Coming from the Norf Shinboners, that sounds like a compliment.

Collingwood supporters are tiprats too

It's ridiculous that they took the name for their character from one of our states iconic animals and now we are they ones that have to pay to use it.
What a twisted world we live in.

What came first? South Sydney Rabbitohs or Bugs Bunny?

Who should be suing who?

Sylvester the cat and Felix the cat become cats and may do double lawsuits against Geelong Cats.

Who owns the Heckel n Jeckel brand? Crows could be in trouble.

Did Frosty the Tiger come before Richmond used Tigers. Kellogg’s can come knockin…

Paddle Pop?

Are Harvey Comics still around? Hot Stuff Demons.

Who owns Skippy?

Roger Moore is dead… but who has the rights for the Saint? (Actually this is the only one that probably breaches copyright infringement of the Saints logo in the 70’s).

Green Giant corn…

Those are demons

There is only one Devil - Lucifer, Satan, Morning Star.

Demons are his servants.

I only just discovered why so many people were suggesting the Trouts.

Before now, I thought it was a decent idea.

I can't on here, but you're more than welcome to have a Google. It's a wild ride.

The Maps one is funny, but I assume it's also a dying joke considering social beauty standards of the past 25 odd years.

 

[justlookingaround]

oh.
I think I understand now...

Devils is the oh-so-obvious choice. Not saying it isn't the right choice but maybe there are other options that I'm just not aware of. I certainly don't like intangibles like the Blues or Power... give me a proper mascot.

Is there any news coming out yet re consultation on the name and jumper?

I'm probably less interested in the outcome and more interested in how they engage the community to come up with them.

Yes. In November there was a public survey emailed out to all people who had registered as Believers. The survey was all about the identity and values that Tasmanians think should be associated with their footy club.

Throughout December and January, Jack Riewoldt has been hosting public forums in footy communities all over the state to hear about the history of each community and their unique footy stories.

Data from the survey and forums is being collated and it will be used by the board to determine the name, colours, guernsey etc. all of this is going to be revealed at the club’s official launch in early March.

 

[Tandy]

As unique as TurboChooks is it just won't happen. It'll be Devils. I think the AFL will make sure of it. I do miss that the Talent League side is not called Mariners.

 

[Supercoach Bargain]

The Brother-Cousins.

Everyone will want to get behind them........

It's fairly obvious that they're going to pick the Devils as a nickname and wear predominately green, right? It's essentially the same scenario the Crows found themselves in when they picked a very similar nickname and colours to the state team. Creating a state team feel should help ease the whole Hobart v Launceston thing too. How could any young Taswegian not get behind a team that looks very similar to their state team/s and plays in both Hobart & Launceston? I'd imagine they'll also play home games in other parts in Tassie during the preseason.

Yes, it was never going to be anything else. The third ground (used for some pre-season, AFLW, VFL games) will be Dial Park in Penguin. Then there’ll be a decent facility and presence in all three regions of the state.
