Alternative strip for 2015?

I still would have kept the red V on the jumper and simply added the MFC monogram. I cannot fathom why were didnt wear the red jumper vs freo? Anyone else? They are all dark purple. No clash

nobody can fathom the afl's clash strip policies

 

there is also the "red" away strip - see post #154 on page 7

Yuuuuk.

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 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)

The fit of the jumpers the other night was horrendous.

here is the comparison (from footyjumpers) for 2014

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH MY EYEBALLS!


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...???

YEP

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:
