Devils but apparently the Nerdling last night said Warner Bros own the name.

Anything other than Devils would be a shame tbh.

Not too close to Demons? Too obvious?

What about Tasmania Thylacines, or Tasmania Common Wombats, maybe Tasmania Short-Beaked Echindas

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Thoughts on name?

Tassie Tugboats?


ps. I’d recommend choosing a successful second team. Having a second shite team is not much chop

your second team should be even worse than the saints that way it makes you love the saints even more

Nah should be fine. Devils is the only one that is acceptable, it's Tassie through and through.

What about Tasmania Yurts?
Tasmania Western Australians Out of Place?
Tasmania Proposals?

Still in Launceston, if the stadium was here it could be the Tassie Smoking Outside The Hospital In Droves For Some Reasons

That could be the winner right there I reckon. Tasmania Proposals and Yurts has formed my final submission;

Tasmania Romantic Paintings of a Love Heart inside Yurts.

Correct, Robbo’s thoughts on the whole thing are hilarious

Unironically agree with Robbo 100% here.

 

[jwikked]

Tasmanian Teen-mothers

 

[George]

Tasmanian Toothless Tarts

Me too, shouldn’t be legal to trademark an animal. Although I think WB only own the copyright for their character? Don’t care enough to delve into it.

Robbo QC will sort it out

Richo (Matthew not Alan) reckons “The Islanders” ffs. Sounds like a rugby team. On par with when he said the goal posts at Marvel were an optical illusion making the top seem narrower than the bottom.

 

[g_TRAIN]

The Port Arthur Punishers

Hobart Hooters (after the owl species)

Bruny Island Bouncers

Thinking about it now, is there a team named after an entire state? Maybe they aren't even named Tasmania, maybe it's Hobart or wherever the **** the stadium is.

 

[George]

It'll be Southern Storm, I just know it. Rebekah Jayne from Tassie PR will win a contest to name the team and that'll be the end of it.

Had the same thought. Can’t expand to the 28th team if the first team is named after the state! Not very future proof!

100%. Would be like Melbourne v Victoria. Stupid. Just checked and stadium is in Hobart. Hobart Hurricanes, lel

 

[my name was taken]

All of these suggestions are at least a marginal improvement on jackjumpers imo.

Hobart Hobos.

Can rival Hawks with browns, yellows, greens and drinks can be given in a paper bags. To rival shit ideas with Freo being an Anchor, they can just have a random Tas individual each week rock up in a stained wife beater.

They'll be playing some games in Launceston too though

Crows were fine when we already hawks, swans, eagles.

I can’t imagine they’ll be the Tassie tigers but devils is fine imo.

I thought jackjumpers was pretty sick. Very inventive if nothing eise

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Why is St Kilda trying to make it harder for itself to win the flag? No Tasmania until we win the flag.

I thought the Jackjumpers was a bit strange at first but it's grown on me and it's unique, better that than copying US names like the Suns and Giants.
