I've been dabbling in jumper designs for GC/WS/Tas... so i thought i'd have a go at a Fremantle alternative. A trident could be more menacing than the current anchor, and Neptune would make a brilliant mascot... not sure about the nickname... i just re-coloured an existing logo used by a football team in the US. Waves is a bit lame... perhaps Tide?

Fremantle Tide isn't a bad name actually.

I dunno about the pitchfork though.

It aint a pitchfork but I agree it looks like one on the jumper.

Fremantle Tide isn't bad at all.

If we're going down that path, we could also just make our name Fremantle Haze aka 'the Purple Haze'.

I've always thought the jumpers would look better just purple and green, but that's neglecting the reason we had red and green in the first place.

A pox on you all.

Leave my football clubs jumper, song and colours alone.

I will allow the purple haze jumper and the white reverse strip ...but that is all.

The Waves .....please your all killing me.
 
Amen, stop ****ING WITH OUR CLUB.

We chose to love it, warts and all, nothing will change that. Those wanting to change it sound like a ****ing 15 year old boy suffering a massive identity crisis.
 
yep, leave it alone. just because some douche (rosich... cough cough) feels the need for a change we all need to get in line? rubbish this is.
 
I thought I liked our current jumper, but I think that the trident is a good idea. It looks pretty cool...
 
For the record, i actually like the Freo jumper, colours & mascot. The song could be better but is much better than Port's at least!
Anyway, I just thought i'd do a re-design for the fun of it... in my opinion there are several other teams in need of an image overhaul before Freo. The early signs aren't good for the GC either!

To me this seems the most obvious choice.

The best jumpers in the comp have 2 colours (not 3/4 or 5) and the purple haze as a home strip with the white as the alternate are frankly 2 of the better jumpers around and amongst the best of the jumpers designed by any of the "interstate" clubs.

No idea why Freo havent just adopted those 2 already.
 
I love this post on the main board from a Hawthorn fan.

You can't win games so it's your jumper's fault? What rot. Freo have amongst the strongest and most unique on-field identities in the afl. The anchor is great, as is the "Docker" identity, and it's worn in. In spite of a bad year and an inability to crack the upper echelon of football, Freo has earnt some respect as a club that will be completely washed away if they opt for "takesies backsies" after over a decade of brand establishment.

Freo, you're one team I like barracking for when the Hawks aren't playing, but words cannot express the utter contempt in which I will hold you if you change your jumper and/or nickname just coz you haven't managed to live up to your potential yet.
THE ANCHOR STAYS!!!

If you can write a better song however, maybe that would help provide better incentive for your players to run out the game a bit more emphatically...

Nah your cool mate ....a positive contribution. You may remain pox free.

I like our song ...Richmond have the best song by far (it is the Dubai Dingoes club song too and it rocks).

Freo is Freo, we are the Dockers - we wear purple and we ahve an anchor on it.

If your more interested in brands and marketing concepts - there is a club I can recommend only a short pop of a champagne cork away.

Thanks for that, Shed. I've had a few goes at articulating what mess is saying already, but haven't hit it as well as he did yet. :thumbsu:

Mess, if you read this, great post :thumbsu::thumbsu::thumbsu: :)

Except the song bit. I still love it. It might not be the most awe inspiring song ever, but I love it because it's OUR song.
 
Use this chance while you've got it - change the jumper. As a footy player I could just imagine the amount of sh*t you'd cop in a purple jumper from your opponent - sure it really means nothing but that doesn't stop it from affecting your thoughts and your game, and once things start going wrong, you start thinking about what the spectators are thinking of you and your team, and it becomes a downward spiral - which is where Freo are now.

Sure you've got a lot of talent coming through and there looks to be exciting times ahead, but why not make it a real fresh start for Freo and get it right this time. Colour? Change it. Symbol? Change it. Team Song? There are worse out there but there are also a lot better. Nickname? Not so bad but does it motivate you? And the players? - "I'm a Docker" - wow, huge.

Having the worst jumper in the competition, both in colours and design, hasn't stopped West Coast from making regular appearances in the finals. Perhaps there are some other factors involved in achieving on field success.

I think Freo's biggest identity is the purple. I love it and i think most supporters do.

If a player is weak enough to let an opposition player get to them because they are wearing purple then they shouldnt be playing for Freo, let alone AFL.

Whats wrong with purple?

anyone who has a problem with wearing purple or even pink for that matter is OBVIOUSLY not comfortable enough with there sexuality

obviously the immature eagles supporter LUCKY must be a young teenager who is still discovering his sexuality

Now come on Yaka, lets not turn this into a Freo v West Coast blog. You are right about the fact that there are other factors invloved in achieving success, and I could make the obvious statement about that but I won't.

And Tripple... My closest friend loves the purple colour as well, but how about you conduct your own poll and ask any footy players you know "would you prefer to wear a black jumper, or purple? Red or purple? White or purple?" I'm not saying it's the main problem, but when you're team isn't going well, and hasn't been for a while, the last thing you wanna hear as a player is some opponent ridiculing the colours you're wearing. Heck, some opponents can make fun of a white jumper - it's not nice out there.
