Heritage round - this year, let's do it properly

[Mofra]

Bay,

We all know that football is just not enough without special rounds that pay homage to everything from social causes to the devastating effects of STDs.

The one glaring instance is Heritage round where we dip our hat to players of yore by wearing bastardised versions of old uniforms:

Pictured: Hawthorn's best ever jumper

The obvious problem is that it doesn't go far enough. Where are the knee length shorts? Caps? Knee-high socks?

Pictured: Geelong's current list as young men

Enough! AFL house needs to get things in order and give us a real heritage round - including leather boots (not shoes). What say you?

It would be too confusing. Every jumper would be black, white and grey.

But we have the opportunity to go back to our original names too.

Hawthorn Mayblooms
Footscray Prince Imperials
Essendon Blood Stained... um... "Naggers"

I have no issue with other teams wearing those colours.

No, not you Port Adelaide.

Eddie would hit social media though

Thank god. I was uncertain on his stance on this.

There's no heritage round until Port get to wear the prison bars #nevertearusapart

I have no qualms with their magenta prison bars. I think it’ll be quite fetching.

This should be what Geelong wears

Cause we all know most of their players and supporters can't find their Missus' G-Spot.

That's fine if magenta was a real colour, but I see your point.

It’s kinda apt given Port’s AFL incarnation aren’t really a real club…

What else for Collingwood ?

No, not you Port Adelaide.

Port can wear their other heritage jumper

Most Collingwood fans TV sets comes in 256 colours shades of grey.

Bring back the racism and misogyny of the 19th century to be as authentic as possible.
