News Retro Round - Fremantle

[Freo88]

Unsure if this is just a freo thing.

Dockers to wear a 1995 inspired guernsey against Essendon. I think it looks great.

Everyone else’s thoughts?

I love how clean the Woodside logo is on the red, rather than being in a box like the standard jumper.

Did Freo wear this jumper in 95 though? I thought they wore a mostly green jumper in their first year.

this was the Home, green was the Away

While I prefer the later edition of this jumper, this is ******* amazing

 

[Prison bar Pete]

I hope this happens: I've been waiting for it!

 

[Sparkle]

This is amazing. Up there with the Bounding Roo for Jumper of the Year

Well done Freo!

 

[Freo88]

The distinction between the early freo home to the later years was the fatness of the anchor. This is peak 1995.

Love it, would have copped one if they wore the green away though.

Glorious

Yeah this is great. I actually prefer this less life-like anchor. It feels more like a proper footy jumper the way the top panels curve. You can knit this.

Is this part of Freo's 25th year celebrations?

It was a number of years into Freo's existence that I realised it was even an anchor.

 

[TheHumanShoe]

Looks beautiful. So happy that they've done this.

Yep - the small little 25 year logo is on the collar on the back.

Freo played the bombers in our first ever home game (at the WACA no less) hence the chosen opponent.

 

[Smartys Power]

That’s ******* slick!

Looks heaps better with the shorts and I do appreciate how they've drawn the anchor – it's not the proper, heavy looking 2000s version but the wonky stitched one that looked a bit more like a seagull. Really dig that.

Weird we didn't wear it for round one and a bit disappointing we didn't bring back the green away jumper, especially for away games in Melbourne.

Would've been really cool if you brought back both: wear the away jumper at home to Geelong (first ever win) in Round 20 and then wear the home jumper at home to Essendon (first ever match) in Round 22

 

[StevieJ83]

Would love to see it being worn against the Wings in the upcoming derby.

 

[its been done]

Way better than their 25 chevron jumper they wore against Norths. It's a shame they're not wearing their 1995 away "green machine" this year as well though.

I miss the red and green on their guernseys. They need to bring back the red and green into their regular guernseys like so

 

[CollarJazzKnee]

Bring it back!!

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

They should have got Andrew Wills out for the photo shoot.

Cool pic. I initially thought it was just a shot of Hill and Walters with some of the club's Indigenous leaders, but then looking at the Dockers' playing list, they're also two of just six remaining players to have worn the anchor at some stage during their career. The others being Ballantyne, Fyfe, Mundy and Sandilands.
