Team Colours

[By a Point]

Are you sick of teams that profess to have one set of colours and which post colours that are nothing to do with their team via sponsors.
Fore example Collingwood is known to be black and white. Why does it post its Emirates sponsorship in RED? Richmond has Jeep sponsorship in green. The AFL should mandate that sponsorship colours should match team colours.

If I was responsible for seeking out sponsorship deals for a business, and the powers that be had ticked off on sporting clubs, then I would actively seek out a club that has opposing colours to those of the business logo, for this very reason. Companies want their logos to be visually obtrusive and "pop" whenever a guernsey or other forms of club merchandise are displayed.

Maybe because the emirates logo is actually red and the bingle logo is actually green.

No I'm fine with it.

So the afl should stop clubs getting millions of dollars worth of sponsorship money because the colours don't match???
Yeh I don't think so.

I think you've thought about this the wrong way. Collingwood has no say in what the Emirates logo, including the colours, looks like. They just put it on the jumper. Emirates is also not going to lose its signature brand logo because of a sponsorship deal. Further to the point, no company wants to pick a team with the same colours because their brand won't stick out on the jumper.
