Footy fans have been left underwhelmed after the AFL's 19th team was officially launched on Monday night.

The competition's new team, based in Tasmania, will be called the Tasmania Devils and will don the state's traditional green, yellow and red when it enters the league in 2028.

The colours are officially myrtle green, primrose yellow and rose red, the exact same colours that have represented the state team for over a century.

And while the club's name has proven a hit with fans, the strip - which is essentially a carbon copy of the state kit - has left fans feeling flat.

'You can't use the state jumper as the AFL jumper,' one fan said on X.
