Discussion AFL 2023 Finals Series: Photos and Discussion

*White shorts policy is good for the game.
*Geelong look better in white shorts than navy, and probably would've worn them against any other team in the 2022 gf.
*The team that won the higher ranking prelim should get dibs on their entire Grand Final kit.

Are these hot takes?

Not at all, I agree with both takes, but just a change on the team that won the higher ranking prelim, it should be the team that finished higher on the ladder.

That's literally the policy

I actually like this matchup
It's rare, the type of thing you'd only ever see in a Grand Final, jumper matchups like this often become synonymous with the match.

Like our home/white matchup against WCE 2018

Yeah or Hawthorn home vs Freo clash in 2013, which freo chose to wear instead of home with white shorts.

I strongly dislike a lot of things about Mark Knight, especially his premier posters.

I always think that Weg was an impossible act to follow and at the very least he's keeping the tradition alive without messing with it too badly.

The tattoo thing is just weird, how do you tattoo fur?

He butchers it every year...

Nor do I . Maybe something to do with Kevin Murray?

This. **** that guy.

get stuffed, respectfully. When you finish 1st you don't get told what to wear

Like Geelong do?

 

[Commando]

It will most likely be a repeat of last 2 years, both next to each other below the Melbourne logo. Also very sure that they all get painted 1 or 2 days before the game.

Looked much better on the 50m.. heaven forbid Telstra don’t get another logo in

Brisbane's looks like it was done before Knight knew if they were using red or Maroon.

I am sure he will explain the tatoos tomorrow, there will be some meaning behind them. Until I hear that I will resrve judgement on the Lions one.

Collingwoods is A+, That will sell like gold.

Weg was the master at the premiership posters, but when you consider knight had to follow the master he has done a pretty good job. The 2022 one is on my wall and I absolutly love it.

Brisbane's 2001 done by Weg was an impossible act to follow, even by Weg in 2002 and 2003.

The more I look at the Collingwood one, the more i like it, absolute class, you could even see that ending up on a few players ankles if the pies got up.

Based on which end the cheer squad is?

Cant think of the last time the cup was presented at the Ponsford end, but I think it is cheer squad based so a Collingwood win may see that end used this year.

I think the tattoo is a reference to Kevin Murray, I could be wrong.

I think stylistically they are so far apart that the only thing they really have in common is that Knight took over the tradition.

Knight’s style is like a kids book illustrator whereas Weg was capable of sketching bold, timeless mascots.

Don’t mean to shit on anyone that likes them - I still like checking them out every year and there’s a few he’s done that I like. But yeah Weg was just so much better and also Knight is a total flog.
