Fans agree: AFL flags are in a league of their own. As sporting flags go, AFL team flags are among the most flamboyant and colorful you’ll find anywhere in the world.
With a relatively young history compared to many other sports, the AFL punches far above its weight, and attracts fans who are absolutely passionate about their teams. And, reflecting the physicality of the AFL game, team flags often feature designs that are exuberantly colorful, with eye-catching and often heroic motifs that capture the spirit of the game.
With a good number of teams carrying animal-themed names and identities, their flags are no less dramatic – from the roaring tiger logo of Richmond to the Hawthorn Hawks’ stern-eyed raptor, and everything in between.
One of the greatest features of AFL flags is the fact that they freely incorporate animal depictions along with color strips, geometric background designs, and bold lettering, often done in a style that pays no attention to the conventions of flag design or the rules of heraldry. In spite of that, and perhaps because of it, these team flags make brilliant collector’s items precisely because of their originality.
Australian Football League is also unique in that it’s a game primarily played only within Australia, with a niche following. However, it boasts fans worldwide, and if you’re one of them, what better way to show your support than to fly your favorite AFL flag in your hometown?
For any flag fan looking to capture a snapshot of an entire culture, collecting the full range of AFL flags is a great place to start.
