South Island Kea

[Perth Red]

I’ve only heard them called that in London and also never heard the team Quart used but might be a regional thing and Dunedin having a big Scot influence

Literally everyone calls them bacon butties in england lol

I know that there is always a bit on bantz between Aussies and Kiwis about the Origin of things.

But claiming Bacon Butty as a kiwi term and/or invention is next level.

I prefer the vegan, gluten free alternative.

I'm sure they'll take your opinion into account.

I also thought Mitre 10 was more of a thing then Bunnings in EnZed anyway?

I’m taking it we are not treating this bid seriously? David Moffet. Nuff said

Dude we have a team with a bunny for a mascot, and we’ve had magpies before so birds are obviously ok

50/50 these days. Bunnings went into NZ in a big way a decade or more ago

Technically rabbits sellers

orcas is still not taken at nrl level

Hardly an improvement

I think there’s something of an understanding that Orcas is reserved for a Wellington related team in NZ.

Someone shouting out rabbit o selling rabbits during the Great Depression because the poor of south Sydney couldn’t afford to eat anything else is an amazing logo

straight to the codes working class roots

Wellington might not get a team for 10 years orcas is way better

orcas vs dolphins

orcas vs sharks

which is going to get kids interested in the club ?

If we're looking for something that resonates with NZ kids in particular, it'd be Kea.

The Dolphins/Sharks thing would be pretty cool no doubt, but the Kea probably only lags the Kiwi for national significance.

Yep. They’re marketable as a mascot, and locally relevant. And anyone who’s met one knows that they’re an appropriate enough animal for a contact sport
