Ghastly guernsey.

Has Collingwood intimidated Norf Melbourne into wearing that crud?

North Melbourne are on the way out, sadly they will have no voice in about 2-3 years. Brayshaw's white Knights did not come through. Tick Tick

North made a terrible mistake when it rejected the AFL's relocation offer to the Gold Coast. With such a low natural supporter base, the goodwill of many in taking out an extra membership to help out the Roos was never going to be sustainable for the many years necessary to get the club back on its feet.

Tick, tick indeed!

Yep, you got it. Could have been us in that situation near the end of Gardiners reign. We were an absolute Cot Case 12 months ago.

Fortunately the big jimma & co have turned it around, with still much work to do. I don't see the same future for north. They have managed to fly under the Radar so far this year, but i can't see that lasting too much longer.

What a digrace the AFL are. Well done Collingwood hope your proud.

I've just had about enough of this game from rules to politics. This game has gone to the [censored].

Anyone catch a glimpse of Nth Melbournes banner? $5000 fine maybe? I hate Collingwood.

Banner said something along the lines of....

"This is our night, Let's put up a fight, So in our home games, We can wear our Blue and White"

Not word for word, but that is what I remember..... Noticed it straight away on the telecast.....

Good on 'em...

wicked clash jumper...

why is the home team wearing a clash jumper tho?

AFL.

It also said something along the lines of "It's our Right"

So it should be. The North v Collingwood jumpers scenario is a joke. All the more resaon why Collingwood should have a clash guernsey - and they should wear it at away games. North have bent themselves over with the AFL standing over them. They should fight. The Afl should be tougher on Collingwood all the same.

Why did they wear that top then if they were "fighting to wear their home strip". I'm dead serious when i say that if teams like Collingwood aren't willing to move with the rest of the competition on this issue then they should be made to wear pink netball bibs and if they don't then they forfeit premiership points.

The home team should never have to wear an alternate strip.

Stupid Collingwood refuse to wear something other than the "Prison bars".

I think North Melbourne's home jumper would have done fine V Collingwood, especially since Collingwood have a black back and North have a white back.

It's a disgrace to have to wear a light blue alternate ship for a home game.

It was a problem for viewers on B/W telly when things got a bit muddy at Victoria Park or Arden St but under even artificial light on a pristine surface there is no problem.

My bet is that Collingwood are willing to pay the fine for not wearing a clash jumper, and they're calling North's blush. North can't pay it, so they wear the alternate strip. I don't think it's North giving into the Pies, but rather North being pushed into a corner with no other logical solution.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
