Roost it far 10,109 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) So replacing the letters NB with IG makes what difference exactly? Edited October 6, 2022 by Roost it far 3 Quote

DeeSpencer 26,668 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 Every club allowing their main sponsors to change the background colour of their logo is a far worse step than the 3rd logo changing from apparel to any other company. 1 Quote

DeeZone 10,584 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 I don’t want to upset anyone but I felt that our Indigenous jumper was competing against itself, I loved our previous jumper. I liked the NB but not opposed to IG Marketing is a strange creature.!! 3 Quote

mo64 5,910 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 Given this is the Trade section, have we swapped guernseys with Hawthorn for a 2nd rd pick? 1 1 Quote

58er 6,871 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 So a fashion guru named "Biskit" is the sole judge and jury on our new sponsorship partner IG ( who prob has paid 1/2 mill or maybe even a $mill for the privilege) for their logo in the prime position in 2023. Let's be honest it's small and is not any different really to the previous prime logo sponsor NB ( New Balance). It doesn't take over the jumper and is much more subtle than the Hertz yellow background. Any one claiming it ruins the jumper or is out of line just wants to create a big hoo ha has not much else to grumble about. Our jumper looks good because of its red and blue heritage and our design and the more sponsorship we can gain far outweighs any pitiful grandstanding. 3 Quote
layzie 34,528 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 What's the issue? Too many sponsors on the guernsey? 1 Quote
Kick_It_To_Pickett 3,293 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 The IG looks fine, as it is no different to NB. Any other sponsor, and if it were a different colour, I’d be up in arms. I would like to see the whole jumper though. I do hope NB haven’t got a new placement for their branding. 1 Quote

YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,819 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 I think you might find the NB logo will be replaced with new balance on the back neck of the Guernsey, similar to this years media jacket. Quote
