Can’t tell if you’re being serious or not?… I think it’s pretty obvious that a team can wear red shorts vs a team wearing blue

So Hawthorn, GWS, Richmond, Essendon don’t have blue, why can’t both teams wear home?

 

[Zoops]

So Hawthorn, GWS, Richmond, Essendon don’t have blue, why can’t both teams wear home?

Each of the clubs you've mentioned have what can be considered darker coloured shorts. Brown, charcoal and black are all dark and don't provide adequate contrast against navy blue. Tonight, red is a lighter colour in the context of the combination, red and royal blue, and thus provides an adequate contrast.

So applying this theory to round 1, why wasn’t the bulldogs in a clash uniform?

Both in dark jumpers and both blue, why isn’t clash enforced?

Jumpers are clearly more dominating in uniform than shorts.

If the AFL were consistent they would have been.

I guess that’s my whole problem hear.

Let all these other things through but Navy Blue shorts are evil.

 

[MKMatty]

Also royal blue is a bit of an anomaly in that it can appear as both a light and dark colour depending on the match up.

IE- It is considered dark vs Red, however is considered light vs Black/Brown/Navy

Just noticed it says Sydney on the back of the Neck for the South jumper, not SMFC

My disappointment is immeasurable and my weekend is ruined.

 

[CollarJazzKnee]

I am sorry, but There is plenty of clubs we could both wear home shorts and not be an issue, this is double standards pure and simple

Totally agree- ridiculous Geelong and north can’t wear home shorts but the “big 4” don’t even wear clash jumpers. Collingwood v Carlton is especially awful.

Who actually thinks this looks good tho

 

[parano1a]

Collingwood wear its clash jumper for away games whenever required (e.g. Round 1 v St Kilda)

It looks like it says Sydney on the collar, and the sponsor is under that.

But why?

Just... Why?

But why?

They have to wear it once, so they thought “we’ll wear it in Brisbane where not to many north fans can boo it”

Could have worn it at home, by that logic

Sorry I should’ve added “against each other”.

I guess it makes sense Harbour Bridge and SMFC on the home, Red V(For Victoria) and Sydney on the away.

I wonder the reaction if Brisbane did the FFC monogram on the away and just had the word Brisbane on the neck?

Putrid!
Cartoon logos went out like 10 years ago

Great eye. To me it looks the same font as on the Sydney logo + EST. 1874 on the inside neck.

Fremantle aren’t allowed to wear purple guernsey with white shorts, and will be in all white for the derby.

 

[Freshwater]

Bulldogs v Swans on Thursday night was BigFooty gold. Both in classic designs, with full home kits and a perfect contrast in colour and shade. Awesome b
