The Clash Strip That Wasn't

Ummmmm!.....................................FMD

[Biffen 12,432]

Can we blame the direct handballs to opponents on this?

Why the White today?

I concur fully DC.

FMD

I would like to have a mainly red strip with a touch of blue.

We could use it against the Blues, Saints, Pies.

Would it be too much to have 2 clash strips?

don't need a clash strip against the aints (nor most so-called mfc clash teams)

[MadAsHell 4,089]

Agree. Clash strip today was stupid.

I don't know what was wrong with our clash strip of 2004???

[Buzzy 939]

I found it confusing at times today.

Fail.

[Deeoldfart 7,820]

Another example of the AFL being too smart by half!

[Forest Demon 4,681]

Yep, they have no idea with this clash strip stuff. It really isn't rocket science.

[PeterJames 46]

It's plain stupid that we have white in our clash strip. The sides we clash with also have white so it just makes it worse! Just invert our normal jumper!

[beelzebub 22,330]

its ludicrous. In the past we had one team with white.... now we have two !! Clever

[RalphiusMaximus 5,993]

There were a few occasions where our backs kicked directly to an open Saint that can only be attributed to mistaken identity. Yet another uniform stuff-up from the almighty AFL.

[Hannibal 5,814]

I couldn't believe that we wore a clash strip that clashed.

I appreciate that we were expected to wear one because it wasn't our home game, but why didn't a Melbourne official say this is ludicrous and that our normal jumper is far more appropriate ? And if they did, why weren't they listened to ?

I'm hating the AFL more and more every day.

[beelzebub 22,330]

If any tweaking was needed it was simply to have the Sainters play in normal jum;er with white shorts and Us in normal gear with Blue shorts. Too simple obviously

[Deestroy All 14,262]

Was ridiculous, I struggled, and like the rest of me, my eyes are perfect.

[titan_uranus 22,775]

What's ridiculous is that this is still an issue.

Get over it, people.

The AFL says our home guernsey clashes with Essendon, and thus we have to have something to wear against them which will solve the problem. More red does not solve that problem. Hence the white.

[censored] off.

Why? Logic too much too handle?

In case you didn't notice, we're talking about today V St Kilda, not Essendon.

Take the above advice.

According to PeterJames, Tall Defence and UTAH, we'd be better served with red. I was commenting on that.

I think they do it for marketing opportunities.

I've always liked the idea of reversing our home strip. Blue V on red, anyone?

[DemonDing 56]

Reverse it or royal blue it.... Simple footy really...

[beelzebub 22,330]

Wish I had a gold coin for every time we've been over this topic.

closes eyes, slaps forehead and whispers under his breath...missed the point.....long exhalation of breath

[Sir Why You Little 34,937]

I am still O/S so didn't see the game.

We wore a clash jumper against St.K again??

Hahahaha....Why...?

[titan_uranus 22,775]

Points to following people saying we should wear red, slaps forehead, and whispers under his breath...did not miss point, but in fact was totally on topic, given there are still people who don't understand the source of the white.
