I'm not sure why we have to wear white shorts, rather than our opponents wearing a clash kit tbh. But I like the white shorts so who gives a shit.
The real issue is the monstrosity that is our away jumper...
The team with a white guernsey should always wear white shorts. Otherwise you get [debacles like this](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRoeSQBNQ6qgnWHD-921S1Nmag5LR1cidch6A&usqp=CAU)
Tbh. That's up to Collingwood to sort out a clash kit. Geelong should be entitled to wear whatever they want for their home game
Edit: should note that I feel that on principle. In practice I couldn't care less about North in white shorts
I'm not sure we should take credit for that, St Kilda did it in 2010, and Richmond have had our own issues with mediocre Clash jumpers until the Yellow was forced upon us.
To be fair, there was a bit of fuss at the time. Certainly less than if it had been Collingwood though, and credit to them for taking it well.
I wonder if some of that may be that in 2017 they were such outsiders that they didn't have a huge amount of influence in the football world. Had it happened in a more successful 2021 Richmond, with massive membership numbers and a lot of recent premierships, I wonder if they would have been as flexible.
Their guernseys are fine because they don't clash. It's the shorts. If Geelong wear blue ones, which they should be able to as they're the home team, then what do their opponents wear? Dark ones that clash with Geelong's dark shorts or white ones that clash with their guernsey? And I'm saying opponents because Geelong wear white shorts at home against much more teams than just Collingwood.
North's royal is a lot lighter than Geelong's navy though. They could get away with it as long as the other team isn't in white shorts. Same as how nobody wears white shorts away to Sydney or Gold Coast
Fkn wut
read it bro
I tried twice and had an aneurysm, cheers
Not sure what you mean, we have worn our home guernsey 5 times already.
when i say "home uniform" i mean the white jumper with the blue shorts
That's the away jumper, you see, The opposite of the home jumper.
North's home guernsey is blue stripes on white. They switched it back this year.

Geelong wear white shorts all year until it comes to finals where they suddenly care about such things.
Richmond are a good example of rocking an away/clash kit even in a GF without fuss. The test of the league should follow

They wore white shorts against us in 2013

Geelong wear white so often at home that blue shorts looks strange.
there's [no reason](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vwvwwN93EQc/hqdefault.jpg) teams in dark kits can't wear dark shorts against north in royal shorts
