The name of the second Sydney side, the Greater Western Sydney Giants, is to long. Can you hear the cheer squad "Greater Wester...." thats to long. "GWS, GWS" doesn't sound like a place where a club is from.
The image of the club hasn't been talked about in glowing terms by marketing and image consultants.
The colours don't say Western Sydney. They look like colours suggested by the AFL, like Purple and Green with Fremantle, because they weren't being used. The Giants nickname has been successful in Australian sport. Rugby's Gold Coast Giants, they're gone. Basketballs North Melbourne Giants, won a few titles but they went as well. Then the Victoria Giants didn't last long.
The second Sydney side has to have an image that is New South Wales. The Swans used the image that they already had. West Coast and Adelaide used the colours of their state's well. So why not use the New South Wales colours of sky blue, royal blue and white. What is in Western Sydney is a recognisable icon, the Blue Mountain Ranges. Using these ideas together I have come up with: the Blue Mountain Ranges.
Here are there uniforms:
