Red and black hoops vs charcoal

Can't. ****ing. Wait.
Saints as the “home” team too, can’t imagine the Giants rocking the NS with white shorts though. Doesn’t really make a ton of sense. Actually reckon the matchup would be passable with GWS rocking full charcoal and the Saints wearing the hoops with white shorts. Will be an interesting one to say the least.
 
I'm not 100% confident with this retro jumper just yet but I should get a confirmation soon. An interesting theory someone told me about the wrong logo being on the jumper is that Collingwood are distancing themselves from the Australia flag logo. For those living in the city, would this be a likely thing they would wanna do?
Why would they need to distance themselves from that logo ?

The retro was promoted with white shorts so I'd assume they'd stick to it. I am actually fully disappointed with GWS, perfect oppotunity for the TAC Cup kit : (
 
Perhaps Collingwood as the home team in white shorts would sought the problem?

And if teams wore the same jumpers they do now for 100+ years without issue surely they can continue to do so...
This clash exists because one of the teams literally isn’t wearing the jumper they wore for 100+ years. Granted it’s not on Collingwood to fix the clash in their home games, but the tradition argument is a very weak one here.

Admittedly it would be more of a solution than the current matchup, but the common sense decision is always going to be Carlton in their clash jumper when they’re the away team.

Maybe the AFL treating these games like every other game instead of turning a blind eye because of ‘tradition’ would solve the problem.

Don’t let the clubs decide. Show some backbone and direct them to wear whatever combination creates the best contrast.

I wouldn't say the tradition argument is as weak at this point. I've grown up with the black home kit, we've won two premierships in it and it's been around for a quarter of a century, featuring in ~50 matchups across that time out of 267 matchups (~1/5th of the total H2H games between)

The easiest solution tbh has always been as easy as us wearing a white home jumper with black shorts.

Such a poor argument

1. Collingwood doesn’t wear a traditional jumper. They went to a black base over 20 years ago, and as the home team they have preference of kit. It’s on Carlton to do something.

2. The game is played at a speed that would seem like fast forward 100 years ago. It may have been easier to discern a slower moving game compared to now. Plus you’ve got TV, hi tech lighting, etc etc which weren’t considerations 100 years ago.

If there was no issue with it then it wouldn’t be talked about every year when this matchup happens without fail

I'm assuming it's too hard on the 2d image with the sash to have the AFL/ANZAC logos like they are on the actual jumper (lower down, with the gap being in-line with dutton). The fujitsu logo on the back has a black text box like a banner that goes across the sash. Both like they had in 2020/2021.
I am going off the Puma artwork.
If the final product is different, I will edit the jumper.
 
Sure, it's not ideal but 10x better than last week:

Port may be the Magpies, but they're not Collingwood.
