Discussion Jumpers That Never Were

[sjohnson]

Some lucky bastard got his hands on this jumper, I wasn't even allowed to take a photo of it.

This was the jumper I was talking about on this board in 2014 when I said the club wanted a Bears clash jumper in 2015 but got denied by the AFL and that they thought names on the back of jumpers was a certainty.

That would probably be one of the best ever clash jumpers if it got approved (not including Freo's 3D anchor of course, that would just make the playing field too uneven )

Why was it denied by the AFL?

The AFL have some very random rule that certain clubs have to have a percentage of white in their clash... and some don't

 

[Heardy_101]

Yeah, let's NOT even go there!

Would love the club to bring in this clash now teams seem to not have to be in white, also like this edit I just made, add the line to make it a true 1987 to 1991 Bears based jumper.

That's so smart! I'm sure some old Fitzroy fan would be angry at them playing around with the lion but it works really well to give make it feel more like a bears jumper.

Even putting a space between the Lion's ball and the beginning of the Bear's line would mean the idea of a Bears-themed jumper is retained while not interfering with the Lion

 

[Chuckie357]

Why don’t bridbsne have a lions clash for one or two years then a bears one for the same period and keep alternating

 

[Heardy_101]

They already have a "Fitzroy inspired" away jumper.

I'm personally not a fan of the line idea

Lets just hope if they do that they put the back line on the correct side

More what if for Freo: https://www.watoday.com.au/sport/af...ced-as-the-16th-afl-team-20181213-p50m2a.html

As yet the club has no official name, no jumper – although blue, red and white vertical stripes have been suggested – and no home ground. But it is expected to be based at Fremantle Oval and play its home games at both Subiaco Oval and the WACA ground. This means that AFL football will be played in Perth every weekend.

From that article, this could have been a good home and away kit combination

I love this photo of Neesham, honestly looks like he should have a six pack of Furphys under his arm or sipping a gin at Section 8.

It looks like Neesham is judging a nose picking contest and is surprised by the quality of the finalists.

What Brisbane's AFLW guernseys could have looked like.

Went with the least worst option but seriously wish our women wore the same jumper as the mens (with the straight yoke)

 

[SC26]

This 2018 Brisbane reversible training guernsey which was for sale from the UK is quite interesting
(https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BRISBAN...m43663.l10137&nordt=true&rt=nc&orig_cvip=true)
1 - it is missing a collar, cuffs and bottom finishing
2 - it has the Camperdown logo; they wasn't sponsor in 2018 due to financial issues

 

[And_ROOS]

At least their on field logo is pretty good

Should be our only logo. Staggers me that we have two, and that the main one is so bad.

Not sure about that.
I know the EDFL used this at one stage

I think they then went to an Essendon-style jumper but now no longer compete in the league. That’s a shame because my dad wants me to move to an EDFL club but I can’t prove that the NFL is better any more.

Yes, a thin sash version.
Many years ago they used a Red jumper with a Black EDFL patch over the left breast.
