the black or the white to make way for the teal? Adding a 3rd V changes the design and it seems they want the jumpers to be as similar in design as possible.

They could just copy what Western Suburbs Magpies did in the 7s in 1996

That's changing the design of a single-colour front with two Vs...

 

[ULTIMATE_WARRIOR]

It would seem as if some of the Port Adelaide players shorts have the sponsor Thrifty enlarged and placed on the whole side of the right leg

 

[juddy_Like]

These Port shorts look horrendous.

One ugly sponsor, for sure:

I'd made it so it matches the BiB.

Precious blue shorts?

Its our home uniform with over 100 years of history, there are times we need to wear white shorts in home games like Saturday night, but as with all games its the away teams job to work with us not the other way around.

As I said plenty of times last year, half the issues everyone keeps bringing up here are fixed if the AFL does what they do with Sydney and Gold Coast and have neither team in White Shorts.

I just get frustrated we are expected to wear white shorts when we shouldn't.

And for the record, YES, all games against Carlton, North and Collingwood should see the Cats in White shorts.

Then it loses the black or white
For me, the more often Port can use black next to white, the better

Its about the best looking match-up for the game.

And sorry, but that involves the Cats being in white shorts for most of their games be it home or away. You get to wear your home jumper, and it's still your home game. White shorts don't take that away (mind you, try telling Norf that). Not only that but your the only club at the moment that gets to wear it's home jumper in all 22 of its H&A games plus whatever finals you make.

A team with a mostly white jumper wearing dark shorts vs a team with a dark or black jumper wearing white shorts it's not the best look for the modern game and we need to move past that.

Last year was absolutely ridiculous and a backwards step after several years of the Cats wearing white shorts in most of their games and again especially the final against Collingwood. Pretty sure there was a game against Norf that was an eyesore as well.

Unless the AFL takes a EPL soccer approach - which won't happen because try telling Eddie he has to make a jumper that's not black and white stripes.

Well played my good sir!

In their intra-club match, #15 Langdon and #29 Hunt wore what look like black longies under their red-back guernseys:
