Thoughts on this clash strip?

We may have a tactical advantage in our solar reflective white. Those dirty pies will swelter in our melbourne heatwave (20 degrees) while we saunter about in relative comfort. Also a flash of white in the eyes of Heath Shaw as he goes to tackle, goal Schnides! Embrace the insipid white.
Another advantage when Razor Ray looks bleary eyed at a team of men in white and goes into anti Pies overdrive giving a record 300 free against Collingwood.

Sorry. Nothing good about that in the slightest. Other than the colours of course.
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

I don't mind it as well and it looks similar to a strip we wore many years ago, so it does have some history to it IMO...Calais wrote:I think I'm the only one that likes itsnowdelisaint wrote:Absolutely terriblehaha
Anyways our back is pretty ordinary IMO. It's just plain white!
In any case if we win, I believe they are going to change to their original home strip for the presentations.
Don't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel to appear, run down there and light the bloody thing yourself!

Is THAT the clash strip we'll be using? That's fine...I love it!
I thought it was the dreaded basketball shirt look we had at one stage!
What about the 'Yellow Peril" of '03?
We'd beat Collingwood evn if we were wearing pink jumpers anyway!

In honour of those who went before, in the dark and desperate years.

The official clash strip is ALMOST all right -- it's just the thinness of the stripes at the side -- and the wideness of the middle white stripe -- that wrecks it.
Makes it look like they're wearing a much-too-small waistcoat, (or have a much-too-big gut).
The idea of the traditional strip, but on a white base instead of a black base, to me is the absolutely correct idea. We wore it through the 1950s, so it's traditional too.
AS for Calais' effort: ... admirable, ... clever, ... quite attractive, ... very well executed, ... but, ultimately, not what I'd want.
(Much better than most of the unnecessarily contrived ones we've seen in recent years for many other clubs, though.)
Except for the socks. Footballers just can't look fearsome in white socks.
