Does it stay black and white or is it just like a placeholder version until they choose maroon or gold for the main colour? Could be a secondary logo too, like the dragons have.
I think I could get behind a coloured version.
Personally I really like the current logo. I like the original too but it doesn't embroid very well imo. Prints well on other various merch though.
Brisbane Times is suggesting it will be in Maroon gold and white, but that the club isn’t confirming anything
I’d miss the chess piece head. It’s become iconic, and was way ahead of its time for usability online.
I feel like it won't be long before simplified logos are 'enforced' within the NRL. Or maybe they are asking clubs to do this already. Quite a few have already moved this way, like the Raiders, Titans, Knights, & Manly.
The main thing for me is that at least with our simplification the design is still aggressive. The Raiders ended up with their logo looking like a constipated dwarf, and Manly's beak is far too stubby, so it looks really compressed and not like an eagle. Some clubs will find this really tricky, like the Dragons, and Parra.
There are actually a few similarities with our current logo, like the shading/ highlighting style. I was terrified when news broke about a logo design in March/April, but I can work with this for sure. It's elongated and aggressive. We got out of it without a stubby, or derpy logo. At least IMO!! Will also look good on jerseys and other designs.
Like most I'm also attached to our current logo and don't like change, but it also carries a lot of trauma ha so change might do us good.
