Huawei sell much more than just mobile phones

Just about every mobile data device sold by the carriers in Aust is made by Huawei. They also sell huge amounts of network switching gear, security and storage appliances along with IP telephony kit

They are in everything to do with comms technology

fair enuf but if nobody knows this.....

Funnily enough Huawei sounds a lot like "Who are we?"

Not if you pronounce it correctly. It is meant to sound like "Wah-way".

By the way, to all of the people arguing over which flavoured milk is best- you'd be amazed how few companies all of those brands belong to.

If you pronounce it it phonetically then.

Newcastle have unveiled their 2017 '30 Years' logo. Disappointingly, apart from the change of font for the number, the inclusion of two stars (presumably in honour of our two premierships), and the inclusion of '1988' and '2017' into the red oval, it is exactly the same as the Knights' 1997, 2002, 2007, and 2012 anniversary logos. Considering the knights head emblem has been modified slightly since 2008, and that this special logo has in essence been used for 20 years now, I really would have thought they would have ventured out and changed it. In 10mins several weeks ago, I came up with one based on the original 'shield' logo that I was hoping would be close to what they might have used for next year. Alas, no.

I should point out that I don't dislike the logo below, or the various versions of it in the previous 2 decades, but I was just hoping for something different this time. Oh well. Maybe in 2022!!NK 30yrs logo.png

Pretty disappointing. Systematic design is fine but the base design needs to be worth keeping. Your one had a good amount of the original logo on it.

Interesting what the NFL are doing with a "colour rush round" of monochromatic designs, the predominate pants colour match the predominate jersey colour. I think it could work really well in the NRL, some teams already doing it could use one of their alternate colours.

I just like that they can achieve uniformity across the comp...

Just think how shit this would look if only half the teams participated and half of them decided they wanted to do it a week later instead.

Well not all teams are wearing them.

In fact 9 teams won't be wearing them, and those that will be are only wearing them when the play on Thursday night.

The Lions are one of nine teams that won’t be wearing their Color Rush uniform in 2016. Some teams were not scheduled for Thursday Night Football and others are visiting teams playing in the game that will wear all white uniforms due to the color combination with the home team not being distinguishable for all viewers.

With the whole anniversary seasons/years there's quite a few teams that fit this bill and it'll be interesting to see if there's any jersey/logo changes.

Souths and Roosters 110 seasons (you can be picky about Souths)
Manly and Parra 70 years (I know Manly celebrated this year)
Panthers and Sharks 50 years (Same deal goes for Panthers this year)
Knights and Broncos 30 seasons
Storm 20 seasons
Titans 10 years
