Maybe it'll only be minor tweaks to the current design??
In 2012 when bankwest came on board, we lost the white outline, around the wings and eagle head. Not sure when that was announced, but feel like it was just an article on their website and that's about it, no big presentation or anything like that.
Maybe with HJs coming back, they'll tweak the logo slightly, but not enough to deserve a full on presentation at the club champs.
Can anyone recall a major guernsey change that wasn't announced at the club champ awards??

Hmmmm I dunno I'd say they're trying to sell every ounce of puma merch left.
They can also have another big announcement just before preseason.

No previous guernsey change has been concurrent with a manufacturer change. They probably can't unveil anything new until a certain date, contractually.
The new away in 2012 was announced the 31st of October, so my previous statement about the new football year being 1st of November must be correct. I reckon if any thing's changing, which we're pretty sure it will, it'll be around that time.

So 25 more days. Are we allowed to upload our fan art yet, or will our posts still get deleted?
Who knows, I don't make the rules. I'd say go for it and see what happens

Does anyone know if the puma store at Watertown still stocks the 30 year jumpers? I don't want to make the trek down from Joondalup if they're out.

The AFL store in the city was a pop up store. Don't think it's there anymore.

There is now a permanent one, closer to William street from the old pop up store.

You would think the draftees would be showing the new logo, jumper and sponsors and they'd want to announce it before then.

The draft is late November. Any announcements/changes will be before then. If not, there are no changes and we've been had.

SA GREAT
I just bought the other 2 of the 2017 Puma wings set.
If we change to ISC my missus is gonna be pissed off and I may need a place to crash for a while.

Is this years gold wings the only jumper in our history we'll only wear for one year?
Few jumpers with minor changes that we only wore for one year.
Only had Burswood as sponsor for 1 year, pretty sure we only wore the peril with SGIO for one year. The centenary jumpers were only worn for one season, plus our royal wings with the back sponsor was only worn for the 94 season before we changed to the navy and royal with white outlines and no eagles text. So a few times that jumpers changed slightly from season to season.

I'd classify a new logo as a proper change though, rather than the minor tweaks you described above.
Yeah but the peril we wore this year wasn't a major change from the previous years guernseys, and it'll only be worn for one season, sort of like the changes I mentioned.
Obviously next season will be a big change like you said (well hopefully it's not though, hopefully it's all rumours and we don't see the fan art logo)

I'd say the gold wings we wore this year is a huge jumper change. Hadn't had a gold jumper in rotation for 28 years other than what 5 one offs? Significantly bigger than a sponsor change.
