Workshop State League Designs/Discussion

I like that South Adelaide clash kit.

The Glenelg BLK jumper is of a horrible cut and fit. Nice sponsor integration though.

 

[Andonis1997]

Sturt's new guernsey. Doesn't seem to have side panels this year.

Can't really tell, though.

Some of these have really gone downhill, even if you put aside the sponsorship issue...

About half the league is kitted out in shitty jumpers. Claremont need to bring back their own monogram, Peel need to bring their original jumper back (or better yet. Piss off completely), East Freo need to sort their shit out, you don't solve a potential clash by having your club run out in a clash jumper. Chuck some more blue on there dammit!

I also wish the WAFL would sorta regulate sponsor positioning and size. Subi is about the only club that has a visible design. All the others are absolute billboards. (Although I'm not sure how well off money wise the WAFL is to be making moves like that).

As I said on my own Rebranding Thread, Claremont looks like the child of a Carlton and Richmond jumper marriage. Claremont change the logo on their jumpers when Carlton changes theirs. I am amazed that they haven't changed it to the old style logo yet. Claremont has has their own logo before and should use it again.

My design includes the old Claremont logo on the normal and clash jumpers.

East Fremantle have moved away from their past designs with their current jumper. No stripes, and less blue. All it has now is a white jumper with blue side panels and a monogram.

My design brings back the stripes and the blue to the jumpers, and includes a reversed clash jumper as well.

I will also add my Swan District jumpers here as well.

Less of a Collingwood rip off and more Swan Districts.

Yes, I saw this as well. Round 15 I think.

 

[DAT8]

For heritage round will teams have special jumpers? It would be awesome if someone could make them on here

Watch this space.

This is my take on what West Perth might wear, its their 1940 design but just with the monogram. what do you guys think?

I made a bunch on my Heritage Round portfolio.

WAFL time. The games go over Round 1 and 2. Perth and Subiaco face off in Round 2 because of the odd number of teams. I may need some Western Australians to help me out with the fixtures and stuff, but that's a minor detail.
So here's the fixture:
Round 1:
Friday, 18 March, Claremont vs West Perth, Claremont Showgrounds, 7:00 PM
Saturday, 19 March, Swan Districts vs East Fremantle, Steel Blue Oval, 2:15 PM
Saturday, 19 March, East Perth vs Subiaco, Medibank Stadium, 4:15 PM
Saturday, 19 March, Peel vs South Fremantle, Domain Stadium, 7:10 PM
Round 2:
Friday, 25 March, Perth vs Subiaco, Lathlain Park, 7:00 PM
And here are the match-ups.

Wp will wear the 1941 jumper as it was in 1941 IMO. 75 years since the premiership

West Perth and Subiaco will wear special jerseys to commemorate International Round in the WAFL, yes the Falcons will wear sleeves as they did last year

Like the concept, but not keen on the sleeves! Any other teams doing one-offs as well? Cheers.

Here are some designs for Peel Thunder and West Perth.

Beat me too it! The sleeves are ok I guess, not sure what the cartoon lion is doing on Subiaco's though.

No other teams, just these two as far as I'm aware

Errrrrrr does that mean Glenelg are a Richmond rip off?

You do know clubs have independent histories irrelevant of other ones. North Fremantle are the Magpies and one of the oldest clubs in the country, yet I'm pretty sure they didn't rip off Collingwood and by no means did they rip off Swans (who are a relatively youngish club – only like 70 years old, I think).

These are classic! How's that bulldog?

 

[Silent Alarm]

Yeah I just came here to post that! I hadn't seen most of those before – and especially hadn't seen a game ball with both red and yellow panels, that's straight outta the soft-touch bin at Rebel Sport – but man, they're cool.

I know fellow footy jumper board aficionado Smeagle owns one of those Subi ones somehow, but I god damn swear I've seen that Souths one before. My main junior club wore an inverse of the normal Bulldogs jumpers, so we might've had one or two floating around as training strips. But also... if this has Fast Eddie's as a back sponsor, I reckon I inherited it but no longer have it. Wherever I saw it, I reckon I used to wonder how a blurred gorilla was supposed to resemble a dog...

 

[Chris who]

I have a west Perth player issue version with the number 7 on the back

The numbers are the double lined hollow ones like early 80s st kilda

 

[LeeARM]

Do Subiaco still use this as their clash jumper?

 

[Silent Alarm]

I don't know but I know for a fact that the WAFL could have the coolest suite of league wide home and clash jumpers. Just about every club has a jumper from their past that's of relative colour difference, of success, or it just being unique... and/or all of those things.

Ie, East Fremantle should wear all blue with the penguin strip – with a blue back. While the away strip should be hooped socks, white shorts, and their Geelong-like striped jumper (but with the big middle strip featuring the monogram). The back would be primarily white, and it'd avoid clashes with the Royals and and Claremont.

West Perth keep their current one, but for games v Bullies they should go one of their royal designs. This Western Bulldogs-like one makes the most sense, as the other royal strip has a big red yoke (ie Melbourne inverse). It'd be like Essendon's clash jumper having a Carlton-like monogram...

I like Subi in full stripes, like a burgandy version of the Hawks current away, but they've been so successful in their current strip you have to recognise that. I'd like to see full stripes but the SFC interlock being placed in the middle. Maybe just a big circle with it inside could actually look okay. They then have so many options for cool away strips...

Inverses of

But I ****in love this one. So simple but it just works – bold, obviously Subi, just cool. Like a Bears away strip or somethin'

Speaking of unique, when are Souths doing this again?

 

[Silent Alarm]

By the way, early 20th century West Aussie clubs were like identical. Almost every club had their initials in an oval, usually intruding on a yoke. Love it – up there with centre diamonds, red posts, 25 metre arcs... Burleys... Few examples of each

Also a fair bit of just straight up acronym work before that

(Claremont-Cottesloe back then)

Absolutely love this. So art-deco. Sharks are the kings of art-deco chic

I do not recall much of this in Victoria. The VFL seemed to favour stripes, hoops, and sashes quite early on. Monograms were truly that quite early on. What was the SANFL like?
