I'd also prefer us to wear our home jumper with white shorts but we didn't finish on top so it's really more about accepting a possible future decision and looking for the positives rather than supporting that jumper per se. If you look at pics of both home jumpers side by side, they both have a lot of black along with a yellow sash or yellow hoops so from a TV perspective it may not be enough of a difference. Yet you could argue the white shorts would provide enough clarity to remove the clash appearance. Even with our clash jumper I hope the umpires know who's who in the packs because our socks are very similar!Omarkum said:

We didn't have a color TV in our house until my brother bought one in 1988. That was before HD, 4k, 52" screens.
How we ever watched a Roos v Pies game before that time and knew who was who is just mind boggling.

IF we make the GF say against the Crows, prefer our traditional jumper. I dont think KB is a dinosaur and agree with him wholeheartly.
The white shorts and also white number on the back of the jumper as the Crows have a yellow number should be ok.
I personally don't like the yellow reverse jumper. So go swans till the GF, and no clash of jumpers. The AFL can go & get stuffed for all I care!
IF RFC make the GF and want to wear it, pay the fine, stuff the AFL. Grow some gonads
For the GF, our code's main event, every club imo should be allowed to wear what they like and not be forced to wear something to suit TV broadcasters.
Why not have just a yellow only jumper or a green only jumper, lets head to primary school sports days. TV would love that. Spare me.
Don't care about the comparisons to soccer or other codes.

Seriously, we must have played them for close to 20 years without any hint of a "clash" of jumpers.

Agree. This is a GF. The last game of the season. Who cares about pedantic colour clashes. Use your instincts and the best team wins. Turnovers or no turnovers.
