Same here...I can live with us wearing them.
My parents bought me a Richmond jumper and enrolled me in a junior footy clinic in 1981...look at me now.

White shorts with our clash jumper is going to look worse than what white shorts look like with ourt normal jumper.....

So with that in mind - yellow shorts for mine :thumbsup

New jumper for Tigers in sash clash with Bombers
10:34 AM Thu 23 August, 2007
for richmondfc.com.au

Richmond will unveil its clash jumper in Sunday’s twilight ‘Blockbuster’ against Essendon at the MCG.

The design is very similar to the traditional Tiger guernsey, but with a lot more yellow incorporated. There are yellow side panels, a yellow collar, yellow around the sleeves, as well as a wider yellow sash. The number on the back is black inside a white panel.

Tiger members and supporters overwhelmingly voted for this clash strip in a special poll conducted on the Club’s website last year.

The alternative guernsey was designed at the request at the AFL, to specifically avoid a clash in away matches against Essendon.

Retention of the famous colors and sash was a key consideration for the Tigers in designing a clash strip.

A hell of a lot better than Essendon's that's for sure and we still looked like the Tigers I know and love. I was pleasantly surprised however I still don't understand why we need it. Our traditional strip wouldn't have clashed either.

As I am!!!
I thought the jumper makes the players look bigger and bulkier ans i liked the old fashioned number on the white panel
