Did we ever figure out what the highest number used was?
He changed jumpers twice due to blood rule and there was no more number 7s left. Still a mystery why there was a number 85 made.

Remember how we learned Puma's quality control at Hawthorn in 2004 was pretty poor? Upside-down logos and the like?
Here's Sam Mitchell wearing a sponsorless guernsey late in the season. I don't think he had an aversion to a British bank.

No AFL logo on this West Coast guernsey.
Without wanting to bump an old thread (https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/puma-and-the-adelaide-collar-situation-collargate.1062854/), I noticed Bontempelli wore a 2018 jumper (pre collar triangle) a few weeks ago in Ballarat - he's with 1st year player Bailey Smith here. Mustn't have had any 2019 longies available.

Good spot. Also means he had a different sponsor on the back, with just the generic Mercedes Benz Vans logo.

Ochre with home shorts.
Mark Baguley wearing an AFL jumper in the VFL:
Pretty poor on Essendon’s part that they didn’t have any un numbered spares that they could have prepared for him at the last minute.
Probably because he was playing in a longie I guess
No excuse. Club should have a few blank spares in various sizes on hand that they can apply numbers to as needed, just seems very amateurish.
Surely they had one unused numbered VFL guernsey to put over it?

Probably just wanted to let everyone know he is an AFL player.
It's usually too hot to wear a guernsey over the top of another if the sun is out

Yeah, you can see where they unstitched the Viatel logo. Would have been whatever Primus had on them at the time – no consideration for readability!

That was one of the last times we saw a great North kitTom Brady? Nah there's only one GOAT.
I've been searching through some old AFL records on the Victorian Library website, found some cool Vivid sportsware ads
I got gifted a Geelong singlet, looked in the old cupboard and lo and behold...
Always felt the AFL should ditch their logo off the jumpers, because the current logo looks pretty awful, and allow clubs to have their team logo there instead. Would look much cleaner, leave the AFL logos on the numbers, shorts and socks.
