HaHaHa! Yes let's check the Betfair odds....It is only the practise matches so i am not going to get fired up about the Clash strips yet.

BUT I WILL!!! Last weeks game with Essendon & St.k was just outrageous as far as this on going debate goes.

The AFL have no strategy with this issue.

After thsoe games there really isnt a debate any more..Its a total farce. Any words from Fortress-Vlad must simply be allowed to run down the drain,

Clash jumpers must be white.. but jumpers are black,,,, or blue or a handful of other colours but we cant have red...but...but....but.

Were just wasting our breath

Personally i would like to send "Rampaging" Roy Slaven down to see Vlad & co.

Roy would sort them out within minutes, wouldn't hear another peep out of 'em all season (until Brownlow Night!!)

I thought we were going to wear the clash strip in each game, like we do in most/all pre-season comps.

Pretty sure the clash strip is also our NAB cup/challenge strip.

It means we have to see more of it but it also means more exposure and therefore more $$$ in jumper sales. It's a necessary sacrifice I think.

If that is the case (and I vaguely now recall this might be the case), then my opinions held within the Demons v Bombers thread on this very issue shall be superseded.

I remember reading somewhere when I was trying to find out what was going on with the pink yolk that we would be wearing the clash strip for the NAB cup. I guess they're trying to get us used to it as quickly as possible.

I also vaguely recall the AFL last year requiring Essendon to produce a clash jumper for the 2011 season (that wasn't the widened sash). Haven't seen a clash jumper yet, nor heard a peep out of the AFL. If they get away with out having one for another season then the AFL is a farce.

Surely for Essendon it's quite easy to just reverse the colours?

Doesn't look great, but no clash jumper does.

It's good enough.

I agree, but I'm sure I read somewhere that in the requirements of a clash strip there has to be an large amount of white?? Could be wrong

I'm not fussed at all to be wearing the clash strip. I am that the AFL can't see or rather care about the clashing umpy strip.

Has turned anything they (Vladland) say in this regard to a nonsense.that is all

I've thought the same for a while - for all teams. Makes it a lot easier and gets rid of all the stupid white jumpers! Fair enough for the likes of sydney, freo, carlton, collingwood etc where their secondary colour is white, but would like to see our away strip being red again. Anyway, all been done to death already!

You are right Demonator done to death and I don,t mind the latest white away strip.

You never know it might be red one day and not pink.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
