Parramatta are one of the worst at this. One of their two colours is yellow, which is not only distinct from every other club but is also an iconic way to use the colour. The gold Parra jerseys are clearly Parra jerseys. Even the other clubs with yellow as an official colour only use it sparingly : NthQld, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Canberra.
Parra = yellow and blue.
Yet seemingly only their NRL team get to wear yellow.
Their NRLW team last season only had the mostly blue jersey despite Newcastle and Roosters being in the comp. Newcastle, as the designated 'home' team in last year's NRLW Grand Final, still had to wear their white alternate jersey to avoid clashing with Parra just because they didn't want to fork out the extra money on another set of jerseys. It'll be worse this year with the likes of NthQld also joining the comp.
Souths, for all the debate on how their main and alternate kits are effectively the same except for a black or white trim, officially only have red and green as their colours so have to delve into other colours to provide a proper clash alternative.
Parra have a ready-made clash-avoiding colour already at their disposal. They just won't use it properly.
