Wasn't really sure where to post this other than somewhere on bigfooty but this community should take a long hard look at these guernseys and ask ourselves if we know of them. Protecting kids and our community has to be one of the reasons we love footy everyone!

Tagging Munners for the guernsey identification.

Far out, it's hard to make out with the blurriness. It's not a common looking jumper with the fully red back. It would match a club like Kalkee or Eaton Boomers, some type of team that wears red with a blue sash. The 11 is very wide.

What do you think jumperfan

Yeah it’s a tough one. Knowing which state it was in would help a lot. I have a list of clubs sorted by the base colour of their guernsey and assuming the cuffs are black and not navy blue it could be one of the following clubs that wear a red base jumper with black cuffs and white numbers:
Knox
Ascot Vale juniors
Stawell
Beverley (although this photo shows the 11 as being closer together)
Redland Victoria Point
Burleigh

The number font being that distinct does help narrow it down. From a quick search Knox and Beverley look to have different fonts - not sure about the other three though. Could also be an older jumper with a different font or an old design from another club though.
 
looking at the jumpers I tried to work out possible of the names, to see if I could find a link. interesting that name is short on the number 8 jersey but longer on the number 11 jersey, so not the same player or unlikely a close family relative to each other (eg brothers). a state would help narrow down possibilities, also a rough idea of year. How long ago did girls start playing in local clubs?

Norwood redlegs?
 
As one of the photos mentions QLD, the two jumpers could be a Qafl team. Blue band around the arms.
The two single beds look like they are from a B&B
The Radio Bedhead does not match the Modern kitchen, possibly a different location
 
Been bugging me for a while then I recall seeing this photo posted in my high school reunion FB page.
They look like they could be Warwick JFC, in WA. I don't remember them having names on but I do recall them being red on the back and they have black cuffs, sorry I cropped the club name out a bit too much but I had already put the dots over the faces by the time I realised. The club has since merged with a nearby suburb and is now Warwick Greenwood JFC but at the time of this photo had more than one team in each age group. I'll post the Fed Police photos to that group as well.

Edit to tag the experts Munners jumperfan

Do you know if they wore that design into the era of printed guernseys? Looks like the current Warwick Greenwood design has a green number panel but definitely could be an older one.

No idea about printed guernseys sorry, but in the 80's there was definitely no green. Multiple teams in the same age division were red, black and white.
