I like it....going away from the Green is good and less red is great as there are more than enough takes on red around the league.

Green is now free for GWS!

Vast improvement, actually looks like a footy jumper

It reminds me of when Melbourne released the logo that had the longer pointed M... Still a lot of improvement to go

My first thought too. A cross between the Power and the Victory. Should have just taken the old jumper and replaced the red and green with purple.

Making the purple their own is a good idea. But the biggest problem wasn't the jumper, it was the song, and they've left that.

according to this the song is changing too

heavhos to drop song and anchor

here is more on the song

“Significantly, we will officially call ourselves the “Fremantle Dockers

Rosich said that the new logo would entrench the anchor as a lasting symbol of the Fremantle Dockers Football Club.

“Furthermore our new jumper, which was inspired by the heritage jumper first worn by the Dockers in 2003 at the MCG, is both an important tribute to our past and an acknowledgement of our football origins.

“We are proud of our 16 year history and proud of the jumper and logo that we have worn and displayed with pride in that time.

“Given the nature of the changes to our logo and jumper and their undeniable acknowledgement to where we have come from as a football club, let there be no doubt that our new logo and jumper will be worn with as much pride in the future as they were in the past.”

Rosich also said that consideration to changing the club song was not undertaken as part of the review process to date.

“Now that an arrangement has been struck with Levi Strauss & Co that process will now take place.

“In the 2011 pre-season, the club will seek feedback from members, supporters and the general public on the Fremantle Dockers’ club song, including possible alternatives,” he said.

“One of the options will be to retain the existing club song.”

The club was delighted to reach an arrangement with Levi Strauss and Co and thanks the company and key staff involved for their cooperation.

Agree, state rivalry is really all but gone. Didnt like the fact port had gone with a V and now freo..

That's really great.

Obviously a South Fremantle inspired jumper

Let's not get too protective over the "v", the truth is there is now only one more team with a "v" than there was in 1964


I, too, am pleased to see them jetison their old jumper with the hodge podge of colours.

However, frankly, I reckon they would have been better to go with that jumper they occasionally wore a few years back. It was simply the reverse of their clash jumper. That is, all purple, with a white anchor. Looked good!

I think its a great upgrade from what they had!

I like it that they are now strictly the purple haze

President Steve Harris ... the clown who was CEO at the MFC is now a club President???

Well done Freo, good changes. No surprise that all the new clubs have had to change their jumper designs after 10 years in the AFL. What looks snazzy now, won't necessarily look snazzy in 5 years time.

... now for their song.

agree that jumper was perfectly fine and the anchor kept its originality, the new one looks OK but seems like a run of the mill suburban club jumper

Nope, different Steve Harris.

I like it. But if you add sleeves, it would look like a thugby jumper.

Better than Port's anyway.

I think it's great. Very South Fremantle. Really trying to establish Fremantle as their town, if they haven't already. Great move by the club over there.

People need to understand that they don't have the history or culture that would dictate a logo and jumper like ours. Western Australian tastes, WA market. And it will always have a bit of flair and spunk. I think it looks great. Great incorporation of their colours, and they finally dumped the vomit-from-the-exorcist green.

Looks cheap and tacky - hardly the amount of effort the MFC put in to their new design.

As for the new jumper... I can understand why a fair few Freo supporters are in an uproar. The Dockers had the anchor for 15 years and it was a symbol of who they were and whereabouts from WA they were from.

Just... don't change the song!!! I kinda like it :P Freeeeeo (long) way to go....

Looks like a footy jumper and although not as cool as our new logo I think their new one has a modernish appeal with a sprinkle on heritage too it.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
