The Parramatta Eels are proud to launch its 70th Anniversary logo for its 2017 NRL Season. The new logo commemorates the 70th anniversary of the Club’s entry into what was then the premier NSWRL competition in 1947.

The logo design incorporates a combination of the Club’s traditional logo from its early history through to the introduction of the famous Eel design that is central to our clubs brand identity.

Interim Eels CEO Bevan Paul said that the club takes great pride in its history and in those passionate people who lobbied hard for Parramatta to have a team in the premier rugby league competition over 70 years ago.

"Our 70th anniversary is a major milestone and one we celebrate with all those who have been a part of our club during this time," he said.

“The anniversary reminds us how important members are in our history. Whether it’s the early members in 1947 that helped bring the club to life right through to the Eels members who supported the team with such passion and loyalty last season.

“As we move towards 2017, we have a lot to be proud of as a club and I am sure celebrating our 70th anniversary will be major positive of the new season.”

The new 70th logo will appear on our 2017 jerseys, training gear and merchandise with the Club holding special events throughout 2017 to celebrate the anniversary.

For reference here is the old logo that Parramatta used before the Eel became the official mascot/logo and the basis for the background and banner of the anniversary logo.

Decent logo. But 70 years is such a meaningless anniversary. Clubs are keen to spit out anniversary merch during any year that's a multiple of 5 these days

This was in the Eels members pack for 2017.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Might as well just put THIS SPACE FOR RENT.

Sheesh. Doesn't help that Parra Leagues have a horrible logo. Why not just leave it blank for a more authentic-looking throwback strip?

Is that a new X Blades logo?
Yuuuck.

They seem to have flipped one of the blades in the logo..

Possible Broncos uniforms/gear for 2017 (Looks like a great set if true)

Better than anything Nike dished up in the last 20 years.

 

[Gibbsy]

Those training tops or whatever they are are giant billboards

That heritage jersey reminds me somewhat of a certain Hawthorn jumper...

Yeah not bad.

I like the two white jerseys in that collection.

Teal is a turn-off.

Gambling advertising on sports uniforms looks extremely archaic.

Too much white on the home. What is with the white tails coming off the collar

Same era.
Hawthorn's lasted one preseason game, the Broncos played regular season games in theirs in '94 and '95. It became something of a cult classic while Hawthorn rightfully spit on theirs

I'm thinking it's an emulation of the 1999 jersey. I'm not really a fan of those white tails either- at least on the '99 one, they were seams.



Hopefully one day, we'll see a company do GAZF's Bronco's designs...

This seems so fake because it seems like such a jersey nerd set haha

That is why I put possible. I have my doubts as well, but we will just have to wait and see.

GAZF's Broncos set is bloody perfect

Dragons home 2017 jersey.

Dragons home 2017 jersey.

The most simple, no-fluff NRL jersey I've seen in years. Well done!

 

[GasometerCourage]

Dragons home 2017 jersey.

The best jersey in the NRL for a few years. I hope the clash/alternate is just as straightforward (the current Cutters jersey would be a good starting point…)
