They look just like their red ones got too many washes.
What was wrong with the old pink-vee jumper, or an inverse - navy vee on a fully pink jumper, or a pinkback jumper?

They only do that every 4 years timing with the big pink lady on the center of the G

They did it 2014-18...and then yes 4 years before that in 2010. The jumper at least.

Bloods looked great in all white / red numbers last night. Classic.

I have no words.

Well, none that are main board appropriate anyway.

Tbh it's a pretty great design. I can't think of any other sporting team that's relocated and placated both towns as well as that. It's the old V but with an iconic, obvious landmark chucked in. The fact it kinda looks like a budgie's head is a bonus.

Geelong wearing blue shorts.

For the record, yes Tge VFL was the other way around, but signage and scoreboard has the VFL as Essendon home game

Was there anything special about gws socks yesterday? Lighter grey at the top with some sort of design on it

* I love this board

Was anyone aware the Cats were gonna go with the stencil numbers again for the Country Match?

Any chance someone with sense can get in position of power in the AFL re jumper clashes / shorts? They are going backwards this year after slow gradual improvement over the last decade.

Going by Geelong v Essendon...if Freo wanted to wear purple shorts today would that be allowed?

 

[aCunningPlan]

Are Collingwood going to wear a white jumper with black shorts at some point this season? That is the only possible reason I can see this about face with Geelong.
So far, every game Geelong have been in their home shorts has been perfectly watchable though. Greatest contrast, no...but any clash, no. Play on.

If this is the case then one wonders if North will go back to white jumpers too.

I don't see it happening, I don't trust their board

Odd that Essendon didn't do it, very odd I thought

Great question. My guess is no. Freo would have to mix and match.

Wearing purple shorts today would have been mixing and matching.

Oops, sorry. I had to re-read your post. You were referring to today's game. In my head, I thought you were referring to a Geelong v Freo match-up.

i.e. when Freo travel to GHMBA, will they be made to wear their purple top and white shorts, given that Geelong now get to wear their navy shorts for home games. My guess is that Freo will have to mix and match in that instance.

That and Carlton will look pretty damn messy.

Apparently this year away teams can wear shorts the same colour as the home team's jumper so wondering if that works both ways or just when the colour is white.
