AFL RETRO ROUND
In 2017, following the success of the rehashed First 18 woolen jumpers, Fox Footy's retro round coverage and constant requests from a small sub-forum of guernsey fanatics on an online forum to return Heritage Round, the AFL decided to capitalise on the demand and introduce "Retro Round" - a rebadged Heritage Round.
This would see over the course of four years a round dedicated to a different era of footy, starting with the 70's in 2017 and culminating in Round 2000 in 2020.
This portfolio will showcase the guernseys that will be worn by 16 teams in each of those rounds - with GWS and Gold Coast being exempt due to the obvious lack of history. These rounds will feature absolute classics, as well as the absolute bizarre in some instances, and presented in an eight fixture format with the matchups.
Designer's note: For this project, I'll be using the AFL 99 template in a simplified manner, with no sponsors.
