AFLW 2024 - Round 6 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Material shortages during World War II resulted in all teams bar Newtown changing from striped jerseys to solid-colour jerseys with vees. Eastern Suburbs switched to sky blue as navy blue was prioritised for Naval uniforms; oddly, Footscray did the exact opposite by switching from royal blue to navy blue in 1944–1946.
Cumberland disbanded in late 1908 after losing all eight of their matches.
Newcastle split into local teams that competed in their own minor league.
Annandale won just 25 of their 153 matches, and were voted out after they had been evicted from their home ground in 1919.
Glebe were also voted out for the same reason. Like Annandale, the suburb was becoming more industrial and less residential.
University were a strictly amateur club with no home ground; as such they won only two games in their last four seasons.
Newtown was excluded from the 1984 season due to poor facilities and spiralling debts; they continue to play in the NSW state league (like Port Melbourne).
North Sydney was merged with Manly–Warringah in 1999 to form the ill-fated Northern Eagles which lasted from 2000–2002 and was entirely owned and operated by Manly. Manly dissolved the partnership in early 2003 and resumed competing as Manly. North Sydney also continues in the NSW state league.
Balmain and Western Suburbs were merged in late 1999 to create Wests Tigers which competes in the NRL today.
I’m posting these uniforms by team, by the year the entered the competition; next will be St. George, then Canterbury–Bankstown.

I think rabbitoh21 still has his vectorised logos from this portfolio.I’m working with MS Paint here; it was difficult to get a Super League logo in the first place.
If you can get the coloured logos, I’ll put them on the jerseys.
