From across the border I couldn't quite fathom the whole Westar Rules thing. I didn't realise this design was part of that (I recall it now, with a demon head on it). I agree that an early design of theirs would make more sense, but I'm happy to see a different design to their usual sash one regardless.
90th anniversary of their 1934 flag against Port? Only thing I can think of.For reasons unknown Glenelg played in their Away jumper for a home game yesterday;
Glenelg chose to wear their away guernsey because it was a twilight match. The club was weary of the sun affecting the players' vision and didn't want them accidentally kicking the ball to the opposition if both clubs wore black guernseys.For reasons unknown Glenelg played in their Away jumper for a home game yesterday;
2024 SANFL Home Jumpers. Changes are as follows:
*without the lightning effect
You're right. I missed that detail for both years. I'll update soon.
No side stripes in their game Thursday:
Ever since the rebrand, I haven't liked any of Perth's branding. Seriously, how uninspiring are those logos?Perth Demons away/clash (?) - inverted design with sash broken up by logo
Never really noticed just how light of a shade Casey went for, I have a feeling it’s lighter than the Melbourne clash which could come down to different manufacturers (VFL standalones and aligned VFL clubs are all with ISC). Looks good though. I suppose there’s that bit of extra freedom they have to go lighter since Melbourne are trying to match an old jumper whereas Casey (Springvale) don’t share the same heritage. Props to them for keeping the back plain blue with no yoke like the old Springvale and Casey jumpers.
think it was made diffent, maybe just for port and maybe williams town who wear royal blue which means no clash kit but stills clashes with home potenalty
The light blue on the Melbourne clash strip would probably still clash with Port, so I think they had a choice between their old clash jumper of plain white with CASEY written across the front or this. I also think that's why the back is plain blue, the extra red might have caused confusion here.
I sent them this re-work ages ago, they did use the font (which is not mine) for a little while before the new PD stuff
Agreed, much more character, do you think the visual of a character portraying Satan or similar could be deemed offensive to potential new members, and or juniors and their families, I know the Perth junior district has a varied cultural pool to choose players from in the metro area which is much different than what it was 20 plus years ago. Melbourne Demons in the AFL have also gone down the same path losing their demon character on logo and marketing.
yeh and it sucks, it was internally done to appeal to the Chinese market (as far as i know) but now it doesn't matter would love to see us bring it back a bit more always wonder what or how a modernized flamming demon logo could look like
