New clash jumper - reversed strip

Did anyone except anything less than a nothing response from Peggy?
Cmon mate, your having a go at Peggy over that ? We are in a grand final and Peggy deserves big kudos for it. Peggy is not a big loud mouth flog like other Presidents I.e McGuire, Koch , no doubt Peggy and Benny will already have been on the phone to Gil, highly doubt it will get changed but she knows the right way to deal with Gil an co
 
Its a disgrace imo. Well i prefer a loud president. There is no right way to deal with Gill.
Hird and now if Gill gets on the mike I'll boo them
 
i've been a member for 43 years and i love the fact we NOW have 2 great iconic jumpers - couldn't give a stuff which one we wear
 
To be honest the AFL will be the ones to rightly cop the backlash - they couldn't wait until today to make the announcement could they and let us savour the victory. They had to be cynical as they always are and make the statement shortly after our win.

The AFL should be allowing us to wear to the traditional strip to thank us for getting their crowd numbers up to record levels - because they've lost plenty of supporters due to the way their running the comp.
 
Instead of sooking about it, just embrace it and paint Melbourne yellow. Seriously thinking about buying the clash jumper and wearing it on Saturday

I'm the same tote. Too happy we're finally there to focus on little negatives. It's not the colour of the jumper that will win this game for us. Still I've gotta admit I can't see too much of a clash problem between the teams.

Very good call.

You can whinge about the whims of the AFL but they will most likely also find a way to turn a blind eye to the Cotchin thing and let him play.
Gotta take the good with the bad.
 
It's not the combination of the team colours but the hearts of the players that play in it. If doing something different brings about a flag then let's do it!!! Also the clash jumpers will be sold-out. More $ for the Tiger Superstore = more $ for Richmond.
 
I hate the clash jumper. Always have. Makes me puke. There is no clash. Afl are a holes imo and just couldn't wait to stick it to the club announcing it asap. The club does not have to do it and claim our hands are tied. Weak.

What if Cotchin gets suspended will the board have the guts to fight the AFL in the Supreme Court?
Personally think Cotchin is ok but afl has always lack integrity and consistency.
 
what's the AFL going to do with we run out in our traditional jumper?
Call off the game?
 
Going around on Twitter, the Bombers didn't wear a clash jumper when they played this year. So there is no difference.

Woah. So the basis of the clash? Some tv executive told the afl doesn't like rfc jumper? Afl goes ok?
Where does the basis of the clash come from? Whose opinion? Won't be just Gill
 
Don't make this week all about the jumper. The club accepted it immediately. They want to move on and focus on the main prize. The supporters need to let them.

I quite like the clash strip and couldn't care less what we wear.

Yes agree we are in a grannie - disappointed but that's the AFL for you so who would be surprised with their decision - need Eddie everywhere to go hard on it

That's the bit that hurts more Eddie from Collingwood is more outward supportive of RFC. He was going hard after the Foxtel show. he was disgusted. I expected more from the our club. Not even a whimper.
