From guernsey choices to strange hairdos, Jack Ginnivan's decision to don a stylish ring on his finger during a game has inspired a deep-dive into some of the AFL's top wardrobe malfunctions.

Ginnivan was outed by a Pies fan on social media, prompting the league to intervene with a warning.

The questionable decision doesn't stand alone over the years, and this article takes you through some less-than-memorable wardrobe choices.

2. Oops! A major Blue

Carlton's 2014 shorts mix-up almost cost the club over $100,000 in fines, but the issue was quickly rectified.

The Blues stormed onto the Etihad Stadium ground donning white shorts instead of blue.

Facing Geelong who was the home team, it was understood that the Cats would be in all white, meaning Carlton would be decked out in all blue.

The mistake was quickly noticed by a club official, and players were hastily changing shorts in the race before the opening bounce.

A mistake of that nature would result in a dear penalty, with every player not in correct uniform potentially costing Carlton $5,000 per player.

The Blues sent a staffer to its headquarters at Ikon Park to collect a box of blue shorts.

Geelong would win the contest by five points.
