Jumper clash with Hawthorn?
« on: March 28, 2021, 06:52:19 PM »
Hard to split a Tiger from a Hawk

There was little Hawthorn nor Richmond could do to avoid a colour-clash on Sunday, but the similarity in jumpers made for tricky passages throughout the game. The Hawks conceded 21 of their 28 points in the opening term direct from turnover, but they might have had a fair excuse for a few of their errors. Both sides appeared to find it hard to differentiate their teammates from their opponents on certain occasions, with Changkuoth Jiath handballing direct to Kamdyn McIntosh to open the scoring in the second term, before Harry Morrison converted from an uncharacteristically stray Shane Edwards handball soon after. Separating the jumper colours of each side made for a difficult afternoon, with the mistakes continuing after half-time.

I’m thinking they’re making an excuse for poor skills.
