Would it kill the club to stop making everything predominantly black or black and light grey.
Our colours are black and WHITE and as a collective our supporters stand out better in the crowd and on tv when it isn't just a see of black.
I'm hoping the 2018 version will be better visually. |
Agree wholeheartedly, Swoop, and have been thinking the same thing for years. The last I recall our member shirts and caps being anything but all black (in fact, I think they were completely the opposite i.e. white) was 2010. Would love a bit of that "colour" back in our gear. |
I get a Collingwood polo shirt given to me every year. I HATE the logos. You look like a tosser walking around with advertising all over you. Makes nice shirts unwearable except to the footy. _________________ Ohhh, the Premiership's a cakewalk ....... |

The collar and cuffs should be black. _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

Oh yeah, are you kidding? The wreath is part of our story. It's a funereal symbol, and symbolises our suicide in 2012.
RIP Finals, we won't forget you, and look forward to a brief visit next decade.
And where's the latin Slogan?
Might I suggest:
"ora victoria cladem ereptum, ex Alcorani"
Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory
If Eddie wants his own Coat of Arms I would suggest a Magpie recumbent on a pyre with the motto
"Mendax, Mendax, braccarum tuus inflammare"
I Think you educated gents can guess
And btw, where the hell is the logo referred to in the subject? Why are there so many deleted posts? Or can I guess? _________________ "If at first you dont succeed...

Hey, you know that 125th anniversary logo? Whaddyavrdckon we slap a giant mangled Magpie on it and add 1892? We'll call it, "progressive". |
I haven't yet seen your logo, but I can still tell you that it's better than what they've chosen. Or should we say what Eddie chose,
And probably designed.
There's no chance that a professional firm was used, this is the work of someone who thinks he's a lot smarter than he is, hence my guess. Having worked for 20 years as a Graphic Designer & Art Director I'm getting a bit f*cking sick of the way we get all decisions handed down from on high as 'faits d'accompli' _________________ "If at first you dont succeed...

Ive come late to this thread and all i see are deleted posts where logos might be. That's a shame, I'm not a great fan of the new logo. It's unlikely I will be purchasing any branded gear this year, although i will need some players buttons for the duffle coat. _________________ ___________________

BTW anyone got a members cap yet? Saw a photo on Coxy’s Instagram with an aboriginal kid in a Collingwood cap. Looks too much like the Carlton logo if it is. _________________ 'Collingwood are the Bradmans of Football'
