i've been watching the richmond v north melb match & richmond are wearing yellow shorts so should west go back to red & glenelg to yellow (not gold as that didn't work) etc, rather than wearing predominately white shorts ? as i think it looks great

Agree.
Richmond looked good (fashion wise that is) tonight and so did Essendon.
West should wear white shorts though when they play Port,South & Norwood though.

I've always thought the yellow/red shorts look good with Glenelg & West.

Not a fan of the yellow and red away shorts
Prefer white shorts for away .... white goes with anything

Still have my red shorts from the playing days at Centrals, mrs smac loves it when I wear them gardening.
I reckon we should still wear them perhaps for home games with white for away.

Going for the opposite tact, I'd like to see North wear white shorts instead of red shorts.

Coloured Shorts is by far the better way of going, White Shorts can clash with the white on the other sides guernsey. Going coloured is a lot better if watching on TV!

West Torrens also wore yellow shorts for a couple of seasons in the 70s.

Maybe we should go that way with the Eagle Gold jumper.

How old are you guys?
You must be reliving the glory days
Have to admit watching the AWFL I was glad we got rid of all those lovely coloured shorts.
Sorry guys its time to shave off those sideburns and get rid of your afro........

"only" 33, bosvit!
Loved the yellow shorts .. so easy to distinguish!
Maybe a good idea for games such as Essendon-Richmond, Carlton-Footscray or Essendon-Melbourne, etc.

250 up ... I'm now an Under 17, yay!
BTW ... what was the story with the North jumper last weekend? Any special reason? It's wasn't pretty that's for sure.
It ranked down there with the old Geelong West VFA outfit - a white jumper with a red "GW" and red number on the back, white shorts and red socks.

If West should, then why wouldn't Glenelg or Norwood?
