Is there even a set of Bars jumpers made up for this year?

I'd say so. They had a set ready to go last season, and from what I've read between the lines a set is ready to go for when the AFL says yes.

the silence is deafening

No Coles logo in the centre circle at all tonight, can't remember if this was a thing last year at the SCG or not.

I’m pretty sure they don’t do it at the SCG or Gabba due to the cricket pitches.

This isn't a SANFL thread...

Good chat guys, just ignore my reply next time

Sorry Heardy - I hope you're right. Anyway, this isn't a SANFL thread so we'd better not talk about it anymore

Now I remember virtual logos being used last year, weird they weren't last night.

Ollie Henry is wearing an away guernsey today (KFC on front) while everyone else is wearing a home.

I suspect the club kit person didn’t even tell the difference given how similar the logos are with all the red

Will the AFL impose a fine on the club? Would they even notice?

 

[Andonis1997]

Adelaide wearing red away just feels right.

Is Port v Hawthorn the first time a match has featured two clubs with a white number panel?

Doubt it. Collingwood, Adelaide, Fremantle have all had number panels at one point

 

[Heardy_101]

Why the hell does Hawthorn have a number panel?

Talk about adding to the list of unnecessary shit...

 

[parano1a]

Why the hell are the umpires in teal at a Port Adelaide game? Surely there are other colours which aren't part of either team's strip? Red or pink would be fine...

 

[MKMatty]

Are Ports numbers iron on? Why are they shiny like that?

 

[budge27]

Powell Pepper doesn’t have the KFC sponsor on the back of his jumper above his number - I think everyone else does though.

 

[makri]

Mentioned earlier,Henry in Away jumper during the first half, swapped it at half time.

Gold jumper on any team means the umpires go to baby blue. And Port has so little teal in its home jumper that it wasn't even close to an issue.

Is Port v Hawthorn the first time a match has featured two clubs with a white number panel?

May 23, 1903.
Fitzroy v Collingwood
Both teams wore White number panels with numbers on them.

 

[Mero]

Are Ports numbers iron on? Why are they shiny like that?

My guess is they used last year's retail jumpers, then ironed on the Ebert tribute and the numbers.

 

[Mero]

It's the Peter Hudson Legends jumper
The pin striping and White number panel are supposed to remember the Hawthorn jumper of his era.

Did the Hawks even have a panel when they had the V jumper?
