News New Jumpers for 2024

[Mozzie_Squad]

If you still have blokes on your list who were playing when the jumper was last used, then I don't think enough time has passed for it to be considered 'retro'

 

[phantom13]

I dont even care that theyve "thrownback" to something so recent, just stop calling it throwback or retro.

 

[Mr Eagle]

"Menacing" Hawk.
How about "badly drawn" or "out of proportion" Hawk or "4 different pieces of a hawk cobbled together" Hawk

The claws, head, tail and wings are all in different proportion to each other.
And each is a different drawing.

It will always be Squishybird to me.

 

[its been done]

10 years ain't retro

That's like Brisbane trotting out the Paddle Pop for old times sake

We got elements of the Paddle Pop Lion this year for Indigenous Round, most notably the long blue yoke

Wearing it against Collingwood. Can’t make this stuff up.

Yeah what’s with that? I assumed when it was released they’d be playing Eagles/GWS/Richmond

Why introduce white against the team that is 50% white?

I remember when they first introduced the inverse (brown with gold stripes) and started wearing it in away games with white shorts vs Collingwood.

Like, come on.

This is a very cool initiative! Reckon we can guess all the different clubs on the hoop?

Melbourne, Richmond, Port Adelaide, Essendon, Western Bulldogs, Saint Kilda

It will look funny (but not in a bad way?) with a number of the junior clubs mimicking afl logos. For example on Geelong’s Instagram, Jack bowes looking like he has a st kilda logo on his jumper.

I had to check the fixture again to see if they were playing the Saints or Essendon

 

[errant bounce]

I like the club logos but reckon it'd have more effect, and be better balanced, if it replaced the Cats one.

Good idea with the junior teams along the hoop but I think most people will assume they're flags; local clubs go through a lot of jumper redesigns. most people connote them with the geography, the ground, or the nickname.

Also cannae be arsed but the AFL website had a photo for a few days of Hawkins in a GFC monogrammed crew neck. it actually looked great. be interesting to see if they bring that back. the current logo is associated with a lot of success but I'm not sure it's that relevant for merchandising anymore.

It was only worn it one flag compared to the current one which has featured in our last three premierships.

jezza cameron dartmoor, they have their old jersey design on the jumper hope they use the old logo as well, i won't get close's jersey as i play for east (we hate north)

 

[Rickee]

Why couldn't that get that right? Even the side bars are missing and the bolts/magpie wings look a little smaller. The only thing it's a bit of an improvement from their 2014 botched job of that uniform design, but it's not at all a proper replica.

I assume they couldn't replicate the strip exactly because the design is owned by Nike.

The AFL own the rights to all AFL guernseys except Indigenous jumpers from what I know.

The AFL own it, you mean, and the late Ian Kidd designed it.

Wasn’t the whole point of having the two logos is that that one would be on jumpers forever while the other one would change with the times/fashion?

 

[Lagooner]

And a kid designed its replacement.

 

[Mero]

The footyjumpers.com version will of course have number 22, so I will use Mitch Duncan's jumper as the sample logo.
Carine FC are the Cats.

All owned by The AFL.

You can see in this picture that the band of jumpers gets cut off at the side seam. If there's a repeating set of 16 jumpers used for the front, presumably the back will have the other 21 on repeat. Bigger players will just get more repeating of each pattern to fill out the width of their jumper.
