Opinion Adelaide Crows New Logo Discussion

[WaynesWorld19]

Son bought me a bucket hat with the new logo on it. It looks so cool. Made me very happy.

For all the nitpicking around the logo, after the customary 6 weeks adjustment period .....everyone ends up somewhere between acceptance and love for the logo

The logo detail isn't all that important

Is that the same 6 week adjustment period for the old raptor?

I don't recall people stopping buying merchandise during that time

You have to distinguish acceptance between new released and an "aged" logo

People absolutely were besotted with Football Park in the beginning ......until the media started questioning the age, and lack of development at Football Park .....it was then that love turned into hate

Much like when a family friend gets the latest new car .....suddenly your quite acceptable car goes on the nose

So you haven’t seen hatred of the raptor but somewhere between acceptance and love?

You’ve missed the posts where people on this board have said they wouldn’t buy merch with the old logo?

**** you talk some silly words

I refused to buy any raptor logo merch. In contrast my kids just bought me a bucket hat with the new logo on for Xmas. Absolutely love it, so good.

Yep I wouldn’t buy anything with the raptor and for someone who posts so prolifically, surely Wayne saw the same posts and yet still came up with that post

I only bought one piece of merch with the logo on it which was a BLK blackout hat. Cos that was the only way I thought the logo looked acceptable.

I assume by people you mean people not on bigfooty.

There is heaps of the Raptor stuff out there, saw heaps over Christmas people must have got for gifts

Mind you, i saw a few people on the new logo apparel and it just looks so much better.

Got my members pack today and I've completely turned on the logo.
I hated it when it was leaked. On the dark blue background though, it looks elite. Loving it.

Acceptance of the raptor head never kicked in.

This years member kit looks great.

So the 6 week acceptance period isn’t actually a thing

What’s in the members kit?

 

[DJ75]

What’s in the members kit?

Just basic stuff, member card, pin, lanyard and a giant sticker.

I think that's the stages of grief.

Funnily enough i lost my old Crows hat

So I'm in the market too

 

[DJ75]

Would have happily taken a new cap

 

[DroppingTheBall]

Gotta say I thought it was okay when I first saw it, but I am liking it more and more as I encounter it over and over.

Clean. Dynamic. Tricolours on full display. Thumbs up!

So my son bought me a t-shirt for Xmas with the new logo ... kind of a tip of the hat on how much it has grown on us after seeing it in the wild.

I noticed something today while wearing it (having spent too long looking at the damn thing over the last few months) :

Someone has snapped the vertice for the red "wing" to the wrong place.

You can see the correct placement here on the screenshot from the Crows Shop:

I thought - "great quality control for us pleb supporters" - then noticed these:

Looks like a major mis-print to me!!!

Lol. Might become a collectors item

To finish the ongoing story …

Was contacted by the club last week, credit where credit’s due.

“Tim forwarded the below to me to look into, which I have investigated with the AFL, who manage the licensing program and licensee relationships.

Unfortunately, a production error has occurred with the issue stemming from a digital transmission fault to the next stage of production.

We apologise for this and would be happy to offer you a refund or credit for the item. Please me know what you would prefer and I will organise it right away through the Crows Shop.”

Now, the explanation was very much run through the spin cycle … they could have just said “the bloody AFL sent the wrong version to the printers” - but the outcome is very fair.

Refund on its way.

No option for a replacement?

I’ll wait for a polo I like to show up - that I can use at golf [emoji1360]

I’ve got my $20 members voucher to add to the pot [emoji120]
