The big talk point will be what Collingwood wear.

Being the away team I expect us to be in the white jumper. We were in around 3 last year.

Why? Collingwood in white/white.

It's the Collingwood home games that are the issue when Carlton still wear a dark jumper.

I wouldn't rule it out.

I wouldn't rule it out.

Theyve gone to the effort to replace the BLK logo with Puma... but surely they will in clash this week v Freo

Richmond hasn't worn their home jumper away to Freo since 2013...

Would love to see the Cats in home shorts this week just to * with everyone.

Saw that this morning, checked again and it’s been updated. Confirmed we’ll be in yellow.

Have you seen our clash for 2019, anything to give it one run this year

 

[Boyohboywowwee]

I know it won’t happen but I would love to see Essendon run out in white shorts tonight v Sydney, IMO it would look great, just like the 96 prelim

Given they can wear white shorts vs a team with more white than Sydney, I wouldn't be shocked anymore!

Yeah nah

 

[Gibbsy]

White shorts on the Dons aren’t the answer, but it lacked contrast tonight.

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

Swans in their clash with red shorts would’ve done the job and looked a treat.

Not sure if serious...

Red and white vs black is just about the epitome of contrast.

Why would I lie. There was a lot of common red.

 

[hitthepost]

Why would I lie. There was a lot of common red.

But 90% of it was on one team.

That's like saying there's a lot of common white and navy in a Carlton vs Geelong game - but one team is 90% white and the other 95% navy.

We can agree to disagree; I just think under the lights both teams appeared “dark” and there wasn’t a great deal of contrast. I’m not saying it was a clash. It’s in the middle on the clash/contrast scale.
