You're quoting NRL teams that represent places, not areas as proof that Greater Western Sydney is unnecessary. Penrith and Parramatta are cities like Sydney.

I'm quoting teams that are direct competition for bums on seats in the western Sydney area.

The Swans, Penrith, Parramatta, West Tigers don't use the name Western Sydney in their name...unless you are referring to a side that plays in the off season with minimal overlap as your main competition? Because if that really is the case that says more about the ineptitude of the Giants than anything else. At any rate the Giants were founded three years before they that shall not be named so that point is completely invalid, if anything it emphases the use of 'greater' is even more pointless!

Well thats a garbage post.

That would only make sense if they didn't acknowledge Canberra as being a separate entity to the concept of 'greater western sydney' through the depiction of the Canberra name on the back of their jumper so it feels included knowing the GWS term does not suffice.

If anything I'd take the Canberra on the back as highlighting and therefore strengthening the greater western link.

I used to think the Greater part of GWS was rubbish, then heard the "it means greater western than just Sydney" argument and how it encompasses Canberra and it makes sense to me.

West Tigers don't use the name Western Sydney in their name.

Of course they don't.

Again, for a lack of a better word, another dullification going on.

It's a nice refinement, but I don't get the spacing between the lines. Would've been nice if the gap between the N and the blue line was equal (it looks equal in full size but when you zoom out you can see the gap between the blue and the red is larger).

Obviously isn't a massive change, but it is NASCAR's first change in almost 40 years. I do like that they didn't go with a modern route, and kept it nostalgic.

New look for Carlton Dry

This came up on the Port board - blue magpie-lark. Apparently their mascot is called Murray Magpie (another name for a magpie-lark).

Looks like they've tried going for the New Orleans Pelicans look.

Can any the South Australians on this board explain the significance of the number 36 to South Australia? Always wondered about that.

Similar to Philadelphia who use 76. As it's both due to a date.

The Syracuse Nationals were relocated to the City of Brotherly Love in 1963 and the team was renamed the 76ers, an allusion to the signing of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia in 1776.
