At first Essendon was regarded as a junior club, and even after the formation of the VFA in 1877 the side was sometimes allowed 'odds' of, for example, twenty five players as against twenty, when confronted by the leading teams of the time.
Essendon had 3 wins in the season, against Sydney Swans in Round 1, the Brisbane Lions in Round 17, and against rivals the Collingwood Magpies in Round 19.
Essendon have agreed on this second option as their "clash jumper", however the club has stated it intends to do whatever possible to avoid ever wearing the alternate design, to widespread support from the majority of club members and traditionalists from other clubs.
