Even though its our home game do you think we should have worn our away strip!

And we should NOT have done so.

The whole point of an away strip is that the AWAY team wears it so as not to clash with the traditional strip of the home team.

yeah, it seemed as though we were making a comprimise to Essendon because their away strip could clash with out home strip.

this is wear the yellow away strip should be implented like in the world game. who cares if it's yellow! just put it on, play the game and there is no colour clash. problem solved.

also, if we do happen to make the grand final (fingers crossed), i like to see us wearing the traditional strip. was annoyed when andrew plympton opted for the "tombstone" in '97.

Uh noooo....unlike that borefest called the "worldgame" jumpers actually mean something and are not to be treated lightly. I dont think anything from the "worldgame" would benefit sport like AFL.

Not if they were fairly decided to be the away team.

the game in the GC wasnt anyones 'home' game... so why bother about it.

clash guernseys are in, and theyre here to stay, and sure clubs like the essenscum and the Club get away with waht they want, but if we are to grow as a comp, then away strips, clash strips, have to be considered.
