Ah.....no
I think this is a stupid move TBH.
I mean why aleinate your existing supporters and also distance former Kings fans?
The Spirit? FFS it sounds like a netball or womens hockey team.
Ill support them because it's basketball but I still think it's a wrong move to tear up the Razorbacks brand and history.

agreed but the big news is they signed jason smith :shock:

 

[Panthers_God]

howd they get jason smith??

They need to get Worthington. That guy is a hero to the Sydney fans.

I guess this means Hinder, Carter etc will also be signed???

Spirit is such a gay name, surely there is something better they can come up with.

 

[Choppies]

Yeh Worthington would be nice........at the end of his Dragons contract.
Hinder is a Crocodile and Carter I don't think will get a look in.

The old Sydney Kings contracts were torn up when the Kings folded and only Kendall, Tovey and Carter are still un signed.

 

[Tom Shines]

The Razorbacks brand was stuffed when they moved from Liverpool to the Sports Centre anyway.

 

[Stranger]

Hate it. Just hate it.

The kings are the best marketing brand the NBL has in Sydney... The Razorbacks are a poor poor second... As for the Spirit? :lol:! Sack the marketing department or the creative department now.

come on everyone lets get behind the Spirit.

I recieved my new season membership prices yesterday. I spent 10 years as a Razors member and I am not turning my back now.

Plus we have signed Derrick Low this I am excited about.

Jono.
With the Spirit virtually being a re-branded West Sydney Razorbacks and with you being a fan from day 1.
How does it feel to lose the Razorbacks identity?
Personally I think the only thing they should have done is drop the West from their name.

At first I was very cut about the whole situation. How ever after time went by I realized that I was to passionate about basketball to give it up completely.

I Will miss little thing like the song "shout it shout it here comes the razorbacks" and the Mascot Jack.

But things change and if I take a step back I know this is for the better of Sydney basketball.

 

[El Coconuto]

This tells me everything I need to know about the team...

If that isn't the lamest, ugliest logo EVER then I don't know what is. Ugh!

 

[griffo346]

thats the worst logo ive ever seen in basketball

 

[Southern Rooster]

thats the worst logo ive ever seen in basketball

I'd love to knoiw where you have seen a worse one in any sport.

Disgraceful that is.
