[MWPP]

Hope it's ok that I started this thread early since Thursday night football is back!

I predict we'll see:
-Eagles in full navy vs. Sydney in full red (Bias aside , can't wait for this matchup!!)
-North in full royal vs. WB in clash/white shorts
-Melbourne in full home vs. Freo in full white
-GWS in full home vs. Port in full white
-Carlton in full home vs Gold Coast in full (red) home (this would look amazing , even if Gold Coast in full white might be a little more likely )
-Adelaide in full home v. Essendon home in white shorts (Essendon in full red or red with white shorts would look amazing)
-Collingwood in full home v St Kilda in their crusader/white shorts
-Brisbane in full home v. Richmond in their home with white shorts (Richmond in their clash would look even better )
-Hawthorn in full home v. Geelong in white shorts

Someone's a bit keen!

I've got a feeling Richmond will bring out the clash kit in Brisbane..
And possibly Essendon as well, but I agree with every other team.

The only good thing about having a 5 day break, is that it's such a short wait before we get a chance to redeem ourselves after our loss!!
Also Eagles *all blue* v. Sydney *all red* is one of my all-time favourite match-ups
So much to be excited about
I think Essendon would look great in their clash (especially if paired with red shorts) so I hope you're right!!

Ah true.. I forgot about that.

Yeah exactly!
Well those guernsey combinations provided some great grand finals for us, so that's fair haha.
Yeah, the red should stand out more against the navy and gold rather than the home kit.. We'll see what happens

Nothing beats the eagles' full royal v. swans' full red
But I'm still very excited about the eagles' full navy wings v. swans' full red matchup debut!! (we didn't play them in Perth last year)

If this eventuates, it will be another eye-catching debut matchup!

Easy round of jumper tipping I think. A few I don't agree with but history says it all.

Port have worn both Clash and Home jumper vs GWS just out of intetest

Port have worn both Clash and Home jumper vs GWS just out of intetest

Ooh I didn't know that
Would've thought Black v Charcoal would clash a little
But then again, GWS have a fair amount of orange too ....

With the white panel I can see home and white shorts vs GWS.

GWS are majority orange so a black back would work. Port probably Home/white shorts to contrast

I hope Wet Coat never wear the Peril against Richmond again in melbourne

My eyes are still hurting . Royal would have looked perfect vs our home kit

I reckon we should wear the clash vs brissy

I thought the peril worked well tbh
I agree the Tigers should wear yellow against Brisbane.

Big chunks of black and white to match the big chunk of "black and white" on the chest of GWS? Would be risky.

Here's a little taster...

Bit of a shame a Red Crusader or the faux-candy would have looked so awesome this week.

The problem with GWS is they're dark at the front and light at the back so it's a crap shoot as to what is and isn't a clash.

Would work so much better if they just went with a charcoal back and then just swapped the charcoal and orange to create a clash/away jumper.

Port aren't helping much after adding the number panel either.

 

[Ice-Wolf]

West Coast v Sydney (DS) - Full home both sides
North Melbourne v Western Bulldogs (ES) - Should be North White and Bulldogs Royal but thanks to Norths Royal Shorts obsession will be North Royal Bulldogs White. (Hope they make comment about it in the banner)
Melbourne v Fremantle (MCG) - Melbourne Full Home, Freo White
GWS v Port Adelaide (Canb) - Don't have a clue should be dark vs light but both teams are both dark and light still Port probably in clash, maybe?
Carlton v Gold Coast (ES) - Full Home both sides.
Adelaide v Essendon (AO) - Adelaide Full Home, Essendon in "heritage" although just as likely to be in home with white shorts (wish Essendon would add Red shorts to the heritage so then there would be something actually heritage about it).
Collingwood v St. Kilda (ES) - Collingwood in Black, St Kilda in !Crusader
Brisbane v Richmond (G) - Brisbane in Full Home, Richmond in Home with white shorts, would prefer them in their clash though (we'll maybe if it wasn't so fluro)
Hawthorn v Geelong (MCG) - Full home Hawthorn, Geelong Home with White Shorts (Hawthorn in Brown with Brown Shorts would look better though)

i had both tabs opened and didnt realsie sozz

What jumper even is it?

 

[Bryce_Jersey17]

Kick for the kids shirt

Which is what exactly?

 

[NM_Mitchell]

Which is what exactly?

They're doing a promotion for the good Friday game, kick for the kids for the good Friday appeal. Dunno about Sydney but in Melbourne good Friday always has a massive fundraiser for the children's hospital, so some profits from the game and other stuff happening will go to that.

Never heard of Kick for Kids. Good Friday is more of a day of rest up here, we don't usually have big sports events on from memory. Thanks for that though, that really helps
