If WC had yellow shorts to wear on the peril then Geelong could wear whatever tf they want and there'd be no issues
Of course there's the whole flimsy white shorts policy too but that's been covered enough

Would mean one mutual major colour instead of 1.5

Not a fan of this jumper. I wish they would look at Essendon to realise that less is more. Anzac Day weekend should be a week to subtly remember the ANZACS, rather than an over commercialised way to make money. I simple nod to the ANZACS would have been better.

WC would look awful with Yellow shorts.

The best ANZAC jumpers were the ones used for ten years from 2005. For any games played on ANZAC Day itself, just put the ANZAC logo on on the chest. Thats honestly all that needs to be done and IMO is the most appropriate way to be respectful and pay tribute.

Fixed for you.....
Only because there was a thread at some point called Rubbery White Shorts lol

EFA. With fully royal socks (yellow tops)
Also Hawthorn gold.
Melbourne looks great on TV. I can’t remember the last time a gradient was pulled off as well as this.

Last time players wearing a s**t gradient jumper got into the showers after a game, that's when.

It provides an effective contrast too. Almost looks like the royal from a distance.

Busy.
The Pies jumper looks fantastic from behind. I actually don’t mind the black trim, my main issue is just the wide middle stripe.

It looks like it’ll be easily distinguishable in play, which is the main thing

I'd suggest they probably missed it at Eddie's insistence.

I love the "Anzac jumper that is conveniently white-based for clash purposes, thanks for the idea Essendon" jumper. With the sole exception of the massive black collar square-thing.
Also good to see the umps found yellow wristbands today.

So they're playing the Suns and decided to make a rising sun the focal point of their jumper?

Does anyone else get the vibe that Collingwood will be moving back to white based jumpers in the next 5 years?
Yep its happening. They can wear one jumper and one jumper only with either black or white shorts.

Simpson for Strawberry
It's possible, and it adds to the theory that Geelong wearing navy shorts at home this year can set a precedent for Collingwood to wear black shorts at home with a white based jumper. I'm guessing North would be welcome back on the bandwagon too but for all we know they might be content with the royal based jumper

Ironically the Suns are seemingly rising at the present moment as well!
