Players need to remember how much a jersey and the colours mean to us the Fans.
Not a good look

Doing it to appease fans only is kinda like
getting mum to fight all your battles.
Can be done behind closed doors.
As @cochise explained, most employers have social media policies and procedures and code of conduct, ethics, etc.
I think Tamou, Dane and whoever else need to be thoroughly reminded of this.
I was told once a Coles employee can't just go around the back on their lunch break and have a cigarette whilst wearing their uniform. The same should apply, in a sense to players.
I don't care if some may see it as petty.
In the public eye, you represent only one club - the club you're contracted to. Simple as that, IMO.
Do whatever you want in retirement, be like Cronk and fawn over the Roosters. But as a current player, policy applies.
Granted. But what if we don’t have any?
I can’t imagine many clubs putting together a code of conduct that states when you are employed with us, for the life of that contract. You are not to wear any other clubs jerseys or memorabilia or express any empathy towards that club.
Swapping jerseys is an old rugby league tradition too. I doubt this would be documented.
Edit: or perhaps it is and that’s why players have stopped.
I've only seen it really happen in world cup games to be honest.
Never seen say some Pareamatta guy swap his jersey after the game with a sharks player for the sake of it.
This isn't even like that anyway.
It's two contracted players to the Tigers parading 'round like they themselves just won the comp when in fact, they should be 100% all in on trying to achieve this with the club they're at and being paid to be at.
Anyway, like I said.... I'm 100% not with it.
I said it before and I'll say it again
If you're a WestPac employee, you don't say oOooOoh!! Go Commonwealth, you legends !! When they win bank of the year, waving your Commonwealth bank flag.
You look at what they did and try and figure out a way to do better.
The competition is the competition no matter your former affiliations.
No, the analogy that is applied to this is if your a WestPac employer and you’ve decided to use Commonwealth bank as your private account.
And your photoshopped walking into a commonwealth bank branch to do your banking.

Was only a matter of time. Now Daine will need to make some sort of statement.

It's being held accountable for your actions.
I doubt the Melbourne lads are really that sorry but they looked very embarrassed making their statements.
