Wondering who wears what in the Grand Final? Check out the Grand Final Policy thread!​

 

[Supercheapgiants]

We know it's not, and it's happened before.

But SOMEONE must wear white shorts apparently, unless your name is Sydney.

Or Gold Coast

Even they may be required to wear white shorts if they play Brisbane next week.

 

[Billy ray]

any word from brisbane officially?

 

[lionbear]

No official word, but the fact Geelong are officially in Navy means its what will happen.

Couple of old Bears supporters wont be happy when Maroon is a viable option.

 

[parano1a]

Lions are in Fitzroy red jumpers with white shorts.

 

[Heardy_101]

Worst option out of the ones available.

 

[Liam Boy]

can brisbane just make blue shorts already?

 

[Red Crow]

Brisbane out makes the Grand Final uniforms pretty straightforward now.

Swans or Pies in full home. Cats in navy shorts v Swans, white shorts v Pies.

 

[Heardy_101]

Hmm, are the Cats superstitious?

Will they see a potential Blue shorts match up with Sydney as a bad omen?

Wouldn't think so, I reckon they'd actually be very happy to wear their proper home shorts tbh.

They've lost as many modern Grand Finals in white shorts (95, 08, 20) as blue shorts (89, 92, 94).

Geelong looking resplendent in the navy
The socks are also predominantly navy with white hoops

Never won a Grand Final in blue shorts. We wore black shorts in '63 and prior. Time to break that hoodoo though.

Some the promotional material is usually a giveaway in regards to uniforms.

I'm seeing a lot of promotions with Geelong on the left with white shorts and Sydney on the right with full home

 

[Heardy_101]

Also, amazingly, this is the first time EVER that Geelong and South Melbourne/Sydney have met in a Grand Final

Can’t remember the last time that happened

seems like there have been many times they could've been in a GF together recently and now we finally have them in one

 

[The_torpedo]

What was the last GF both teams wore full home? (Not counting geelong in home/white)

I did work that out last night actually. Hadn’t considered their previous flags were in the black shorts era.

 

[Red Crow]

2016. Basically only happens when Sydney are in the GF (and likely Gold Coast should they ever make one). 02/03 Lions-Pies and 89 Cats-Hawks a couple of rare non-Swans examples.

2016.

3 different Casey Demons guernseys being worn by the 22 today....

 

[Heardy_101]

SANFL GF today, North Adelaide vs Norwood

North Adelaide in all red doesn't look right

 

[Heardy_101]

And the Umpires are in Pink

 

[Supercheapgiants]

You know, this is still possible...
