Discussion Strange or Interesting AFL Photos

Always felt the AFL should ditch their logo off the jumpers, because the current logo looks pretty awful, and allow clubs to have their team logo there instead. Would look much cleaner, leave the AFL logos on the numbers, shorts and socks.

But then we won't know what we're watching

Good thing the EPL have the patches on the shoulder of the kits, I didn't know I was watching it until they did a close up on the players.

Names on the back, which would bring around numbers and player initials on the front

You can see why when he ran for Parliament his nickname was Notso.

Tom Brady? Nah there's only one GOAT.

Bloody loved those white puma boots. Screams late noughties.

Round 12 1984, Geelong at the Western Oval against Footscray.
Mark Jackson in a 1978 style long-sleeve guernsey and also wearing the 1977-style socks.



Either they made Jacko a new guernsey to the older style (he joined the club in 1984), or it was made for Jeff Fehring (wore 25 for Geelong from 1977–79) and was still at the club rooms. Though this still doesn’t explain the socks.

Thoughts anyone?
Cheers, Lemon Boi

Has there ever been more players from one team wear long sleeves than this game?

Thirteen players on the Brisbane Bears wore long-sleeves against Richmond at the MCG in round 11 1989.
Was played in atrocious weather and led to the ground being in awful condition for the Geelong–Essendon match two days later.



The players were, in numerical order:

1 Mark Mickan; 3 Steve Reynoldson; 5 Brad Hardie; 11 Brenton Phillips; 16 Rod Lester-Smith; 19 Scott McIvor; 22 David Bain; 25 Matthew Campbell; 27 Mark Roberts; 31 David O’Keeffe; 38 Michael Gibson; 39 Warwick Capper; 45 John Gastev.

Cheers, Lemon Boi

Remember when Karmichael Hunt's and Israel Folau's code switches were hotly discussed and Harvs made mention of Muimui Moimoi?

Josh Caddy never wore the jumper in my avatar in a match either.

Extremely rare shorts, considering Sydney didn’t wear white shorts until 2011 and well before 2000

Always been a big fan of the Greater Western Giants' work in League, a cross-code experiment we can all get behind.
