Workshop Jumper Ideas for 2025

[Ginga_Ninja]

Would love to see a combination of retro & heritage round next year.

I feel it would be nice to see some biff in the classic kits.

Below is an example of what could be, more to come soon...

Brisbane vs Gold Coast

For Brisbane I decided to keep it simple and go with the OG Bears look, as I feel like this hasn't been used since it was binned. As for the Suns, I felt an ode to the Southport Sharks history of football on the Gold Coast would be fitting. Incorporating the classic AFLQ logo as well as mix of the sharks 'V' design along with their magpies history with stripes subtly added in the background to pay respects without causing any issues with the sensitive Collingwood crowd.

Secondly, the biggest rivalry of them all. I think we can all agree it would look amazing to see these 2 powerhouse clubs (and fanbases) battling it out in front of 90k+ people at the G in these retro kits.

For the baggers I have used their older CFC monogram purely because I feel it isn't as used and needs some love, I have made the collar a 'yolk' colour as a hint to their very first jumpers and previous heritage jumpers.

As for the Pies, I have made a return to the white with black stripes. As it acts as a perfect clash to Carltons navy blue. The jumper as a whole draws inspiration from the style worn from 1960-1975 with the additional pin stripes aside of the main stripes.

Dons Vs Hok

Another great rivalry.

Essendon's kit take inspiration from their 1996 heritage jumper. There isn't a whole lot to work with, with Essendon's jumpers being mainly black with a red sash throughout their history. I think that the red cuffs and collars is traditional enough while also bringing a fresh take that supporters would enjoy. Red shorts would complete the look but I think considering they are versing the Hawks, black is more suitable.

HokBall takes inspiration from the jumpers worn from 75-05 as there are no stripes on the back of the jumper and also features the retro logo. Not much to say about the Poo's & Wee's as a Geelong supporter, it was tough not to match them up against my mighty Cats. But we will save them for later.

Swans vs Giants. The battle of the bridge they say.

As tempting as it was to bring back the hoops, I decided to bring back the 97' pre season jumper. A very unique blend of design elements that I think would sell well to the current supporters. Nothing much has changed from the original but it would be nice to see it back in action.

GWS was a bit tricky as they don't have too much history to really work with. I would like to do some research to see if there is a local team with history in the area that pre dates the AFL expansion (similar to Southport for GC) but im a bit lazy and wanted to bring back the OG 2010 'Team GWS' kit. I was tempted to recreate the kit in the current charcoal and orange colourway but I think blue is a better clash to the swans red & its more true to the original design. Rather then add the 'team GSW' script below the V, I thought it was more fitting (and looked better) to add the Giants 'G' in its place and a tie between where they started and where they are now.

Could the WC Eagles Ochre jumper be a source of inspiration for a new Gold Coast Suns jumper?

I think something along those lines is in the works for a clash or away strip.

I will be doing every team, eventually.

Can i ask what you guys use for posting images ? Im sure theres a way to post individual images rather then a link to a window of my whole gallery, If that makes sense. I used to use Photobucket, back in the days. But that seems to be a paid service now.

The two oldest running clubs in modern sports. Perfect for a rivalry

Geelong, I wanted to bring back their away jumper from the late 90's. Thought we needed something different outside of the hoops for a change.

Melbourne, an inverted version of the 90s/00s pre season jumper to act as a clash jumper for a game.

North vs St Kilda

No.

It was panned then, and deserves to be now.

Our traditional jumper inverted is all that is required.
Geelong in 1998 were effectively bankrupt, ageing, with a coach nobody liked, and a captain-to-be who would ditch the club before long for 'greener pastures'.

This one deserves to be consigned to the history books. This jumper bears no historical significance to Geelong, other than a memory of those awful days when the club did nothing right.

No.

I will never understand why Collingwood reversed their colours. This with black shorts would be perfect.

Discussion - The real reason behind Collingwood's 2001 guernsey change

Money. But – there's a bit more to the story than that. Yes, the change and introduction of an "innovative" new pre-season jumper alongside an evolutionary home jumper coincided with a lucrative Adidas merchandising contract, but Eddie and the Pies also spun history and a return to tradition as...

Once you go black, never go back

 

[The_torpedo]

I reckon Collingwood should just ditch home and away designations entirely and just have light (classic home) and dark (current home)

would probs go something like this:

Crows: white/white
Lions: white/white
Blues: white/white
Dons: white/white
Dockers: white/white
Cats: black/black
Suns: black/black
Giants: white/white
Hawks: black/black
Dees: white/white
Roos: black/black
Pear: white/white
Tiges: white/white
Saints: white/white
Swans: black/black
Eagles: black/black
Dogs: black/black

I think you're missing the point of the 'retro' aspect.
