Opinion Petition for a new logo?

[SugarShane]

The club should host a ceremonial bonfire to burn all artefacts with the old logo on it

A logo that will be forever associated with an era of abject failure.

And not 'failure' singular, but a staunch commitment to continually finding new and more disastrous ways to botch a football club.

And I was just starting to like it. Trigg was right all along.

About time, but just remember there's always a chance they butcher it and make it even worse than the abomination we currently have.

Hugely exciting news - if I had faith in the clubs ability not to make the logo worse.

I’d rather petition for a new coach.

Seriously, who gives a shit about the logo.

Logos don’t win matches.

Focus on what is important.

I don’t think the guys designing the logo are the same guys trying to teach our players not to suck.

We scoured the industry and decided the best person for the job already worked for us.

Lachie Murphy.

I love his commitment but I really wish he wouldn't work on it on Game Day.. and especially not on the oval, during the match!

You never know with us though.

Hopefully there’s a members vote if there was to be a logo

A vote you say... maybe with an online poll?

Fresh looks on the cards as clubs explore new logos

There could be some different looks in coming seasons with several clubs investigating visual rebrands

I'm pretty old-fashioned, and I don't think a club needs to be centuries old to use a coat of arms like that. But there's no real chance of the above being used in this day and age.

 

[Rotayjay]

A simplified version without the Latin would be OK.

Natus ad magna gerenda (born to great things). Huh.

I wonder - what's the Latin for 'Born to mediocrity'?

No, but seriously why ****ing bother.

Waste of bloody money.

I disagree. I think a club as big as ours can afford to get a new logo and find a better coach.

The logo is the face the club presents to the world. It's how everyone in the club and everyone considering entering sees it.

The Western Bulldogs changed their logo and won a flag a short time later. Richmond fixed their guernsey and won a flag that same year. West Coast brought back the '90s wings jumper and won the flag two years later. Melbourne canned the logo from their shit era and won a flag a short time later.

When your logo is strong, classy and attractive, it makes you proud and want to do your best. When it's a childish piece of crap, it does the opposite.

I want a new logo as much as the rest of us but I really don’t think it has any difference.

One of our gutsiest ever wins came in probably our worst ever jumper.

This is music to my ears, hopefully they don't screw this up!
New hq, new logo, should be nice.

I have a feeling that everyone will love the new logo and no one will complain

Now excuse me, the nurses are here with my medication

I'm a hard no.

I've told Ricciuto the 2 things I'll be happy with when he sit down in front of MS paint

1 - Tweaked original logo
2 - Symmetry, a touch of menace, something that lends itself to quality merch possibilities

I also reminded him to save higher than 72dpi
