Portfolio VFA Jumpers (by West_Coast_Eagles)

It was actually 1982.

They had a large VFA monogram on their rep jumpers 1950-1978 then introduced the classic VFA shield for the 1979 season. This shield only appeared on the rep jumpers 1979-1981. It wasn't until 1982 that the clubs started wearing the VFA shield on their jumpers.

Pic below is from the opening round edition of The Recorder in 1979 (note, based on the above "during matches on a Sunday" would have meant on signage, promotional materials at the grounds, etc):
