Competition What is The Greatest Jumper Ever?

[TheLoungeLizard]

Well FJGD,

I was thinking earlier, what do we consider the be the greatest jumper in the AFL?
Is there one design/on template cut that is universally considered the greatest or are there simply too many options?

So, I say we put our collective minds (sorry Crows fans) together and find the greatest jumper in the competition!

The Rules:
- To enter a jumper post a photo of it in this thread (can be from FootyJumpers.com or an action shot)
- You can enter as many as you like, however don't spam up the thread with "ha ha this jumper sucked, it'll be funny to post it" (Ochre not included)
- It can be any jumper that has been worn in a sanctioned match (Mero style) so no you can't include this seasons Richmond indigenous jumper unless it gets worn before this ends
- Yes, you can include State jumpers and state league jumpers (Norwood fans)

How does this work?
Glad I asked, once we feel enough jumpers have been submitted, I will pile them together and put them all up for a vote and for the jumper to be considered the FJGD Greatest Ever it must win by a majority

Let's 'ave it!

You can include any version you like (templates also play a part in this)

tonnes more I could choose but just wanted to make sure these ones were in the conversation, we will see if the rest get nominated by others.

also, in terms of technicality, the Carlton jumper should be long sleeves, I just don’t have the time atm to find a photo!

I actually really love the Southport Sharks rebrand. If you consider the logo as well (which is incredibly good) I think it looks mint.



Also, slight bias, but i love this one

Do you prefer the classic eagle over the modern one? I think the modern is very clean.

Yeah the modern one is awesome, I’m a big fan, but it’s impossible to top that OG logo and the wings on the woolen jumpers. Have both versions of the OG woolys hung up above my desk in my home office, including my whale 1987 home with the Burswood sponsor patch.

This years iteration is my favourite AFL version of the bars for sure. I really like the current ISC template. As for the SANFL it’s hard to pick because of how many great sponsor/logo combos we’ve had.

TheLoungeLizard you should absolutely do this as a knockout bracket poll.

TheLoungeLizard you should absolutely do this as a knockout bracket poll.

Certainly with a seeding system in place though, just to make sure that jumpers widely accepted as some of the best ever (bounding roo, original wings) don't meet each other too early in the competition

I personally think the Southport shark have the best logo in football

I also would think a knockout comp for this would be fun. Perhaps this could be a nominations thread?

And a few state league favourites.

Big ups for Prahran. These are some of my favourites from the VFA

Just a classic really. Ideally I'd grab one with the VFA logo but still very nice

Something a bit different but this jumper was cool, especially as a long sleeve

This Frankston jumper is criminally underrated, with sleeves I think it probably takes the cake as the best jumper

1993 Grand Final, unfortunately it was a muddy day so no real clean photos but flagsssss

Always thought this looked cool. The yellow may have been better though.
