Have your say on the Tiger’s clash strip!

Anyone have any idea what the back of the first design looks like? I would have thought it would have to be yellow with a black number for the AFL to approve it as a clash stip otherwise it is virtually the same as now.
The black sash one (Design 2) would surely take this out.

Thats the common sense approach Harvey and the design I voted for, but unfortunately Design 1 will win because it looks like our original strip.
Whats the point of having a clash jumper if it looks like our original strip? Might aswell go the Essendon way and just make the stripe larger, waste of time.

That was my thinking. I am wondering whether these 2 have been approved by the afl as yet because Design 1 doesn't look like it will really solve any perceived clash issues if it's the same on the back as the front.
By the way, design 2 looks strangely familiar....

Exactly. No use hanging on to the old "tradition" tag, it's just a jumper. Those units sound like frawleywits when they carry on about, "losing their identity", and "it's a symbol of our pride" and all that crap.
No, Fitzroy lost their identity when they lost their club. This is just a change in the jumper which has which will invariably make it easier to spot your own players when watching the footy.
Design 2 for mine although the missus considers me seriously fashion and style challenged. What would she know...this is football!
Design 1 for me. Design 2 has too much yellow.

They should use the second option for all 11 away games. It's a great looking strip.
Just my opinion though.

I prefer No 2 but am concerned what the back will look like if the numbers are white which would look ridiculous against the yellow. They could all run out in leotards for I care, as long as they win.
DESIGN 2 already in operation in country football. Worn by North Gambier in the Western Border league. Not a particulalrly attractive look when wearing white shorts, which is what we will be wearing when that jumper is being worn. Need to consider the whole package....yellow jumper - white shorts. Not for me boys and girls. The North Gambier jumper design draws all sorts of derogatory comments and cheap shots...something we could do without. Myself, would have preferred yellow and black stripes, either vertical (preferred or horizontal), or perhaps incorporating some white into the jersey.That being said, I find no real trouble distinguishing between the Tigers and Bombers jerseys when we play.

So who do we apparently clash with before I make a choice?
