Made by someone on this board, sorry forgot whom :/

It was chibimatty. I think from memory they butchered his original attempt.

Can the original be found anywhere?

The basic idea was that the design would be a tricolour where the Stickman was the white between the red and the black. The back could be tricolour OR as I preferred it, could be full red, which could work as a clash when paired with the white shorts against some of the darker-guernseyed teams.



Unfortunately due to advertising placement, the idea of the stickman covering the whole of the front of the guernsey had to be compromised, so it became more of a "Blackburn Rovers halves" design instead, with the stickman being more like an emblem/centrepiece, rather than an integral part of the "red, white, black" colouring of the guernsey. Also, they squashed the halo a bit.

Here's the alternative Bears logo (mentioned earlier) on a drink bottle!

What was this one, an early prototype? (The jumper, not the player lol)

I like it

Looks like a young Treloar

I've been searching through some old AFL records on the Victorian Library website, found some cool Vivid sportsware ads

 

[Bunk Moreland]

For a pretty rank bit of gear those Vivid jackets were quite popular.

And durable - you still see the odd one at the footy!

nuthin'

The Kick for Kids logo is above the AFL logo on the Bombers and underneath on the Kangas.

I can't remember any other logo that's been in a different place for each team in a game?
Usually they have a standard location... strange for sure

The original worpel?? Why’s that?

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Are You serious?

That's Shane Tuck?

Re-read the post where it says "Shane Tuck playing reserves for Hawthorn in 1999, the original Worpel." It's just above the pic of Tuck.

Couple positives to note
- ISC and North would be a good pairing
- That’s probably the best recreation of the ISC collar I’ve seen for a long time.

At least ISC would have a full stripe
