Wouldn't be surprised if through a mess up with kit WCE end up going over with only white shorts.

Is this the first time Fremantle will wear full home (full purple) at the MCG?

I’m guessing they will as the ‘home‘ team.

Yes. Carlton have confirmed they will be in white.

Edit: Actually they wore all purple in the 2012 Elimination Final v Geelong at the MCG.

Yeah they wore full purple in MCG finals against Geelong in 2010 (anchor) and 2012 (chevrons).

Gold Coast must feel pretty unlucky. Both occasions they've worn their Indigenous jumper have been home games shifted to other venues. Think we might see them pull it out one more time this year for a game at Metricon.

Ah thanks, I was at both games. Just goes to show what I remember.

And both times we’ve won

Guessing tonight's match up was Geelong all white and Essendon in their usual get up?

 

[ashley12]

It was in both VFL and AFL and was fantastic.

Melbourne in their Indigenous jumper, GWS in orange clash

 

[parano1a]

Two of the Demons players are wearing a long sleeved version of the indigenous jumper. No patterns on the arms though.

 

[Speck]

It isn't a clash, but not a big fan of the front of Melbourne's jumper being so red against GWS' orange.

Adelaide in indigenous strip with navy shorts, Brisbane in Fitzroy Red with white shorts

Its quite intersting, this. This is the first time the Lions have worn their red jumper against Adelaide, which I assume has been allowed due to the Crows wearing their Indigenous which has almost no red.

I still expected Brisbane to be in white even with us wearing the Indigenous jumper, because quite often when a home team is wearing a special jumper, we still see the away team wearing whatever they would usually wear, even if their home (or away) jumper no longer clashes.

For this to occur, either the AFL have just decided the red jumper is fine to wear against the Crows going forward, or they actually had the foresight to see the Crows would have a different jumper to normal which would allow the Lions to wear their preferred away jumper.

Lachlan Bramble, number 16 for Hawthorn, has heat pressed numbers

Both were sleeveless jumpers over standard long sleeved jumpers

 

[makri]

Not sure if it has been mentioned in previous weeks but have noticed that Lachlan Bramble's jumpers have had ironed on numbers.

Fyfe in a longy tonite - can’t recall that happening too often.

This also means the Lions have a 100% win rate vs the Crows in the red kit

Papley & Gulden in the long sleeves gives off 05/06 sydney vs west coast vibes.

The Nike long sleeves look sh1thouse!

 

[Speck]

Wish we had a red jumper for today. Wonder what a mock up of this clash would look like if we reversed the red and white.

How so?

 

[Chuckie357]

How so?

Cuffs if there is any look terrible and the arms are too lose and inconsistent
