Seeing it in action, what did you think of it?
Personally, I can't see how the Home jumper with White shorts looks that much like Essendon.
But it wasn't that bad.

It's a winning design.
Seriously I prefer the preseason jumper with the claws .
I liked it. Made us look fast. hang on, I meant essendon made us look fast.
i can live with it. personally i prefered the black sash on yellow, but meh. whatever.
There having a end of season sale mate thats why there cheap up to 50% off for members.That they're $70 tells me they're likely to be replaced next year by something else.
That jumper sucks. If they're going to wear a clash jumper, where one with a different design. All these bloody teams who dangle their toes in the water. Either have a proper distinctive clash guernsey or none at all.
The result flattered the uniform.
There's a quandary when it comes to the Tigers and our colours. Given the pride we take in yellow and black, which we mention with gusto in the song, it is most likely to cause controversy with supporters if we embraced any other colours.
My suggestion for when we play Essendon, where the sash and black are the only main designs in common is horizontal stripes like the old Castleford strip linked below:

At least the design looks aggressive and not like something an NBL team might warm up in.
Pittsburgh Penguins in the early '90s had an interesting away strip which utilised our colours well too.
For those who wouldn't mind a distinctive clash strip, to be worn only once or twice a year, why doesn't the marketing department add green, a colour underused in the AFL. It goes well with black and yellow. They might have a legitimate excuse for selling more merchandise then.
And no, I don't want to alter the traditional colours of the jumper for those about to scream blue, or rather, green murder.
