From the AFL, I give you Hawthorn's pre-season jumper of 1995.

This seriously has to be the worst sporting uniform ever worn by any team from any code. It is 16 different flavours of wrong.

My condolences to your eyes...

Actually the AFL has quite a few crimes against nature...

There's the Brisbane Bears original jumper -



...and the follow up -



also Port Adelaide's away jumper of 2004 -



and West Coast's away jumper of2000/2002 -

So the idea is to blind/distract the opposition when not playing at home. Therefore negating the home advantage?????

I must confess that I nearly bought one of those Port Adelaide shirts when I was there a few years ago. 
 
Luckily, my missus slapped some sense into me before I got the credit card out.

Didn't WBA have one like that- i read a theory that it suggested danger cos it was striped like a poisonous amazonian tree  frog.

 
There are two conflicting theories regarding goalie jumpers:
 
1. be as conspicuous as possible, make yourself and big and bright targte for the striker's eye
2. be as subtle as possible, stealthily moving into position

Nothing of the sort. Orange doesn't work with maroon. Orange works with blue, and preferably a diamond-shaped logo

As for the NHL - this St Louis Blues alternate was considered so bad, that their then-coach refused to let his team play in it - thus preventing it from ever being used.

95-96 season. Pretty sure none were sold - usually the NHL withholds third jerseys from public sale until after they've been played in for at least one match IIRC.

Man, loving this thread:
 
 
Technically a good strip-clean, simple, historical 'mana' () but always thought it says a lot about our country that our national team plays in black-does this refelct our high youth suicide rate and terminal lack of imagination- aren't we supposed to be the brasil of rugby?
