If I were truly optimistic, I'd say 5 years.

i can confirm the names of both clubs are omitted from the logos

In my memory usually the main logo is pretty much touching the Centre Square - today there's enough space for a whole re-paint between it and the Square!

It certainly worked for the pre-match Anthem stuff.

Would’ve looked so much better if they had the club logos facing the main broadcast wing too

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say they’re not idiots, Telstra probably just pay a lot of money for the rights to the camera facing logos.

Would look better if the club logos faced the same was as the rest, doesn’t matter about which side they are on

They could paint them on the wing then

Oh yeah for sure but that doesn't mean they can't paint the club logos facing the camera, or put them either side of the AFL logo on the wing so they're nice and visible for the huge TV audience that every other logo is painted for. And most people in the stands wouldn't get a good view of the club logos where they are either so not like it's for the people there.
Even before Telstra one logo was on the far side from the camera so it's just a case of they've always been thrown on without thought to visibility on TV and nowadaya it's even more clear that is the case.

The team on the red 50m arc has lost 4 GF in a row now...

I do agree having them on the wing would look better but once again, this is probably due to branding guidelines from Toyota, or at least this is usually the case in my experience in dealing with ground markings and advertising.
The logos on the 50m arcs are facing the correct way as per how the 50 would typically face on a footy field. Honestly reckon it would look off if you had them turned 90 degrees.

If they were paid sponsor logos I bet they'd face the camera and I reckon we'd get used to it just like the Toyota logos in the goalsquares.
New idea for clubs - do up the goalsquare in the same design as the front of the guernsey!
