Competition So You Think We Won't Clash - Week 15 - West Coast Eagles

[Nickimus Rex]

After 6 weeks without a win and narrowly avoiding the wooden spoon, GB Designs took out the coveted Collingwood trophy.

Now, shut up, idiots.





This weeks team is the West Coast Eagles and to celebrate their gloriousness their colour is not just one colour, not just two colours but a fantastically delectable ochre.

I have seen FT have a spirited debate about recolouring the eagle head, you may get a slap for this one

The issue isn’t “recolouring”, it’s the fact the logo uses negative space to create shadows and depth, inverting it just looks wrong.

I'm not sure exactly what attracts me in this design, but it looks awesome. It lacks ochre, though. Would there be ochre shorts?

I think that an ochre panel on the back would do wonders to it.

ELITE

One cool thing would be if you had make the bars into some kind of 'winged' design, thinking of BW's Busselton Hornets from a few years back.

Theoretically this wouldn't be accepted due to it kind of being a recolour of an existing design and is more navy than the actual ochre. Honestly though, do you really want to give the Weagles the PB?

[The Victorian]

Wanted to do something like that but thought it would look to similar to a recolour!

Admittedly, it is quite close to a recolour, but it looked too damn good to anything else to it
