Letter from the President: Brand research project​

President Dave Barham provides an update on the club's brand research project.
By essendonfc.com.au - 1 hr ago

To all our Fans and Members,

The Essendon Football Club has a proud history as one of the oldest clubs in the AFL and we have a strong recognisable brand.

We are conducting a preliminary research project which centres around the Essendon brand and its elements.

The research project is in its early phase. Members and supporters have been and will continue to be canvassed as part of this process, in addition to the engagement of multiple Essendon Football Club stakeholders.

We have a proud history of more than 150 years and a deep connection to our members and supporters. This is and will always be respected and embraced.

There is no immediate action to change the club logo or any elements of the club brand. This is a longer-term project with significant work to be completed.

We proudly recognise that our future legacy begins with our proud history.

We will always be called the Bombers.

- Dave Barham

From the President letter regarding 150 years anniversary:

From The President: Paul Brasher

President Paul Brasher speaks about the Dons' upcoming 150th year anniversary.

Reckon we do a Collingwood, have a commemorative logo for a year then unveil a new one?

Please.

I want a new logo for Essendon.

The current one's 8 years stained.

Ugh. Terrible decision but inevitable.

Ugh. Terrible decision but inevitable.

Given it's a commemorative logo, it has some elements of our past logos. I don't think they can go wrong with what we have (unless they bring back the terrible 80s toy plane).

I can see us go with our monogram and a sash on our current shield. Or maybe our current logo on a sash with an updated design for the plane. Kinda like Richmond's 2008 commemorative logo.

It says elements of all previous ones cleverly amalgamated

The flags are so droopy. Did they not know how to erect an upright hoist in years gone by?

Sheeds tied them down so nobody knew which way the wind was blowing.

Can we please change the ******* logo? All I see is the drug saga when I see it.

Seriously, you see that in a logo?

Hard not to when it was on the newspaper and news websites every single day during the drug saga.

Can someone do a photoshop combining all the above in to one logo?

The worse the better.

 

[Runk]

That is class.

 

[quotemokc]

* me that is bad.

Basically just a combination of Melbourne and Carltons logo

 

[GUMBLETRON]

I think the layering could use a little work.



Not in MS Paint obviously.

[GUMBLETRON]

Or, you know, like that.

To answer the OP's question, yes, yes it did.

13 years old this thread is.

 

[ghostdog]

That is class.

Yep. Classy logo. Would have liked more angle on the sashes, but nice logo at a glance.

 

[Mr Bultitude]

Not bhed.

Now the question is do I grab some merch with this logo or wait till 2023 for something more permanent...just glad I don't have to look at cartoon planes.

 

[Doss]

Keep, keep and keep. It’s a ripper.
