How could would peril (with royal shorts) look against Freo's navy purple?

White sucks, for either team.
Only chance would be yellow with white shorts I reckon. Problem is we don't have a yellow guernsey, except the indigenous one. Unless the club is way ahead of us, and already one designed, and ready to go incase of the derby GF. I'm not holding my breath. We'll be in white if it's a derby GF..............and if we win, I actually won't care.

Navy wings on the current template will look schmick, especially with no white outline.

It definitely doesn't beat royal/gold wings but it's an adequate compromise to the tripanel which is best described as a cluster****.
Apart from the gap in the wings due to the sidepanel. New template needs to be implemented or Puma need to get their head around printing gold on the top of the sidepanel to create continuous wings. At present its as bad as Adelaide's broken hoops.

Everyone marvel at my awesome paint skills, navy will look good I reckon.
I don't think navy will look bad. It's a compromise I'm happy to have. I hate how they stuck white on us at the same time though, double blow.

Royal and gold are always the best combination, but navy will look good, especially at night.

I'm giving the club every opportunity to come through this year but if they don't then I will be very sour.
Surely they haven't missed anymore deadlines this time around. If Stocks said that he'd had samples, and was asking for adjustments etc, then that suggests it too far advanced to not happen, otherwise, why would they bother with that sort of stuff.

The lack of talk from the club must be to do with not effecting current jumper sales, it's the only reason I can think of for not telling us sooner.

**** me. Imagine watching the 2015 premiership video in 30 years time and seeing us run around in the white clash.
Teams wearing white/clash jumpers in GF's haven't had a good record, let's hope for some common sense.

Getting way ahead of myself, but if it was Eagles Hawks, would we wear full royal, and them yellow with brown stripes and white shorts, or would they wear their full home strip??

There should be no issue with Freo in all purple and the Eagles in royal with white shorts. There's precedent with the Adelaide and Carlton home games to suggest a similar match-up against Freo would work just fine.

White jumpers in derbies are about money making and nothing more; look at the Showdown - they never wear them there.
