    News North Melbourne's new logo

    Just to follow up on this, the final brand was indeed not by Fraser Davidson/Cub Studio, but by St Kilda firm Canyon. Aside Carlton's throwback wreath (probably handled by Nike) and Melbourne's in-house job, Canyon have now done the three most recent external AFL rebrands (Richmond in 2012 and...

    Discussion Soccer/Association Football New Kits

    Though orange hasn't featured in Sydney kits for 9 seasons, and now exists solely in the logo that appears set to change next year anyway, it will be interesting to see if they use it in any way to respond to Melbourne City's new coat of paint. You're right that it's a good complementary colour...

    This is pretty cool, but also pretty weird -- it features Harnwell in the last NSL kit from 04, meaning it was made 8 years in retrospect. What a niche bit of memorable-labia. I think it's revealed in the original brand press release that one of the reasons they liked 'Glory' because the O made...

    This is the first time Sydney have worn navy shirts, yeah? They just had navy clash socks in the Cup Final, and you can see why they wanted their Sky Blue shirts then. Even though there is the sky trimming, Victory have total ownership of that look -- in a comp of just 10 teams, you shouldn't be...

    News New Hyundai A-League logo

    Maybe it’s because we knew it was coming, but this was predictable in every sense. The 8-A’s has done its job — sure, it had the kitschy Australiana vibe and über-techno typography, but was a radical improvement on the imagery of NSL/Soccer Australia pre-2005. It stood out amongst leagues...

    Discussion Round 12, 2016: Photos and Discussion

    I think the Eagles have moved on from the Ochre and Tablecloth as experiments. The white clash jumper was only brought in to fulfil a stupid AFL requirement. I'm relatively confident the club has consolidated, with the extensive fan feedback, that wings are the only look that will stand. The...

    Discussion Soccer/Association Football New Kits

    I'm very much on the fence with the crest. I respect the process and the sentiment to change, they've rolled it out extremely well and every fan knew it was coming. It's a typical modern interpretation, not unlike Arsenal (albeit, 14 years prior...) in the sense of removing the noise and...

    It was leaked a couple of days ago, essentially the same collar (banal and Reebok-2005-esque) and Union Jack cuff treatment. The only abnormal thing here being the side stripes - which has usually been the domain of Aston Villa. But hey, they're all the rage in Europe with Nike and Adidas right...

    An Argentina strip ala 2014 world cup is so blindingly obvious for Melbourne City, I don't know why the supporters aren't pushing hard for it. It's the last chance they have of claiming a skerrick of identity. CFG get their predominant colour, Melbourne get their stripes, it's a really good...

    Discussion Soccer/Association Football New Kits

    I get the impression this will be more at a strategic and marketing level, but it will be interesting to see what, if anything, comes of it graphically - particularly in the wake of major work for MLS and the Premier League, and domestically the NBL and Super Rugby. If it does coincide with a...

    News New Jumpers for 2016

    And, that ladies and gentleman, is how you ruin an iconic football jumper. Just when you think they're actually using a modicum of design sense, they **** it up and make it look exactly like the 2011 one. That one was fine, because we thought we'd never see the peril as a clash option and it...

    Discussion NAB Challenge 2016: Photos and Discussion

    Have to commend the foresight to create a reversible jumper here, with proper matchday logo arrangement. I actually don't mind experimenting with the brighter yellow, but that dark grey is a big miss though considering it was probably meant to be BLK black let's be honest. Maybe the lighter...

    News New Jumpers for 2016

    That cutout head is the pits, but this raises a good point. Because of the priority clash West Coast have with the Western Bulldogs, navy wings would get the tick for its obvious navy socks pairing - hence why the current white strip, and all previously proposed, uses navy. Eliminating royal...

    News New New Zealand flag

    Not using black would be a waste of a unique and iconic device - it sits alongside Holland's orange and Ireland's green as a single colour defining a nation's identity. Red-White-Blue will always have colonial associations and defeats the purpose of providing a non-Aussie looking alternative...

    Arial Distorted is an abomination. India/Nike seem to sidestep the treatment with having their name as part of the actual design, and are just instructed to remove the sponsor for ICC tournaments. The likes of Adidas and Asics aren't to blame for this typographic defacement. Someone has to get...

    First time a Glory shirt has featured the QBE 'links' graphic. On the shirt, it's not that bad looking: some nice elements with the collar detailing and he's tried something different with that sponsor's break in the stripe. It's just got more to do with Wellington 07/08 than anything Western...
