Hi all,
I need to find a picture of the old Brisbane Bear logo from the early 90's. The smiling one holding a footy or something and looking anything but intimidating. Can't seem to find one across the internet.
If you can help me out please PM me
Cheers,
Drizzle

Which came first.
The Brisbane Bear or the Kenny Koala (Dreamworld mascot).
Both designs amazingly similar.

If the club is strapped for cash this year, we'll just sue the pants off Dreamworld.

Hehe... we'd lose because our lawyer will be unable to prove that a koala is a bear, therefore by calling ourselves the Bears we forfeit all legal rights to the koala.

I'm sure Dennis Denuto could prove that it's the vibe of charactiture's that are the problem.

Who told you the koala was a bear? Did I tell you the koala was a bear? Did the koala tell you it was a bear? Why did you say the koala was a bear?
Its deplorable, unfathomable, improbable!

This should be the "new" team on the Gold Coast. Gold Coast Bears.
Brisbane Lions should hold onto their Fitzroy history and relinquish the Brisbane Bears history and give it to the "new" club to continue it in their own right. Lions ditch the maroon and bring back the Fitzroy red fulltime. Bring back the royal blue shorts.
Brisbane Lions vs Gold Coast Bears....what a derby that would be.
Anyway...I loved those AFL cartoon mascot logos of the early 90s...even Channel 7 preferred using them over the shield logos during telecasts at one point. Would be great if we can find all of them in one place.

The Bears are part of our history, nothing to do with the new Gold Coast franchise, please move along:mad:

I don’t think you are going to get a lot of traction around here with that one.

Using this image as a starter, I did what I could to make it bigger, but because the original was so small, I had to give up a bit of detail in the process. Looks a bit too smooth and cartoony.

This is on the back of our jerseys: BBFFC
Brisbane Bears Fitzroy Football Club
The Bears are as much apart of our history as Fitzroy.

About as sensible as us suggesting that West Coast Eagles and Fremantle Dockers merging.
Why is it that non-supporters of our club with no emotional attachments come up with these wayward ideas?

The Brisbane Lions acknowledge and commemorate the Fitzroy Football Club's history, but it is not "theirs" to hold onto or give away.
In any case, the AFL regards the Brisbane Bears and the Brisbane Lions as the one club with Fitzroy's records held as completely seperate from that of the Lions.
The Brisbane Lions themselves regard the club as having started in 1997 with the Brisbane Bears and Fitzroy records 'ruled off' at the end of 1996. The only exception to this rule is that the Fitzroy and Bears records of any player who played for the Brisbane Lions from 1997 onwards are also included in Brisbane Lions official records. Alistair Lynch played for the Brisbane Lions after 1997 so the club includes his Bears and Fitzroy statistics in their official records. Kevin Murray never played for the Brisbane Lions, so his Fitzroy records are counted as something completely separate.
