This sort of complaint is so petty. It's up there with 'at least he's played AFL!' or 'Ed Sheeran has written number ones... I'd like to see you try!' People are allowed to dislike things so long as there is some thought and explanation behind it.

I don't like the new Puma yellow at all. It's just way too close to neon. I like how Groupie_ has posted a few images of the new Puma gear because his avatar shows the slight difference in yellow, but the way it balances and seems less bright and more... just... yellow. I understand it's yellow and black, not a deep, rich gold, but this isn't yellow to me. It's just way too neon. I kind of like the Reebok shade:

And here's the Nike, which people are going to say it's reminiscent of. I think this is still better:

Also, I like the collar and fit and most everything else of the detailing, but the yellow strip around the collar doesn't do it for me. I like the idea of a very basic, simple collar for some clubs. Sash teams look stronger when everything else is plain. The sash just jumps out more – and these clubs love playing with it as their absolute, undying, total representer. The thin stripe just takes away from the boldness and contrast of the only yellow being the collar.
It was just a mirthful observation SA. No need to take it to heart.

I wish teams would stop caring about wearing coloured shorts at home, North have decided to go with a mainly blue jumper because they kept being told to wear white shorts with their white jumper. Even though their white jumper is great and works fine with white or blue shorts.
 
Dear North,
This jumper appears predominately white from the front. Black base w/ white stripes- imagine how strong and bold your white jumper would have looked with blue stripes. All without bastardizing your traditional jumper
From any other angle it's a predominantly black guernsey.

Black based guernsey with white shorts is Collingwood's worst look. No idea why they do it so often.
