It’s back, and this year For the Jumper is coming home.
After a couple of years away, we’re heading back to Smith St Hotel, the place where this whole ridiculous tradition began (kinda).
On Wednesday 23 September, footy fans from across the AFL will once again take the stage. Seven months of wins, losses, heartbreaks and hangers all come down to this: bands made up of diehard fans stepping onstage to thrash out their club song and one tune inspired by their team’s season.
It’s part footy, part live music, part deeply questionable display of talent. The ladder decides who plays when (bottom of the ladder plays first), but beyond that, anything can happen once the first band hits the stage.
And most importantly, this year we’ll be raising money for Kids Under Cover, supporting young people at risk of homelessness through their work providing scholarships, education and secure housing.
Bring your colours, bring your voice, and bring the noise.

Keen is how mates lock in plans: see who’s free, who’s keen, and actually make it happen.
