News New Jumpers For 2025

[GoldbergsGold]

The long, ‘polyester era’ anchor looks shit, whereas the old seagull looking original one actually works far better with the modern fit of jumpers and amount of sponsors.

The 2000s anchor just dominates the entire strip too much, the tighter and smaller one has a nicer balance to it

The prototype haze one from a few years back looks more thicker down the bottom than the 90s one, which is better because it makes the anchor look more stronger.

This was my attempt at blending the 90s anchor with the 2000s version, best of both worlds sort of thing.

The mid-90s Nike training jumpers had printed anchors that did a pretty good job of what you are trying to achieve:

Could this be?

Are we getting the return of the trading name to become the club name too?

Also, I see what looks like the map of Footscray.

Nope, at least not in relation to this. It was a fundraising campaign for the new facilities (which themselves are based in Footscray) but nothing to do with the name.

Ballarat would do well to switch back to North.

Why?

The Bulldogs have made Ballarat their own

Not really. Even among the Auskickers here Bulldogs barely make a dent. Strangely enough most Auskickers in and around Ballarat end up getting their AFL halftime game down in Geelong.
The local media don't claim the Dogs, apart from the mental health programs which are great, and a big logo on Saxon House, you wouldn't even know the Bulldogs are here.

May potentially be a heatpressed Tex300 or the TW logo used on the merch for Tex's 300th match

The legends game logo and the sponsor logo being on the opposite sides is doing my head in

What was Freo’s reason for ditching the anchor in 2011 anyway? It’s a pretty strong identity, compared to whatever the chevrons are meant to represent.

I think it was a trademark issue with the Levi brand Dockers, though I recall there were some comments about an anchor not exactly being the best symbolism for a sporting club's mascot/emblem, not that I care about that stuff.

Chevrons are a nod to original Fremantle/Unions team of 19th century who wore this design.

Gws vs Hawthorn gonna be a fun watch

Common sense has us in the NS, but we all know common sense isn't an actual thing

gc v freo could be too

Gws vs Hawthorn gonna be a fun watch

Yep we either get a terrible clash, or Hawthorn in one of the most hideous clash jumpers ever made. I'm hoping GWS wear the never surrender so that monstrosity doesn't see light of day in finals and there isn't a clash.

There was a possibility that it’d be GWS v Gold Coast, so thank god it isn’t orange and grey against yellow and blue. Hawks wearing their brown jumper isn’t great but at least you’ll be able to tell which team is which. Hawthorn did wear their normal kit v GWS away last year when they had the brown option, surely they couldn’t let that happen again.

It might have had something to do with the trend towards minimalistic design (similar to Port changing their guernsey around the same time)

 

[NorthernBastard]

I thought Freo changed because the anchor was holding them back, and they want to let it go, however I also would not be surprised if it was mostly due to design preferences for the chevrons, or copyright concerns for the anchor.

Would love to see it back permanently.

The alinta energy logo on the umpires shirts make me have to question if it was the Aus cricket team not the umpires #LegendsGame#LegendsGame
