Not a clash, but I can't see why Port Adelaide can't have had an all-black back with a white number when they play Geelong in their mostly white stuff with white shorts

Problem would be solved if Collingwood just wore red or pink shorts since there’s no reason to be precious about it.No they don't. There has been no clash between these teams for the past 15 years, why are Geelong all of a sudden precious about shorts colour?
Perhaps because the EPL system including the lower 3 Divisions consists of 92 clubs. There are over 900 clubs across Europe which could be possible opponents in Champions League. Of course 2nd and 3rd strips are needed.
The AFL has 18 teams. Why do people keep wanting to compare the two?
Like this?Coolingwood need an all black jumper with tiny stripes. Just do it you campaigners.
You missed the first part.No they don't. There has been no clash between these teams for the past 15 years, why are Geelong all of a sudden precious about shorts colour?

Yep, their number panel is stupid and causes problems but apparently everyone else should be avoiding it, even when they’re the away team...
fwiw, collingwoods white top, black shorts is one of my all time favourite looks.
You missed the first part.
"And if Geelong are allowed in dark shorts then..."
IF they are allowed to wear navy shorts with the white top THEN Collingwood need a kit that is neither majority black or white, to contrast with both the white tops and the navy shorts.
Not saying they SHOULD be allowed to but IF they were.
My full post has a very different meaning to only half of it.
I get that. I even bloody agreed with that.No it’s simple, teams have a light kit and dark kit, if you wear your light kit at home you wear white or light coloured shorts, not dark shorts. You want to wear your dark kit away against a light club then you wear your dark shorts.
Geelongs home kit should be white shorts. Which they do 90% of the time. It’s only when they want to sook about something they don’t.
Collingwood’s away jumper with black shorts is an awesome look, but you don’t see it because it would create unnecessary clashes
If teams just use common sense it can all be avoided. Collingwood wear their away jumper against Carlton so they can wear their traditional jumper, doesn’t matter who’s home or away.
The quicker people get out of the stupid dark home, light away mentality the better everything will be
They have one. They wore it against West Coast (and in most away games this season actually). It's predominantly white.Collingwood needs a clash! simple! they arent any more special then any of the other clubs

No. Geelong's main colour is WHITE. So we wear our dark strip against them.and does that work against geelong with white shorts? Vs Geelong with blue shorts?

And yet when Port wear a grey and white strip apparently it's not good enough.No. Geelong's main colour is WHITE. So we wear our dark strip against them.

exactly so it isnt a proper clash strip. they need something, like every club has, out of the ordinary, break in case of emergency strip. one that eddie has refused to do all these years.
ess all red, port silver, rich all yellow etc etc etc! its not hard. and they shouldnt just be able to refuse to do it anymore
even if they wore this with white shorts it would be an eyesore against geelong with blue shorts.View attachment 979629
Like this maybe? Of course Eddie wouldn't allow this, it was worn in olden days under the presidency of {checks notes} Eddie McGuire.
