nobody can fathom the afl's clash strip policies

I don't expect us to wear the red in any game this year. Seems like its just money maker. If you can't wear it against one of the darkest team in the comp you got no chance.

Prob wear it vs the Suns...

Ha ha

This must be the most boring subject on Demonland pages are spent every year discussing a subject that won't change.

The AFL want predominately white strip.

End of story.

The best we can do is get the best predominately white strip and get on with winning games.

End of rant.

New white strip is great, having seen it first hand in the Freo game. Also really liked last years, helps that we won all our games wearing it.

So the design of the away strips is great. And most agree which is awesome. Any chance we can now get a set of jerseys that actually fit our players?

Really don't get how you don't understand the AFL stance on this pretty simple

  • Meth Coast have a white alternate jumper, so against us at the G last year they wore their blue alternate against us to avoid a clash
  • We were told we could not wear red for the last few years because it is a dark jumper
  • Fremantle have purple which is deemed a dark jumper
  • We play Fremantle in Perth and can't wear red because it is dark
  • We play Meth Coast in Perth we can't wear red because it is dark and would clearly clash with the blue and gold of the Meth Coast jumper
  • Gold Coast have white as an alternative, so when Gold Coast play against Freo or Meth Coast in Perth they naturally are allowed to wear their home jumper (red) with red shorts and socks because for some reason their red is not dark
  • Carlton play Freo in Perth and have to change to white because obviously navy blue is a dark colour
  • Essendon play Freo in Perth and don't change their jumper, not sure what the reason is eg is their red not dark or in their wisdom have the AFL deemed the Essendon black is not really dark
  • And then we have the laughable situation last season in the elimination final with Port vs Richmond when the home side had to change because the Tigers alternative was to close to the Port home jumper

There you go AFL logic with clash jumpers in all their wisdom

The thing is that AFL don't have to use logic PSD because they are the AFL

the afl (that is the management group) is fast losing credibility in many areas including transparency and governance

od is right, logic is something for the afl to only consider when it suits them (usually when it is profitable)

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH MY EYEBALLS!

I am still mystified as to why people have a problem with the Collingwood alternate jumper. It is primarily white, while the main jumper is primarily black. Where is the problem...???

Now that we have 2 clash jumpers, I reckon we should cease wearing the traditional strip in all away games except against Sydney who have too much red and white in their jumper:

Red:

Carlton

Collingwood

Geelong

North Melbourne

Fremantle

Port Adelaide

West Coast

Richmond

White:

Adelaide

Brisbane

Essendon

Hawthorn

GWS

GC

St Kilda

Bulldogs

We should wear the traditional navy blue jumper with red v neck and refuse to wear anything else just like the filth refuse to change their jumper. Just another example of how weak willed MFC has become.

That it is a Collingwood jumper in either case? :blink::blink:

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
