I know its not a whale because I can buy it online from shops still, but this is just awesome
 
Kinda crossed one off the list, not the player issue I was after but Ill keep hunting for that one. For now this will have to do. Very strange guernsey really, It is polyester and all logos sublimated, including the centenary one, Ive been told that puma never made replica's or retail's with the centenary badge on it. It also has the AFL logo stiched thoughout it like the late 90's puma guernseys had, but to the best of my knowledge that didnt start until at least 1998:confused: It also has a collar??? and the cuffs are much thicker that an old retail version I used to have of the same era guernsey. Very confusing My guess is it may have been made for a memorabillia piece, but I really have no idea, if anyone has any idea let me know. Cheers. CENT.jpg image2.jpg
 
I am updating my Whales list.

Brisbane Bears Player Issue/Retail from the 90s. Prefer 96 one because of sublim'd logos, but will take any.

Footscray early 90s player issue/retail (Perferably one with the sponsor on the back)
Footscray-1980.gif


Fitzroy 1990s (Again preferred to be 96 with sublim'd logos)

Fitzroy 95 Preseason (I'll get this one from the Fitzroy shop eventually.)

Jimmy Bartel Match worn. (Hopefully one comes up on Geelong's auctions soon)

Richmond Pre-season

I've been on a year long search for a longsleeved 'Farewell to Highbury' kit, with Henry #14 on the back, size L.

It's understandable that I've been searching a year and am yet to find one, haha.

A normal shortsleeve with no number on it too good for you? :p

There are a few. Just putting it out there. Lets see what follows.

Absolute whales:
2005 West Coast Eagels Heritage round jumper. Don't care what player, am not fussed if its match worn or player issue. One of the two would suffice. (Worn or issue)

Player specific: 2006 round 10, Ben Cousins match worn jumper vs Geelong. If anyone knows the where abouts, and can help me out with that one, there will be a nice kickback for help, put it that way. But aside from the 05 heritage, will give anything for this jumper. This is my absolute specific whale. (FYI, I'd also take hunters, wirrapandas, embleys or kerrs from this game. Or Priddis ) but this Ben is my whale. Absolutely would throw the house at it.

1997-1998 pre season issue. Either will do, would be more than happy with one of them to the collection. Not after both. But wouldn't knock back both.

So they're my whales.

Next: These are my highly desirables. That is, if they're available, I'd be interested. Possibly very highly interested. Possibly in order.

David Wirrpanda away jumper. Prefer 2000-2006 but if there's anything from 07-09 I'd still be interested. I have a home and a heritage (04 issue) just would like an away. Match worn or issue, I am not fussy. Missed my chance a few years ago on an 05 match worn. But that's the way it goes. Even a 1996-1999 would be nice too. But let's be realistic. Really keen to get the Wirra away.

Chris Judd away match worn 06 or prior. Could accept 07 if it were available. Just prefer 06 or prior. Understand the rarity hence not holding my breath plus the few others who want one. But I'm allowed to want.

1995 home or away. Player issue. Not entirely going to throw the house at it like some other jumpers for now.

A 1996 centenary away. Again. Rare. Hard to find. Others would want. But one I'd like too have but not entirely fussed as I have a home one already. But away would be nice.

A Chris Lewis match worn/issue. Don't care what year. Not fussed if woollen but has to obviously be real. Silk guernsey preferred. 2000 jumper would be nice.

1987 player issue peril. Again, just wanted. Would be nice inclusion.

Then the rest.
Older 2000-2004 jumpers. Just missing a couple of different number designs and jumper sponsors. Nothing to major. Just always nice to have some from every year.

Am considerably missing a few older players who played the 1990's into the 2000s. Like a matera, kemp, jackovich, McKenna, mcintosh, Lewis, banfield, Worsfold (late nineties silk for woosh). These older blokes jumpers would be nice.

Jumper number upgrades. Example: I have a 41 player issue ochre. If I can find a 30 or 44, 28 or 3, thats what I mean about negotiating an upgrade. Or a desirable number.

Just puttin it all out there. Gave me something to write for a Saturday Arvo!!!

Again, am willing to pay helpers/finders fee, providing the item is purchased by me.
Thanks for reading.
