Brisbane very rarely wear maroon with white shorts - last time they did was in 2020 and it was to avoid a clash with Sydney.
I think they pretty much certainly will wear the Fitzroy red with white shorts, which is kinda cool in a way but also a bit of a bummer cos Pies home and Bris Maroon with white shorts is the ideal matchup imo.
2002+2003 was both teams in dark shorts - AFL's clash policy is very lacking but the part about dark shorts is clear enough to know that won't happen.

Despite the evidence and historical precedence, I predict Collingwood will be full black, Brisbane will be in white shorts.
Not sure if we see a red guernsey or a maroon one, could go either way.

Has anyone seen the footy record yet?
Usually the front cover is the indicator.

Just came in at my work. Both home jumpers. Also a really really nice cover this year.

Just realised that 2017 had Richmond on the cover in the home jumper, so many this isn't a fool proof as I thought.

Imagine Fitzroy red shorts
There was no VFL Grand Final record which was disappointing
Fitzroy never wore red shorts. They wore royal blue for home games and white away.

Yeah I know but was just thinking it wouldn't look half bad as a Collingwood matchup

Unfortunately this logic doesn't apply. Case in point 1991 and 2015 Grand finals.

Don't forget the gold shorts they had for a bit

You'd think the 2002 and 2003 Grand Finals would've been mentioned as a starting discussion as to why there's zero need for them to wear their Fitzroy jumpers.

Since it was discussed yesterday and I have no where else to direct this grievance, I'm fuming about the GF footy record.
I live in a major regional city, (not a small town for reference).
Every year I buy the Grand Final record on the Monday and spend the week reading it cover to cover. It's a tradition.
Find out today that regional areas aren't receiving it until Thursday.
I asked the offical instagram page about this and the response was laughable.
'Hi there.
Last year we had a bye week before Grand final- this gave time to print and distribute out.
You can also buy them online if you wish to have it delivered.'
Factually incorrect. That's only happened once, and it was in 2021. It's here by Monday every other year.

Nonsensical. If the AFL is set on one side wearing white shorts, it should be Collingwood. They've picked the worst possible matchup out of the three.

The current maroon seems a bit lighter than it was 20 years ago too. And it's going to be a sunny day. Maroon v black would have looked great.
