Adelaide has unveiled a bold new logo.

The new design features a nod to the Club’s heritage by reverting to the original ‘swooping’ Crow and the sharpened claws, beak, eye and wing bring a modern look, which is supported by a return to the original bolder colours being a darker navy blue, richer red and deeper gold.

I’m into it, not sure about the claws though?

I think I created something similar on Logo (it was a design programme, sort of) back in about 1982 when I was in Primary School.

I remember drawing a square with the turtle.
 
I think it may have been an Apple II+. It was at Primary School, I remember the school had one Computer teacher (and two computers to share between 25 students :eek:) who would alternate between the two year 5 and 6 classes and for about 2 or 3 hours each week we would learn the basics (and back in 1982 it was very basic) about computers and computer programming. The one programme I remember using was Logo which was a graphics based programme that would teach kids basic design and command skills.

At home, my dad bought Commodore VIC-20 (the precursor to the 64) back in 1981 that we upgraded a few times before moving to the 64 in about 1986.
Luxury.

I left primary school in 1988 - we had two computers in the library and that was it for a school of about 600 kids.

AFL racism allegations being used as a 'tool for politics'


Collingwood has settled a wrongful dismissal claim brought by a former First Nations strategist who accused club CEO Craig Kelly of a series of racial slurs and attacks.
The Pies confirmed an out-of-court settlement had been reached on Monday with ex-staffer Mark Cleaver.
“Mark Cleaver and the Collingwood Football Club announce that the legal proceedings have been resolved,” a joint statement released by the club and Mr Cleaver said.
“It is requested that Mark’s privacy be respected and the parties have agreed not to make any further statements.”
The Herald Sun revealed in June that Cleaver had demanded at least $250,000 to drop his claim before Collingwood came back during mediation talks with a settlement offer of about $20,000.
It is not known if the settlement included a payment.

The scandal saw Dardi Munwurro, an Indigenous family violence group, dump the club as a partner – “effective immediately”.
In explosive court documents filed in the federal court, Kelly was accused of a series of slurs on Indigenous people, Asians and Jews, as well as physical attacks.
An internal Pies probe cleared Mr Kelly of wrongdoing.

Defending the club’s handling of Mr Cleaver’s complaints and his subsequent sacking, Collingwood president Jeff Browne declared in June: “We’re backing Craig Kelly in on this and we intend to fight these proceedings and see them through to a judgment.
“I’m not prepared to compromise the proceedings by paying any amount of money to make it go away.”
The Pies confirmed an out-of-court settlement had been reached on Monday with ex-staffer Mark Cleaver.

Mr Cleaver had alleged in court documents that Mr Kelly had described Aboriginal elder Aunty Carol – the wife of Dardi Munwurro chief executive Alan Thorpe – as a “dumb old bitch”.
Dardi Munwurro has had a partnership with Collingwood since 2017.
The court documents also detailed how Mr Kelly was accused of joking about putting a “live f---ing possum” in a special room at the club for Indigenous players.
And Mr Cleaver, a Palawa person, claimed in the documents that Mr Kelly quipped “why do you need Google Maps, I assume your people can navigate with their eyes closed” and joked about sending a photograph of a ‘Free Palestine’ sign to a Jewish colleague to wind her up.
 
I wonder if the new north training top is any indication of the logo.
Which also has our current logo on it.

I do find it interesting that the Hawks and Dogs are celebrating their 101st season in the AFL. 😊
