Never worn a jumper other than the prison-bar stripes eh ? The site footyjumpers.com discloses they played Swan Districts(WAFL) in a 1982 inter-club Escort Cup match in a all white jumper with black yoke. Only bothering to mention this because Eddie and co [censored] this myth to death and refuse to submit a REAL away strip and just tinker with stripe widths.

Do you feel better now? You should have posted this on a Collingwood forum, then reported the results. Now THAT would be an interesting thread.

Now while you're smashing conspiracy theories tell us who shot JFK and if Warren Jones really had W tattoed on his buttocks.

They wore the same thing in a preseason game in the late nineties or early 2000s. Their justification, I think, was always that it wasn't a real game...

What I still struggle with is the AFL who have this major thing about white clash strips allowed Collingwood to create a number of clashes by changing their guernsey from their traditional white back/black numbers to a predominantly black guernsey around 2001. Up until that time the only conceivable clash was with Nth Melbourne on black and white TV. Now they clash with basically any team with a predominantly black jumper. Collingwood just need to wear their traditional guernsey (the one which is now their clash jumper) at all games except when they play North (then they can wear the dark one they wore yesterday)and maybe Geelong then they will not be involved in any clashes of strip.
