The Dawks jumper image you made comment on is a limited use targeted charitable strip, not a valid part of an argument about general use alternative strips, it is an extremist example.
As for alternate strips, clubs submit any number of options to the AFL, only the AFL has the power to decide which are approved. Why the AFL hasn't acted on Collingwood is a very different question. Some argued Carlton should do the same, but I suppose Collingwood isn't financially underwritten by the AFL like Carlton, who would have thought some external influence might have such effects! It must be a conspiracy!
Blah blah blah lets completely miss the point again.
I understand alternative strips, 1 off strips and all that nonsense.
That doesn't mean you come up with the ugliest jumper you can. Sombody had to choose that jumper. Somebody had to approve that jumper. They can do better. EOS.
