Workshop Jumper Ideas for 2019

[Prison bar Pete]

I love the Giants colours, and I'm warming to the 'G', but I still think they should come up with a better logo at some point.

One of my favourite jumpers from the 80's, was the Woodville Warriors jumper, the yellow jumper with a green yoke with a 'Warrior' head on it, which looked to me kind of like a robot head, which I thought looked really cool, and I was thinking that a great interpretation of the name Giants, could be a giant robot character like one of those robots in Transformers, or something like that.

So instead of a slanted G, they could have a stylized robot head in the middle of their jumper, which I think would look unique and modern and would give them a bit more of an identity. They want to convert the next generation while they're young, and kids love robots.

As cool as this looks in my head, I don't have the graphic design skills to realize it, but maybe one of the talented designers here could have a crack, if they think it's worthwhile.

Yeah I think the 'G' stays now. GWS dared to be different with the logo, colours, songs, etc. and it's an identity that has grown on me over time. As I've said about Carlton, if they were an expansion club today they would be mocked mercilessly for their name and jumper and yet it is one of the most iconic jumpers in sport. The Giants identity was jarring at the beginning but they've really kicked some goals with the direction they took.

Exactly. The Giants have a classic design (yoke) with a twist (G) which is ideal for an expansion team.

I love the ‘G’ / NSW shape.

With the Giants identity, I think they've nailed it. Like what else would they have, a big cartoon giant, no thanks.

Yeah love the NSW’s in the G

Would be keen on them to keep the G but change the jumper

Didn't UA endorse Trump or some shit? I'd want no part of them at the eagles personally. Umbro on the other hand could make some sweet kits, going by this year's soccer range they've put out.

I didn’t know it was possible to get political about a merchandise manufacturer, but blow me down, you’ve managed it

Fantastic, I really wish Norf had stayed with their blue on white jumper, it was class.

Love that Adelaide one, logo looks much better than the current one which I'm not a fan of.


Don't mind your Gold Coast one, but I think the logo is just a little below LeeARM's magnificent creation.

God forbid anyone have a broader opinion than "this template's collar is shit"

This is a footy board. Keep political bullshit off of it.

Can we leave it there from both sides please.

I love the ‘G’ / NSW shape.

Have been watching the Giants for the journey and had never twigged that the G might also represent a plan of NSW.
And so the inner orange colour in relief of the letter G could be Sydney Harbour!

 

[Silent Alarm]

It's the AFL's 125 in a couple of years. Surely we'll see something?

 

[Silent Alarm]

FWIW I think you should celebrate seasons (ala 30 AFL seasons, the 125th of the league) but years for clubs/since an occasion. I know Gibbsy is a schtickler for these things.

Too similar to the current away. At least go with the 5 stripe version from 1886

I'd be interested to see how their original guernsey would be received though.

I'd rather see them in their first VFL jumper.

A couple of years ago i think i remember the crows celebrating 25th year and then the next year celebrating 25 years since first game? odd.
