Gold shorts would look great on the Hawks away rather than white.

I had a crack at making an away/clash kit for the Hawks. I really like Hawthorns V jumpers with the monogram, I made it with Gold shorts.

Im pretty certain that matching coloured shorts will always look better than just white shorts for no reason. If white isnt the dominant colour of the top then there should be no white in the shorts

Suns new away kit continuing the fine AFL tradition of dark / light combos, should be good.

The blue is at least very different from the red version. But it still has a bunch of stupid flaws. Its a mostly dark blue uniform including side panels but from straight on its straight yellow. Which still somewhat clashes with red and orange teams. So its going to look different from different angles and still not properly provide contrast.
If going an all red main jumper they should have just followed suit with a straight blue and a straight yellow version

Better than first thought actually might follow AFLW lead and not have white shorts

Its early and im underslept but who could they possibly clash with if implemented correctly.
They wear away v Sydney and Brisbane, maybe saints/essendon?
I cant picture any real clashes in my head with the exception of possibly GWS (which is an issue for alot of teams)

The yellow front will clash with the giants and partially Sydney/Brisbane. All of which would have been solved by it being a blue front with yellow highlights (not a solid yellow front).
At least the shorts match

Sydney is white and red... Thats a big stretch to me.
Brisbane probably fair although i think the WHOLE kit and the blue being very dark distinguishes it.
GWS clash with nearly everyone at this point, short of an all white kit (which im ALL for) i think this is pushing to find clashes that arent really there

It's such a pale yellow that I think it will be fine. Probably barely enters the top 20 of matchups that need solving.

If they wear their home jumper with white shorts, this is a cracking alternate kit
Looks great

They had it right before using a warm coloured home uniform and a cool coloured blue clash uniform, but now they're using 2 warm coloured uniforms, which makes no sense, it's going to clash with GWS, we all saw that in the semi-final Lions vs GWS, not sure why The AFL approves that.

North Melbourne's best guernsey ever, should have never stopped using it.

Maybe the problem is gws?
Every team should have a warm-dark, warm-light, cool-dark & cool-light uniform then can use an all white for clashes and the away team should never be in white shorts except where they have majority white in their uniform because we all like teams to be in solid colour block pyjamas. If course, this would obviously clash with the umpires and runners - stupid AFL can't get anything right.
yes, we'll continue to wear home shorts with our home kit I'd think.
Pretty obvious we will wear the centenary kit against them I would have thought. Worn an all blue training kit against them the last 3 years.
