This one will probably go straight to the vault, and end up in the Hawk Heritage Museum's gift shop, where it will be sold as a "landmark historical item", and then be bought by someone like me for the express purpose of hanging around my opposition team supporting mates just to piss them off while we're all seen together in public...

Because that's exactly what I did with my 1995 Blue Diamond Hawk pre season jumper...the funny bit being the looks of revulsion as we walked through Metricon, with the odd "knowing nod accompanied by smirk" from the odd 30-something Hawk fan...
 
What even is the design ?
Well, they're Vees, celebrating Hawthorn's rich heritage.
Only they're not Vees.
They're gradient coloured shapes, that are cut off anywhere that would make them into an actual Vee.
And they're not in club colours, but in what I call an American Gold.
Than background is White that fades to Gold, each of the little drips that form a yoke are made up of Gold fading to Brown.
Then there's the shapes that are arranged to trick the eye into thinking they're in some sort of Vee shape, and they're combination of Brown fading to Gold, Gold fading to Brown, and Gold fading to White.
 
I feel like this is the best example of what's wrong with the West Coast tri-panel. Also are the sides cut differently this year? The curve makes it messier, and leaves more yellow on one side:

It's a navy and yellow guernsey. Just don't try to wear colours that clash with navy or yellow and you won't have any problems :)


The side-panel is disgusting though.

What does that leave though?

Blue, black, white, yellow all definitely out. It basically leaves you with either going for a predominately red jumper, or bringing in something like powder blue, cyan, or green. Just an open invitation for some especially ugly clash jumper designs.

All stupid, because the tri panel is an unnecessary design given what's hanging in the WCE closet

I don't know what you're saying but yes

WC played Carlton a year or two back, and wore their home jumper with a yellow stripe on the RH side. I thought awesome, they've finally realised that under the shithouse Subiaco lighting on tv against a dark team (Carlton, Richmond, etc), it's a bloody hard game to watch when they're kicking left to right...but no, it was just a promo jumper...

Yes, it leaves a few clubs in a pickle. White works fine - look at WCE vs Adel, Coll, Frem, Geel... - or maybe, just for that one game, you wear a jumper of one block colour that doesn't clash with the WCE tri-panel.

White is no good, thanks to the tri panel two thirds of the front of the jumper, and a fair chunk of the back is yellow/white

It's why both white and dark designs always look only workable against it from certain angles.

Just get rid of it
