Old Man Rivers 326 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I can't stand this current Top our Coaching Team wear. * Bailey looked stupid dressed in this top for 4 Years * Todd Viney looks all wrong in this gear & I hate to say it but Neeld looks all wrong also in this gear.. FFS reverse the Red & Blue & make this top look mean & lean instead of bright & gay. Am I on my own here? I know its very minor in the scale of things however it has [censored] me off for years & seeing Neeld in this top today just reinforced my thoughts.
Matt Demon 1,597 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I can honestly say I've never once given any thought to it.
Yoda 33 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Agree with you OMR. For what it's worth I also can't stand the over busy new logo either.
rpfc 29,022 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Agree with you OMR. For what it's worth I also can't stand the over busy new logo either. I don't care about the trakkie tops but I love our emblem. Sometimes busy is good. We aren't a cereal we are football - simple sometimes isn't better... Case closed.
Carlos Danger 380 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Am I on my own here? Yes. The merch looks good. And even if it didn't Neeld is here to do a job... what in the blue hell does 'fashion' matter in the scheme of coaching?
Jesse Christ 2,884 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 LOL If somthing this insignificant has [censored] you off for years you must have a pretty stress free life.

We aren't a cereal we are football - simple sometimes isn't better... Case closed. I think the Hawks logo looks excellent. We're not a breakfast cereal but we're certainly not year 10 art project either. Our logo looks like the designer couldn't decide on anything and so decided to cram everything in and hope for the best.

I agree with you and I've raised it on here before, I think we should have a blue top with a bit of red on it. i was actually talking about this at the coach's lunch the other day and was reminded that Hawthorn have blue; so? There are several others that predominately use red now. I reckon the current one looks terrible and it always looks washed out.
Nasher 33,674 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Can't have our coaches looking gay can we? Groan.
Spaghetti 264 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 This thread has to be a joke. Surely...

Emblems should have something to them, details that you are not sure of the meaning of. With a shield and some ribbon - bit of style. Case closed.
Juicebox 633 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Most other clubs seem to be opting for an emblem similar to those in the NBA and other American sports. I'm glad that ours has a touch of class.
Mister Ed 317 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Agree the trackie top's gotten a bit stale. The emblem's fine.

You've made a good case ... but since you've brought a soccer style theme into it, I'll have to say no cigar on an equalizer. You're going to have to do better to beat my keeper. It's still ...

Retrospective 104 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I started out thinking the new logo was busy and ill considered and not a patch on the one it was replacing (the blue square with the red yoke) which I thought was a step back from the stylised demon it replaced which was worse than the......and so-on. Now I think this logo is fantastic, has some story and a bit of longevity......does this mean I'm maturing and developing taste....who knows. I guess I'll know I have grown up when I stop believing what I read on Demonland

Range Rover 1 - Rpfc 0 lol What are you talking about? Apparently googling various logos is an awful lot of effort? And I am not sure what you think you have bested rpfc on. If it's HWMNBN, I think that recent events have clouded all issues to do with that past player. The emblem looks great - the ADL, Haw, Rich, and Lions one I half expect to have cartoons of on ABC3...
The Song Formerly Known As 6,479 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 all blue with a little red would look ace, i agree.
Retrospective 104 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 If the current top was RED it might be ok.... the fact that it is closer to pink makes it hard to love
timD 994 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Nice work RPFC. I appreciate logic and argument. Of course, when you are beaten to a standstill, I guess you could resort to empty bluster and chest-beating. There are plenty of examples you too could learn from. Yoda's given some pointers in this very thread. I love a good chest-beat, i do.
old55 23,860 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 I like our emblem and I don't mind the new Tiger one either.
