Bye Bye Bombers: Logo Change Considered

It's a bit of an epic effort of manufactured victimhood to turn

'A club is considering making less use of it's mascot image in branded material'

into

'the woke police are coming for everything'.

I mean...

    Is this just because the logo looks like it was taken from clip art in the early 90’s?

    Inspired Bombers logo change. I'm all for it. Kudos to Dee Viney Intervention.

    Loving the nickname suggestions too:

    • Essendon Pharmaceuticals (thanks Witches Hat - gut laugh!)
    • Essendon Danks (thanks demon 3164 - simply undeniable)
    • Essendon Pr*cks (my suggestion)

    Whats with all the lame references to drug culture? I don't get it.

    The individuals who were party to it  have long been out of the club.

    The individuals who were party to it,  are either dead (Bruce Reid), or have long been out of the club.

    The word " culture".... most apt.

    This is the crux of the matter.. their culture.

    The personas...one thing.. the context was the over-riding culture of the club.

    Don't implicate Bruce in it. He was a legendary human being. He had nothing to do with it.

    As my mate Huw says, you can sum Essendon up in two words . . . cul cha.

    Wokeism so damned insidious makes some people nervous and questioning our norms and beliefs, fortunately not those that have a strong culture and belief system supported by reality and history.

    In Kenya  the house keeper and the nanny were always removing the Demons kit from around my son’s crib. They were really disturbed by it, really had to explain that I was not a satanist and going to sacrifice the boy!!!.

    Likewise, Bombers kit not popular in the places I’ve worked (Lebanon/Sudan)

    I'm not sure what you mean here? Can you elaborate?

    Well I think ‘gliders’ is a far more environmentally appropriate name than ‘bombers’

    Though “bomber” can imply someone / something that bombs out.  Like finals.

    Nothing?  Was he blind, deaf or mute?  A doctor’s first duty is to his patient, not his paymaster.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
