Prediction New Club Logo

Personally I'm not part of the group-think around here, i.e. the anti-Power and anti-teal brigade, and I think it's a pretty basic logo IMO. The sort of quality that someone on BF could just whip up. As a token 1 off logo for just this year it's ok, but I'd hope it doesn't stick around.

One of my biggest bug bears is when people draw the prison bars with the cross bar that low. It looks terrible on players when it is that low. The top bar should be dissecting the arm cuffs at a minimum of 1/4 of the way up.

It looks shithouse lower.

Everyone's opinion differs but I prefer the lower "wharf". It emphasises the unique design and distinguishes it more from Collingwood. The bars in the late 1990's climbed up way too high.

I take no credit for the elements used in this design but I added the ‘1870’ and changed the trim colours as others have suggested. The silver is probably my favourite of the three.
 
Sunday October 13th midday the logo will be announced
Just saw on an ad after the NRL GF that Jimmy Barnes is playing the Entertainment Centre next Sunday night. Wonder if they are bringing out The Ambassador for a couple of songs at the launch.
 
Exactly. Why does it need teal to represent the 'Power' side. Black and White are common and 'Club' colours.
The bottom part of the logo is the Power chevron: teal and white. The logo has the Magpies guernsey on top of and intertwined with the Power guernsey. Take the teal away, and this disappears.

I get that there are people here against the Power (even after 20 years), but let's try to be reasonable and judge accordingly to what is actually possible. The teal and the Power aren't going nowhere. They have become part of our history and identity. We may improve how we use them, but not eliminate them.
 
I don't hate it but that new logo is very bland. Fits current PA really well.
More Port Adelaide Plateauers by the sound of things.

There's zero way any new logo should have been anything other than a circle. Magpies have the circle, Power adopted a square, and now for the commemorative logo we have a shield, that the club has never had before?

Also, it is far too heavy handed with the teal, and I like teal. I liked the teal pre-season guernsey. It may have been bordering on homer car but the teal outline should have been split between silver and teal.
 
I'd make a bet that the original design didn't incorprate teal and then someone came along and told them they had too, hence the outline.

I disagree re: the circle for two reasons.

1. It’s just relic of the SANFL template logos. All the clubs had them so it’s nothing special to us.

2. In other sports circle logos are widely used but it’s generally a graphical representation of the ball from that sport e.g. soccer, basketball, baseball. Not applicable to Aussie Rules of course.

Funnily enough I think aesthetically this new logo would look great as a circle, but it doesn’t make much sense to use one.
 
The brief is "It NeEdS To HaVe TeAl"

So you either incorporate it in a way that makes sense i.e. representing the Port River under the wharf pylons, or you just end up with something cheap looking.

I read that as "It needs to have Veal"
 
They should scrap the teal border and replace with silver. In fact, I'd be rapped if silver became one of the three primary colours and relegate teal to a secondary colour.

One of the few things they got right this year was the silver away/clash strip - I hope it stays.
Wasn't silver. Was battleship grey - appalling colour. To get close to silver it needs to be very pale grey, bordering on off white.
