Could some teams do with a bit of re-branding?

Oh well… One day you might discover that gold is also a variant of the colour yellow.
I'm sure of you typed "gold" into wikipedia, you might find some examples.

Perhaps it's something which pre-dates modern digital printing.

The Brisbane Lions also sing about wearing maroon, blue and gold

Australian athletes wear the GREEN and GOLD, for f**k's sake
I've never heard anyone say our colours are green and yellow.'
I've never seen anyone with metallic gold swimming caps or tracksuits

I love it! I love where this is heading. I think Gold Coast should be "general celestial bodies", Hawks could go with species bird or something.

Melbourne might as well go back to being fuchsias for a bit - they need to try something
To be fair, being the dogs, would open up more scope for logos and such. Westies have had half decent logos bases on the dog concept for the blood and tars.

What is written on the Blue bar?
It doesn't really matter what that says, the logos were obviously compiled at a later date by someone who didn't read what the actual logo said.

Here is the first VFL logo after the club was renamed "Sydney Swans" (after being just "Swans" from the latter part of 1982 through 1983):

Don't forget the Mordialloc Bloodhounds from the VFA. They are just the Bloods now, no canine mascot. Sad.

Those are good logos.

I still think Gold Coast could pick up some more fans by appealing to those who like asteroids but don't really engage with the sun thing. I would prefer them (slightly) if they were celestial bodies. And they should wear 70s disco mesh. And try and look as though they are orbiting Ablett - actually, they've nailed this bit to date.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Coast_Eagles
Colours: Navy blue, white, gold


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brisbane_Lions
Colours: Maroon, blue, gold


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_Coast_Football_Club
Colours: Red, gold


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawthorn_Football_Club
Colours: Brown, gold


One quarter of the AFL, plus all of Australia must be "delusional" for having gold as one of their colours.

I do prefer the Footscray Bulldogs, I think a location that rings true is a good fit. Its a bit lost on the western bit on the East coast to be honest, for me anyway.


Branding is a double edged sword, The Dockers copped one a few years ago, i feel for the better. New theme song which is a big improvement, but utterly short, redesigned jumper with chevrons as the focal point instead of the anchor which created an uproar initially, but now is generally accepted as a better kit. Lost alot of branding, particularly of what a docker is, but now its seems alot cleaner and less gimmicky.


I personally wouldn't change a thing though, i think the GWS Giants was a mistake in branding initially, Particularly after following the Suns, it seemed NBA/NFL Inspired, but now I would be dissappointed if they changed a thing.

Why would anyone that lives outside of Footscray support a team called Footscray?
