Carlton need to bring back the light blue
Why? They still wouldn't wear it.
They have a suitable clash jumper.
The AFL and Carlton just need to grow up

This is the worst clash in the league.
Even a swap of shorts would be better, Collingwood have far more white on their jumper than Carlton.

Their current clash would be better than what they're wearing tonight against Collingwood but it's still not great.

Ego. It’s like we will think less of Carlton because they have to humble themselves and wear a clash jumper against Collingwood. But they wear it for many other rivals, even very old rivals too. I actually think less of Carlton for being so stubborn and arrogant. It’s not like it helps them? Since clash jumpers have been a thing in AFL football Carlton have done SFA on the field.

The contrast to the Port Swans game is nuts. One is so clear to pick the difference. The other looks completely crap. Absolute amateur hour in how stupidly inconsistent they are

Honestly, this one is no closer to a resolution. Agree with the majority that tonight is awful.
I’d rather Collingwood always wore their white uniform and Carlton their navy blue, regardless of who the home team is.

Nope. If carlton wear their white clash v port, v freo, v saints then they can bloody well wear it against Richmond, Essendon and Collingwood.
Carlton Essendon and Richmond are ****sticks

That’s as maybe, but for whatever reason these three clubs and/or the AFL refuse to yield. I’m yet to see an official explanation why!

Either someone in the current leadership is massive into "tradition for tradition sake" or they are completely gutless. Not sure which is worse but its terrible leadership either way
Annual reminder that this clash exists because Collingwood changed their 'home' jumper in 2001 at the request of Nike, who wanted to increase their sales.
There is no clash betwern Collingwood's traditional jumper and Carlton's. Collingwood just choose not to wear it.

thankfully Carlton and Essendon have been so shit for so long they haven’t stunk up visually any finals games as the away team
Why does your team wear the clash version v port and freo and saints?
Why not be stubborn there also?
Why dont you wear it v Essendon and v Richmond ?

As always, hoping that Carlton lose by one point after going for a switch in defence in the final minute and inadvertently hitting a Collingwood player on the chest all by himself.
They can. Still wont wear it against big 4 or in a GF should they ever make one

Yep, pies OG jumper did work.
BUT Home team can wear what they want though - that’s their right. Its then up to the league to enforce the rules - especially when you guys actually have a perfectly good clash jumper.
It's so stupid, teams need to get away from tradition and look at the bigger picture. If one of the biggest clubs in world say manchester united can have an alternative strip that isn't their tradition colours then Carlton can wear an alternative strip just a few times a year. Richmond wore an inverted strip in the 2017 gf. Do Richmond supporters care, no they won the gf ending a 37 year drought. All that matters is winning
