How long are we going to allow collingwood to dictate their own agenda to the afl.?

Question

Can someone tell me the difference between their home and away guernsey's. Do they really expect us to believe that a footy jumper with black and white stripes is significantly different to one that has white and black stripes.

Answer 1

its called tradition

away jumpers are just c**p and not needed

a pair of white shorts is all that's needed by away teams

Answer 2

Im a bit of a traditionalist i dont see the need for away strips

the game has been around for 150 years and the same coulours have been around for ages(with the exeption of the interstate teams) and it hasnt been an issue until the last few seasons so what has changed?

Answer 3

yes collingwoods home jumper is black&white

and collingwoods away jumper is white &black

simple realy

Answer 4

It is Collingwood. Just like Carlton, Richmond, Melbourne  and essendon they have been around the longest and honestly should not have to change their tops if they do not want to.

I think what I am trying tosay it is TRADITION. and unless you are from WA or one of the clubs that cry about it all the time get over it and show these clubs some respect.

And no I do not support anyone of these clubs I am a Hawks guy.

Answer 5

its their colours so just leave it. they dnt have to have different coloured jumpers if they dont want.

Answer 6

i, as a barracker for a financially "worse-off" team (north melbourne) know exactly wat you are talking about.

eddie complained about brisbane and sydney's concessions and they were removed.

but what really gets me is the draw.

collingwood never travel more than four times every year.

to be honest, i blame the afl more than collingwood particularly, as i am rather jealous of collingwood but dont think they do anything wrong. it is rather the afl giving in to collingwood

i liken it to india dictating cricket and owning the icc....if youre a cricket fan at all

Answer 7

Don't let it worry you.

It's the way of the world mate.

Do you really think it's that big a deal, when the game starts and you are watching them, do you sit there all day worrying about that, to tell you the truth, i couldn't care less, I'd hate Richmond's to be changed, all yellow with a black stripe for instance, i am a bit of a traditionalist, if they are really going to clash then toss a bloody coin or the away team wear a totally diff jumper maybe.

sleep well mate,i won't give it another thought.
